Below are a few excerpts from the article, "7 Microsoft 365 Migration Tips to Ensure a Smooth Migration."
Commit to a Thorough Discovery Process
"Nothing will affect the success of your Microsoft 365 migration project quite as much as the quality of the initial discovery process. A robust discovery starts with identifying the data in the existing environment, including the amount and types of data to transfer. Look carefully at mailboxes, team structures and document libraries."
Map Out the Destination Environment
"To ensure a smooth migration process, take time to prepare the new environment before transferring any data. Meet with key stakeholders and team leaders to ensure the new structure supports business processes. For Microsoft Teams migration, map out how the teams will operate and resolve any duplicate team names ahead of time."
Clean Before Moving
"Migration presents the perfect time to clean up bloated email inboxes and document libraries, keeping regulatory compliance in mind. Delete or archive inactive mailboxes and teams that no longer serve a purpose. Likewise, look for duplicate or outdated documents. Reducing unnecessary data will help streamline the migration process, saving time and money."
Perform a Test Run
"Conduct a pilot project an on average size team to iron out any kinks in the migration plan. A carefully monitored test run allows the migration team to identify and address issues that may arise. For instance, the pilot process may highlight the need for additional team members or more training."
