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.
What this actually is
This is a sequencing and cutover question, answered with a wave plan and a tested rollback runbook.
The fixed-price answer
One diagnostic resolves it
A fixed-scope diagnostic with one canonical price, so you see the number and the deliverable before the first call. Compact scopes available for smaller single-tenant environments.
The diagnostic
Migration & Cutover Plan
A sequenced wave plan, a cutover and rollback runbook, and a fixed migration quote credited toward the move.

Endpoint & Workspace Control Baseline
A 3-year total-cost model and Windows 10 ESU exposure in dollars, with a costed device and identity migration plan.
