    you don't need SP Server on-premises, but you will need some 3rd party tools to migrate some of the content. Depending on what the Notes apps do, you will need to rebuild/replace them with some different technologies

      Thanks for your response Dean.

      I will let you know if i get more info regarding the notes application that we are using.

      Can you please suggest some 3rd party tools for this migration?

      Regards,

        I know that Quest has a tool, but I've never used it so I have no idea how well it works.

         

        This may be a good opportunity to reimagine the applications by reviewing the business processes to see what is going to be needed in the future. It is quite possible that the old apps are no longer what the business users really need.
