Migrations & legacy exits
Leave the legacy platform without breaking Monday morning
You are escaping Google Workspace, a GoDaddy-federated tenant, an aging on-prem Exchange, or a platform that a major client flagged in their last security review. The risk is rarely the move itself. It is the cutover: lost mail, broken logins, and a Monday of fires.
What this looks like in real life
A regional contractor moved twenty-five years of project files off an aging on-premise server into SharePoint and OneDrive. The first attempt was done on the cheap, and it looked fine until estimators could not open files in the middle of a bid. Folders with a "#" in the name silently broke sync, the deepest project paths sat right on the Windows length limit, and a recent Windows update had quietly broken the sign-in that OneDrive, Outlook and SharePoint all rely on. Three separate failures, surfacing as one tangled mess.
What was at risk
- Live bid files that estimators could not open the week they were due.
- No reliable way to prove which files had crossed over and which were silently missing.
- A team blaming the new platform, and an owner ready to reverse the entire move.
What the engagement produced
A reconciliation script that compared the destination against the source and surfaced the exact missing files, the folder-name and path-length faults fixed at the root, and a written migration runbook handed to the team so they could run the rest themselves. The move held. Every failure that caused the panic was one a five-day readiness assessment flags before a single mailbox or file is touched.
The fixed-price answer
One diagnostic resolves it
One fixed fee, agreed before any work starts. The number moves with tenant size and how many sites or mailboxes are in scope. Compact scopes cover smaller single-tenant environments where they apply.
The diagnostic
Migration & Cutover Plan
A sequenced wave plan, a cutover and rollback runbook, and a fixed migration quote credited toward the move.

Device & Endpoint Security Baseline
Leaving a platform usually means touching every laptop as well. This prices the device and sign-in side of the move, including what keeping Windows 10 alive costs you each year.
What you walk away with
What the evidence looks like
A representative deliverable. Yours is built on your own tenant.
Senior-delivered
One senior engineer scopes it and runs it, start to finish.
Read-only access
Settings and permissions only are inspected. No files are opened and no data is moved.
Fixed scope
A defined deliverable and a definition of done, agreed before anything starts.
