Zoho WorkDrive

This means that firm members can typically access Zoho WorkDrive from anywhere with an internet connection. When they need to use Zoho WorkDrive, they enter Zoho WorkDrive credentials into a Zoho WorkDrive website and are able to access all their data from there.

Document storage systems are primarily concerned with storing documents and organizing them in a folder hierarchy. While profile attributes may sometimes be possible, this is not often how the system is used.

Universal Migrator retrieves data from Zoho WorkDrive through officially sanctioned API connections. You will enter an Zoho WorkDrive username and password to ingest the data.

In Zoho WorkDrive's backend, documents often have illegible file names like "1357219.pdf". Universal Migrator will automatically humanize these names to familiar ones, like "Motion for Private Process.pdf", ensuring firm members see the same human-readable names post-migration as they do when viewing documents directly through Zoho WorkDrive.

The Migration Specialist will need an Administrator username and password into Zoho WorkDrive in order to extract your data.

Because data is extracted from Zoho WorkDrive via the internet, the migration can be run from any suitable location.

A member of the firm will need to complete a small spreadsheet mapping users from Zoho WorkDrive to users in the new system.

The Migration Specialist is the person who will be performing this migration. They may be a member of Universal Migrator's own Internal Migration Team or any IT professional who has completed the Universal Consultant training program.

The Firm Administrator is a member of the law firm who can serve as a dedicated point of contact, make decisions, and answer any questions the Migration Consultant may have. This person should be readily available and is typically the managing partner or office manager of the firm.

With certain vendors, submitting a Notice of Termination/Non-Renewal can prompt a shift in cooperation: some will restrict or revoke export and backup capabilities, or limit the volume of data you're able to download, making migration more difficult.
To guard against this, best practice with any vendor, including Zoho WorkDrive, is to withhold notice until you've been fully live on your new system for at least 30 days. In practice, this means your migration should be complete approximately 45 days before your notice deadline.
