Discover, then a pilot
Mailbox list, aliases, devices, the largest accounts. A named pilot — administrators and a director mailbox — before anyone else moves. We measure how fast copy actually runs, not how fast a slide said it would.
Cutover
Leave the current mailbox without losing a meeting.
We migrate live mailboxes from whatever you run today. Archives, loose PST files and public folders stay out unless you list them.
What staff feel
Mail keeps arriving. The diary still has Thursday in it.
We copy live mailboxes from whatever you run today — another on-site system, or cloud mail. For a stretch, mail can land in both places, so nothing is lost between copy and cutover. Then incoming mail points at the new system, the old one goes read-only, and people open the same Outlook they opened on Monday.
Archives, loose PST files and public folders stay out unless you list them. That is how a job finishes in a season instead of becoming a second project nobody scoped.
How people move
A named pilot first. Then waves. Then incoming mail points here.
Waves, then cutover
Dual-delivery so nothing is lost. Then we point incoming mail at the new system, watch the queues, and leave the old one read-only until you accept.
Rollback is a path
If operational acceptance fails, mail returns to the source. Copies on the new system stay until you sign destruction. Rollback is a written path, not a slogan.
Questions we hear
Will people lose mail over the weekend of cutover?
Dual-delivery covers the gap between copy and cutover. Incoming mail then points at the new system. We watch the queues.
Do you move every old archive?
Not unless you list archives, PST files or public folders. Live mailboxes are the default.
What if the new system is not accepted?
Mail returns to the source. Copies on the new side stay until you sign destruction.
Tell us where the mail should live.
Your servers, the cloud, or both. We install, move people across, and stay on the night phone.
