Tenant to Tenant migrations - User switch on client
Hi PeterRising
Thanks for your answer.
In this case, my tests coincide exactly with what you write. Found something similar and it is quite tedious. The problem is, some of the users are not well versed for such work (changes on your settings).
Many people find it difficult to create a new Outlook profile- even if good documentation is available.
And there are quite a few instructions what to do after the migration 🙂
But we find a way and maybe there’s another helpful tip
After so many years of completing tenant to tenant migrations, I'm surprised at how little the user experience has improved. These types of migrations are becoming more and more common and this will only continue. I agree that a lot of users will struggle with what we would perceive as a simple task of setting up a new email profile. IT pros will spend a lot of time helping with such tasks remotely in these situations.
I'm also amazed at that. Microsoft could really simplify tenant to tenant migration. And then make something available for the client migration. Something user-friendly 🙂
May I ask you a question. In what order have you had the best experience after login on windows (after the tenant migraiton)?
Well, when Microsoft fails to address some scenarios, ISVs usually step in, and this applies here as well. At least few vendors offer "client reconfiguration" for t2t scenarios, of course you have to buy their migration product 🙂
Although I've used various good T2T migration tools, I've yet to encounter one that had a profile configuration tool which was flawless. It's simply easier to manually reconfigure the profiles I find.
