Business Challenge

  • 500 GB of intranet content expected to be moved from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint Online.
  • 1.5 TB of extranet content expected to be moved from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013
  • Hill wanted to complete both the intranet and extranet migration within a span of three months.
  • Hill wanted to recreate their existing SharePoint 2010 custom application in SharePoint 2013
  • Hill was looking for an application to maintain the details of Sites and External Clients information

How Avasoft helped?

An extensive inventory analysis of the existing environment was conducted prior to the migration

  • Critical and highly used sites were identified and migrated first based on the client confirmation.
  • All sites were migrated using AVAMIGRATRON tool without any down time and impact on the end user access.
  • To reduce the production down time, we did incremental migration and kept the new site close to real data prior to production roll out.
  • All the migration strategy was preplanned and executed as per plan to avoid issues.

Value additions to Customer

  • The custom application developed for maintaining sites and external clients helped Hill to manage the details without accessing the SharePoint application.
