SharePoint Migration
Providing SharePoint consulting and development services since 2007, ScienceSoft takes up SharePoint migration to give your solutions a new life in order to support a favorable working climate in your organization. With a deep technical knowledge of SharePoint on-premises and in the cloud, our team handles migration to the platform’s latest versions (SharePoint 2013 and 2016), as well as helps organizations change their SharePoint deployment model and adopt SharePoint Online or Office 365.
Step-by-Step Advance towards an Improved SharePoint Ecosystem
As experienced SharePoint consultants, we understand that migration goes far beyond a mere transfer of features and content. We consider migration as a new opportunity for organizations to improve their SharePoint implementation substantially, thus foster their business processes, employees’ productivity, and overall performance.
ScienceSoft covers migration needs of organizations whether they run SharePoint on-premises or use hybrid solutions. We ensure:
Migration to SharePoint’s latest versions (2013 or 2016). We help companies owning on-premises SharePoint deployments to step up their development capacity, extend the stack of available features, as well as get user-centric and mobile-friendly SharePoint solutions.
Migration to SharePoint Online or Office 365. We assist organizations in moving their SharePoint solutions to the cloud along with preserving the functional capabilities of on-premises and bringing cloud-only advantages.
Hybrid migration. We carry out migration to a hybrid SharePoint environment to let companies take advantage of both the on-premises and the cloud while upholding scalability and expanding collaboration opportunities. We also migrate hybrid SharePoint solutions to the cloud environment.
Migration from third-party solutions to SharePoint. We also ensure painless migration from third-party solutions to SharePoint on-premises or SharePoint Online to let organizations create a centralized collaboration-oriented working environment.
Reporting
- Assessment of the existing environment to explore SharePoint’s architecture, audit SharePoint farms and define the migration model.
- Analysis of current SharePoint solutions, including site collections and sites in terms of their structure and purposes, permission management model, complexity of customization and more.
- Inspection of the content across each particular solution, in order to define critical content that is a number-one priority while migrating, or the one that is bulky, outdated or unpopular.
- Outlining a detailed migration plan with precise migration activities and their sequence.
- Migration in line with the plan. As a part of this stage, we also reset workflows, reorganize content, restructure sites and site collections, fix or recode customizations, provide custom branding and more.
- Testing of the new environment to control functional equivalency, reveal possible performance and security issues.
- Consulting assistance for SharePoint administrators to outline management requirements relevant to a new deployment, and training sessions for end-users.
- Post-migration support to assist organizations in fixing technical questions and overcome user adoption pitfalls.
