Case Study: SharePoint & M365 Migrations

+

Modernizing enterprise collaboration and storage through Microsoft 365

+
+
+ +
+
+
+
+

Client Overview

+

+ A mid-sized professional services firm relied on Dropbox, Egnyte, Google Workspace, and on-prem file servers to manage daily operations. The IT environment was fragmented, increasing operational complexity and impeding secure collaboration. They needed a scalable solution to unify infrastructure, reduce support load, and enhance productivity. +

+ +

Objectives

+
    +
  • Consolidate file and email services under Microsoft 365
    • +
  • Minimize business disruption during migration
    • +
  • Strengthen compliance, backup, and access control
    • +
  • Enable centralized collaboration with Microsoft Teams
    • +
+
+

Solution Strategy

+
    +
  • Provisioned a temporary VM to act as a synchronized landing zone for Egnyte and local file server data
    • +
  • Used Egnyte’s API and command-line tools to batch-export permissions and files to the sync VM
    • +
  • Ran Microsoft’s SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) with JSON-based mapping to import content into SharePoint document libraries
    • +
  • Automated pre/post migration checks and permissions auditing via PowerShell and Graph API
    • +
  • Staged migration of mail and calendar data using MigrationWiz with coexistence enabled between Google Workspace and Exchange Online
    • +
  • Provided Teams onboarding with channel templates and cross-platform training
    • +
+
+

Results

+
    +
  • 12.4 TB of content migrated across four platforms in under 90 days
    • +
  • Zero data loss or permission mismatches confirmed via script-based audits
    • +
  • Helpdesk load cut by 40% within the first month post-migration
    • +
  • Fully adopted Microsoft Teams structure with defined department-based channels and integrated file repositories
    • +
  • End-user training boosted post-migration satisfaction to 97%
