Improve performance when there is a lot of teams
I want to try the new Teams Migration feature, and we have about 35000 Teams - It takes about 1 hour to search that list, and when I finally get the Team I'm searching for, I can't select it

Ignore Required and Unique columns when copying old versions
If a new column us added to a list, the data filled in, and then made required the old versions of the items in that list will fail to copy. It'd be great if this limitation could be removed.

Search in migration source/destination selection screen
Enter SharePoint URL in GUI instead of having to browse a list and also save credentials.
Right now it's painful to use the GUI when we want to select/find a SharePoint site to migrate. It would be helpful if we could simply go to the "Copy" page and then simply search or enter the URL of the SharePoint site to select it, rather than have to scroll down a large list when we have thousands of sites to "find" it. You can search in Teams so I'm not sure why you can't search for SharePoint sites...

Searching on "Copy Structure and Content" form
As of now, ShareGate does not offer the option to search through the Copy Content and Structure user interface. If you have a hundreds of sites you are not able to search here. It would be a great help for the migrator operators to add a search box to this form.

Ability to temporarily take over landing page to communicate to users about upcoming migration or changes
It is difficult to get business owners of sites to communicate with their user base. They have mixed success in getting the message about site changes in front of their users. The ability to create a temporary page to communicate changes would be useful in addressing this. As admin we are asked by site owners how they can let every site user about the changes and in the event of a large multi-site migration this is too much of an overhead to try and retrieve lists of email addresses for SP2010 and SPO using PowerShell.

Allow import of directories with the system attribute
Both the pre-migration analysis as the migration filter out ‘system’ directories (folders with the ‘system’ attribute) when doing a fileshare analysis/import. It would be nice to be able to include them (be default, or by optional toggle).
Now we get an incomplete report because it doesn’t contain those (sub)directories.

Import Teams Channel Posts from CSV file
Recently in Teams migration there was an error coming up only for posts in the "General" channel but everything else was in other channels. So the idea is...
- be able to export team channel messages with SG PowerShell as csv file
- import messages to new channel from csv or similarIn this case there are hundreds of Teams that was migrated successfully except the posts in "General" for those teams. This could also be handy for some kind of teams merge etc.

Make "merge with site" the default migration action
Can you please give us the ability to make "Merge with site" the default action instead of create sub-site? I mean we do not even create subsites any more and the option is disabled in the tenant, and even Microsoft does not want any more subisites. So why is create sub-site still the default option in 2022? Please Please Please let us change the default.

-Teams to Channel migration in the same tenant
-Ability to move Teams into channels under a new Team without the limitation of an html file that holds most of the conversations. The html file limitation is terrible in the current version and we have had several customers not choose this tool specifically for this reason only.

Remove disclaimer for Channel Post
During the migration of a Post under a Channel, we leave a disclaimer of who migrated the Post and where it is from. Removing it would be great
