Data Migration

What is a Data Migration?

Data migration is the process of transferring data from one system, storage location, or format to another. The goal of data migration is to ensure that data is accurately and securely transferred to the new environment while maintaining its integrity and accessibility. Data migrations can be needed during system upgrades, technology transitions, or the adoption of new applications. Migrations require careful planning, validation and testing to ensure a successful and smooth transition between the two systems.

Migration Roadmap

Our engineers will work with you and your team to create a plan that works for you. We perform extensive planning and verification before the migration begins.

Migration Services

Migrating services can be stressful and worrying as it is a big step to move to another service or upgrade your technology to stay up-to-date. Our engineers are fully equipped to ensure that the migration goes smoothly.

Types of Migration

There are various types of migration, whether it is from an on-premises device to the cloud, or from one device such as a NAS to another. The services and systems may differ but we will endeavour to make sure the migration is completed successfully.

Our Common Migrations

Microsoft 365

We frequently migrate clients to Microsoft 365 because they can then get access to multiple services such as OneDrive, SharePoint, and the applications such as Word. The migration has various steps depending on the services that the client uses. Some examples are:

Migrating emails from different providers such as Google, or mail servers that use POP or IMAP.
Migrating files from an on-premise server into SharePoint so that a company can be cloud-based for more flexibility and reduced costs.
Migrating personal files into OneDrive accounts so that each user can access their files from remote locations.

New Technology

As technology progresses, systems need to be upgraded to keep up with the demand of businesses. During this process, it may be necessary to migrate data onto a new machine, such as a new server, or from an old computer to a newer device. As these devices are normally at the heart of the business, it is imperative that the migration goes smoothly to ensure that the business-critical files are not affected. We take the necessary steps to ensure the data migration is completed fully. Some migrations are easier than others, naturally, so they require more planning and verification.
