We are working on implementing cloud management in an environment with a significant number of GPOs and GPO settings. GPO Analytics is helpful and has migrated about 75% of the required policy settings, but it leaves A LOT to be desired. We are not finding good documentation or guides for the settings that don't migrate in a "next, next, next, finish!" fashion.
What's the best path to getting expert, in-depth, experienced guidance and tips for dealing with policies that don't easily migrate?

Hi Chad,
I’m curious what you are exactly looking for and maybe somebody from the community can share his/ her experience on it.
We have used Group Policy Analytics only for checking if Intune had all the settings from our Windows, M365 and Edge baseline (this was already a few years ago). We made an overview what GP Analytics showed as not available and checked Settings Catalog if the settings which were shown as not available, if these could be managed with SC. We found out that we could build our security baselines with Intune, even completely in Setting Catalog.
For all the other settings, we only moved the settings from which we knew it could cause issues for our end users if we didn’t manage these. For all the others, we used this move to the cloud as a cleanup for our GPO settings.
For example the firewall rules, we started completely greenfield in Intune. And guess what, we only have a handful left. It turned most of the settings were not needed anymore.
