Our 5 Step Process

Our simple 5 step process is clear and transparent from start to finish

  1. 1

    Assessment and Workshop

    1-2 Working Days

    We begin by conducting a comprehensive review of your existing files and data. This thorough evaluation is essential to gain a clear understanding of the complete scope and volume of data that needs to be migrated to Microsoft 365. This initial step sets the foundation for a successful migration.

  2. 2

    Prepare Your Data and Organise

    3-5 Weeks

    When focusing on the organisation of your data, take the time to meticulously arrange and categorise your files. Pay close attention to what access permissions are currently set and how this will transition. A well-organised structure is key to ensuring a seamless transition and efficient data management within Microsoft 365.

  3. 3

    Start the Migration Process

    1-2 Weeks

    It's time to set the wheels in motion. Begin the migration process by moving specific departments or designated sections while keeping other areas intact on your current system. This selective approach ensures a smoother transition for those initial sections, allowing you to learn from and refine the process as you go.

  4. 4

    Verify and Test

    1-2 Weeks

    Once the migration is completed, start on a thorough verification process. Confirm that all your files and data have been successfully and accurately transferred to Microsoft 365. Rigorously test accessibility and functionality to guarantee that everything functions as expected.

  5. 5

    Training at Different Levels

    2-3 Working Days

    To maximise the benefits of Microsoft 365, consider implementing training at various organisational levels. This includes providing end users and IT admins with the knowledge and skills required to manage the environment. Additionally, explore the 'Train the Trainer' approach, empowering a designated in-house expert to guide both end users and IT administrators.

Frequently asked questions

Migrating your business data to SharePoint involves moving your files and other user account data across to the Microsoft 365 system. With SharePoint, you’ll be able to host files on dedicated intranet sites and update automated workflows with the latest information.
Wondering why you should migrate to SharePoint? Microsoft SharePoint and SharePoint Online offer simple collaboration for your business, no matter where your colleagues are located. Integrate SharePoint and OneDrive with your business information to allow seamless collaboration and file sharing. Utilising the power and functionality of the entire Microsoft suite means you can instantly integrate elements such as customer data, CRM function, real time updates, productivity levels, internal communication and vital alerts into one SharePoint web application. Cut down on costs and minimise the amount of third party applications your business relies on.
Any migration project involves a lot of moving parts. Preparing the source tenant, encrypting files, managing user accounts, sorting authentication and preparing the destination tenant are just some of the steps involved, and that’s before even migrating files! One of the benefits of employing the services of a Microsoft specialist like Valto is the stress-free factor. Your SharePoint developer will take care of every element of the migration project, including any unforeseen issues or fiddly steps that get complicated. We can also properly integrate your SharePoint system with other Microsoft applications for a complete all in one solution for business data.
If there was a simple answer, we’d give it. There are countless factors and variables that can affect how long a SharePoint migration takes – or indeed how long a migration to Microsoft 365 or any other platform takes. Things like internet speed, file size, file type and data amount can all make a difference. The speed of migration can even be affected by the time of day the process begins – sometimes altering the process completion time by days! When you get in touch with Valto for an initial chat about your project, we can discuss the best method and timescale for your migration. We can also streamline the process and get it done as quickly and efficiently as possible for you, cutting out any unnecessary steps or errors.
The steps to prepare for a SharePoint migration will differ depending on your organisation type, the amount of data you’re migrating and the destination and origin tenants. Some typical steps that are common for migration projects include backing up your data, cleaning up any unnecessary or outdated files, organising user accounts and mapping out a full migration plan. Your Valto migration specialist will help organise a full preparation plan so your SharePoint migration goes smoothly.
A SharePoint Migration Tool (also known as SPMT) helps streamline the process of migrating to SharePoint. Learn more about the SharePoint Migration Tool, or ask our team for more information on how it could help you.
