Types of Migration Issues
Plan to Migrate to SharePoint Online
From the Report You Can
Classify the Sites
• What issues will be fixed by IT
• What issues will need to involve site owners
• A list of site owners and their site URLs
• What migration approach should be used (next slide)
• Whether the sites are team/project focused or highly customized
• What sites are old versus actively used
Types of Migrations
Rethink
• Abandon on-
premises site
• Self-migrate or no
migration
• Move Site
Content as-is
• Ideal for moving
basic sites
• Doesn’t allow you
to take
advantage of
new features
• Move only
selected content
• Great for
enabling hybrid
scenarios
• Leave sites with
complex issues
on-premises
• New information
architecture
• Re-architect to
take advantage
of new
capabilities
• Suggested
approach for sites
with
customizations
