Sharepoint Supported Upgrade Paths
Hey Erica McKinley great to meet you!
You have a few supported options:
Onprem 2013 to onprem 2016
Onprem 2013 to hybrid office 365 (sharepoint online)
Onprem 2013 to office 365 (sharepoint online)
Tell us a bit more about the customizations in sharepoint 2013 that you MUST keep. There may be some refactoring that needs to take place. Other considerations:
-Workflows
-3rd party tools
-Integrations with LOB systems
-custom admin-approved infopath forms
-custom master pages, page layouts,
-full-trust solutions
When you're ready to discuss tools to help with your migration, you'll hear about the new SharePoint Migration (SPM) announced at Ignite 2017, Metalogix, AvePoint, ShareGate, and numerous other players. Suggest you consult a trusted advisor for their opinions, then contact vendors for demos.
As for Sp2019, I don't expect we'll here too much about that until next Ignite. Guessing that May event in Las Vegas we'll hear more about what was promised at Ignite that the product team has delivered, what stuff is in development that was announced, and a handful of new features or enhancements to existing features. Unlikely we'll hear any huge announcements on sharepoint 2019 for at least a year. Everyone is likely too busy delivering what was already promised. Some great innovations are in the works, but unlikely to announce migration methods supported by May 2018.
My guess is with 2019 there will be no suprises...2013 - 2019 and 2016 to 2019 probably both supported.
