Many companies are jumping on the Office 365 bandwagon as it makes a compelling value proposition to save money and provide ubiquitous access for end users regardless of where they reside. Most often heard problem? Migration.
Migration projects can bring shudders to IT teams. There are several migration applications on the market but migration is usually accomplished with tools that provide bulk migration.

The effectiveness of search, moving unidentified security exposures, duplicate documents, documents that should be deleted and opening the flood gates for non-compliance issues.
A more effective approach is to clean up your content before you migrate. We have many clients who use our technologies for migration, sometimes in tandem with a migration application.
