Comprehensive inventory for easy migration planning!

Migration in a fast-track mode
Alright! You have been using IBM Connections since the inception of your organization or for a very very long time. You have loads of communities and apps with a high volume of content. But you have a very limited time to migrate them to SharePoint. How do we go about it? We use parallel migration in different servers with multiple tool instances to speed up the migration process. Migration at Warp speed!
Retain Metadata after migration!
Migrating the metadata is critical when you migrate IBM Connections content to SharePoint. You’d not want to miss out on any details, whether it is the creator’s name, the modifier’s name, created date, modified date, rich texts, comments, internal links, attachments, or replies when they are migrated. No worries! We retain all the details, everything that was there in IBM Connections as it is.
All the versions or only the latest version for migration?
When you migrate Files and Wikis, you can either migrate all versions or migrate only the latest one depending upon your business requirements. With all versions, you can have the file history. And with only the latest version, you can save time in migration. Either way, it’s a win-win for you!
Moving the last-minute content!
Imagine you have started the migration and there is data growth in the IBM Connections platform. How’d you get that data migrated? You get those last-minute data growths migrated using incremental/ delta migration. Simple, right?
Secure migration to GCC tenants
If you have a requirement to migrate to GCC tenants, AVAMIGRATRON can make the migration possible seamlessly without any issues. We can also migrate the content of IBM Connections to GCC High tenants without any security concerns while keeping confidentiality intact.
Increase user adoption with ‘like-to-like’ migration!
Some of your employees might still be comfortable working on the legacy platform, like IBM Connections. We understand their compatibility and hence we use custom web parts to get you the same look and feel as IBM Connections in SharePoint. You will not miss the IBM Connections look and feel while working in SharePoint and thus it’d increase User adoption.
Complete guidance and support
Should you require any support during migration, you’d get that from the AVAMIGRATRON team. We help you analyze your IBM environment and guide you in migration planning. No hurdles and no hiccups during migration. We can also take up the entire migration and complete the process for you.
Flexible option for migrating the content
The users will have the option to migrate the Community files and Community Wikis to MS Teams or SharePoint document library based on their preferences. Based on their requirement, the users can choose a team or a communication site to migrate the content. Migration to a new site or to an existing team /communication site template is also possible using AVAMIGRATRON.
With these benefits, you should definitely try this platform for your IBM Connections migration.
Dynamic, effective, quick, and simple! That’s AVAMIGRATRON for migration!
