Prepare your source for a snag-free migration
Inventory existing content
Our Source analysis report creates a detailed inventory of your source environment, including its size and total number of sites/site collections, and identifies SharePoint and Nintex workflows.
Estimate the effort required
Once you have a clear picture of the size and contents of your source, you can accurately estimate how complex your migration will be and decide how to carry it out with the least possible impact on business operations.
Identify and fix potential issues
Detect warnings and errors pre-migration, so you know exactly what to fix before you start. Use the Pre-check report to do a test-run and correct potential issues ahead of time so that your live migration runs as smoothly as possible.
Simplify your SharePoint migration
