You can also select specific types like emails, contacts, calendars, or tasks based on your needs. This flexibility allows you to migrate exactly the data that matters most to your organization.

Exclude Standard Folders:

This feature allows you to tailor your migration by excluding specific custom folders that do not need to be migrated to the target server.
