Migrations

At IXIT we carry out migration from obsolete systems to many consolidated and modern IT systems, on premise or in the cloud like Microsoft Office 365 and Microsoft Azure

Sources and Destinations

We perform migration from and toward many different IT platforms, among them:

From Google Suite (Gmail and Google Drive) to Microsoft 365
From shared folders to SharePoint sites on premise or Online
From shared folders to Microsoft Teams
From SharePoint on-premise to SharePoint Online
From Lotus Notes toSharePoint on premise or Online
From Access to Azure SQL
From Access to SharePoint on premise or Online
From Excel to Azure SQL
From Excel to SharePoint on premise or Online

Migration Process and Development

Independently of the source and destination systems, the migration process follows the same steps to guarantee a successful development of the migration:

lotus notes sharepoint step 1

Analysis of the current structure in the source system

lotus notes sharepoint step 2

User rights analysis

lotus notes sharepoint step 4

Definition of the new structure in the destination system

lotus notes sharepoint step 3

Creation of the destination environment, applying specific permissions

lotus notes sharepoint step 5

Migration of data, documents and forms

lotus notes sharepoint step 6

Index of the migrated content so the search will include the newly migrated data (only for migration to SharePoint systems)

Migration and Optimization

A migration project is also a good opportunity to “clean” an old system. Before starting with the migration process, it can be a good idea to analyze the obsolete components, like unused fields that won’t be migrated; the data location can be reviewed to detect possible duplicates; it is also possible to review the existing workflow to check if they are still aligned with the business requirements.

So, when required by the client, the migration result is converted into a new optimized system, with the same advantages of the old Lotus Notes database and with an new design.

Example: Migration Lotus Notes > SharePoint

IBM Notes (formerly Lotus Notes) is a complete management tool, used in many companies across the globe. Nowadays, for many reasons, mostly financials and also to have a better user experience, many organizations are moving to SharePoint as an alternative option.

To minimize impact on user acceptance to the new system based on SharePoint, the migration result respects the existing rules lying under the Notes forms and the location of elements on screen.

The display of forms and documents looks like the previous one in Lotus, with an enhanced design.
