Plan it once, move it clean: How to sequence M365 tenant-to-tenant migrations from identity to cutover
With Denis Molodtsov, Microsoft MVP
How you handle identity—and the order in which everything moves—can make or break a tenant-to-tenant migration. Without the proper planning, you're dealing with broken permissions, access gaps, and reconfiguration work nobody budgeted for. Long after cutover was supposed to be done.
In this session, Microsoft MVP Denis Molodtsov shows how he sequences tenant-to-tenant migrations and shares practical migration tips to avoid the issues that keep IT teams firefighting long after cutover.
We'll also give you a first look at our biggest launch yet: Entra ID migration in ShareGate. Move user identities between tenants. No external tools, no scripts, no switching between platforms.
On the agenda:
- Why identity has to come first and what breaks when it doesn’t
- The migration sequence that works and how to execute it
- Mailbox migration gotchas that catch IT teams off guard
- How to plan domain cutover without the ripple effects that drag projects out
