Case study: Smollan Technologies' Argility successfully completes world first – highly complex Google Workspace migration
Argility led the Smollan transition, migrating 9 064 users across 25 companies, 19+ countries, eight languages and 24 time zones over 547 days.
Smollan Technologies, a global retailer solutions company, successfully migrated its entire workforce to Google Workspace without disrupting business operations. Argility, a Google Workspace Premier Partner, led this complex migration across 9,064 users, 25 companies, 19+ countries, eight languages, and 24 time zones over 547 days.
The team transferred 7.01 petabytes (PB) of data, 2.4 billion emails, and approximately 290 billion documents with a 99.77% success rate and zero operational downtime. This achievement highlights Smollan's ability to run such migrations at scale for any enterprise client. The migration, executed on Smollan's own infrastructure first, demonstrates the company's capability to transition any enterprise from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace seamlessly.
The operation was made possible by Argility's 15 years of experience in running its own business on Google, migrating its infrastructure, and refining its strategy. Argility's migration was guided by the Google's three-pillar framework: technical deployment, change management, and project management. The migration was phased by cohort and governed by a dedicated project management office (PMO).
The migration resulted in faster global collaboration, stronger connectivity and security, and a more seamless employee experience with Gemini AI embedded across everyday tools, positioning Smollan as a more connected, future-ready, AI-enabled organization.
