Moving files en-masse to Sharepoint

@Danp said in Moving files en-masse to Sharepoint:
@BBigford This is on O365. The version is 2016 (16.0.0.1203).
Ah, yeah ours is not hosted. A few things...
*We had issues where the path exceeded 255 characters, have you addressed that?
*The user did not have the proper permissions on SharePoint, or permissions on the file(s) being uploaded. Have you checked that you can copy files to the upload location, as well as at least read permissions on the file(s)?
*There is a limit on amount of files to be uploaded. I think it is something like 5000, are you exceeding 5000?
*There is sometimes a file size limitation, have you already checked out this link? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/925083
That's about all I have for now as I'm not a SharePoint expert...

@BBigford I don't believe that our issue was due to any of the restrictions / limitations you listed. When copying a group of files, occasionally one of them would get corrupted and have zero bytes. There were no errors or warnings.
I was using Explorer to move files between the network drive and SP document library. All of the files were moved, but one of them was empty and had to be restored from backup.

Anyone ever try the products from Metalogix? If downloaded Essentials for Drives: File Shares to OneDrive Freemium, but I never received the activation code via email.
