Consulting: To get help on your email migration project, please go to the Consulting section of this website to make contact with Rob Walton, or one of the team. A badly run email migration project can quickly run over
budget and beyond the agreed timeline. We have collectively learned many valuable project lessons from leading numerous complex global email migration projects – these lessons can be applied to your email migration project to help ensure its success. Consulting from the emailmigrations.com team can help mitigate against the risk of your email migration project going badly wrong. We know the best approach, and the pitfalls to avoid.
Migration Planning: When migrating onto a new email platform, the actual email migration part of the project is often given lesser importance compared to other parts of the project – eg) the architecture & design of the target Exchange 2010
email platform. This is a common mistake, and focus must initially be placed on the email migration strategy part of the wider project. Once the email migration strategy has been determined, then focus can switch to other parts of the project. If your email migration project does not have a documented, and agreed, email migration strategy in place, then Rob Walton can help you develop one – get your project off to the best start possible.
