  1. Add a longform link to the emails sent by ShareGate

    Some companies' email system converts messages to plain text so if there is a "button" that is included in the SG message, it often is not materializing.

    It would be great to add an alternative method to access the links sent.

  2. Export licenses activations

    Since the license activation page was revamped and moved to Sharegate.com we are unable to export the data to spreadsheet, nor copy the data from the page into Excel in a workable format - the pasting goes across multiple lines and runs the data together without spaces in between, rendering the data useless without manually going in to fix it.

    Please either add an export to spreadsheet option, or fix it so we can copy from the page and paste into excel formatted correctly across multiple columns:

    Activated by

    Email

    Activation name
    Activation date

  3. Option to include activation in a silent installation script

  4. Licensing: 1 licence for all users from a server

    It would be nice if the licence would work for all users that are connected to the ShareGate server. If you want to prohibit the multiple use of Sharegate you could allow only one SahreGate.exe to run.

    The advantage would be that you would not have to register/ unregister licences each time another user would want to run ShareGate

  5. Provide option to stop ShareGate Desktop checking for Apricot activation

    Provide the option to turn off ShareGate Desktop's checks on the activation of Apricot, to avoid raising flags on the Azure admin portal.

  7. Create a Mac or Version that runs in a Web Browser

    With the huge change in the number of people using macOS these days, why isn't there a version of ShareGate that runs on Mac or at the very least like just about every other app out there....... on the web in a browser?

  9. Ability to export Manage Activations page report as CSV

    We have 100+ Sharegate licenses that we provide to departments in our organization with fee. It is very hard to build reports and review based on current activations. We would like to request a feature to be able to export these activations into CSV file.

  10. Setting to prevent Sharegate from crawling your environments in Explorer

    It’d be nice to have a setting added in a future release that would allow for the passive operations to be disabled. That way we would only be prompted to logon to site collections for actions we deliberately initiated. Outside of the issue that we are experiencing, I can definitely think of a number of use cases where this type of setting would be desirable (e.g. compliance/organizational policy, low bandwidth, etc).

  12. Dark Edition or Option to Change the Interface to a Dark Theme

    I have been using ShareGate for over 4 years, and it is one of the only tools I use that does not offer a Dark Theme. Could you introduce the option for Color Theming.

  13. License group management

    Allow ShareGate accounts with multiple seats to have a primary and secondary administrator, who can manage those seats vs. making it accessible for all licensed users to edit existing assignments within that license group. The current setup is not optimal for enterprise situations.

  14. Shared tasks history

    The ability to see and interact with jobs that other licensed users have been working with. We have 5 admins and seeing what they’ve got going and interacting with those is an important need for us.

    - To avoid disk full on C:
    - For backup purposes
    - To use a central location for sharing
