Migrate your estate without the drama.
A migration is the upgrade or replacement of an operating system, hardware or software across your end user estate. On the surface it looks simple. In reality it reaches every member of staff and every technical dependency you have.
Why migrations are hard
It is easy to think a migration is just swapping one PC for a newer one, five thousand times over. The reality is a highly complex project that directly and personally affects every member of staff, and often your suppliers and customers too. It has to work around the busyness of the day job, and around every other project and partner that touches your IT.
One approach, three shapes.
Choose the migration that fits where you are.
OS Refresh
Migrate to a new operating system, de-risked by confirming applications work on the new target OS and deploying to early adopters first.
Delivers: 97% of devices migrated, applications tested to the agreed level.
PC Replace
Migrate to new devices, de-risked by testing the build on the new models and deploying to early adopters first.
Delivers: 97% of devices migrated, applications tested to the agreed level.
Evergreen
Keep devices refreshed in line with warranty, so the estate never ages out of support.
Delivers: 97% of devices kept in warranty.
Scoped clearly, up front.
What is in, what is out and what you get, agreed before anything starts.
- Migrate to a new OS or new devices, and keep the estate evergreen, de-risked with application testing and early-adopter rings.
- An endpoint management tool such as Microsoft Intune
- A new OS image ready to deploy
- Standard devices across the estate
- Servers, mobile and kiosk devices
- Physical handling of stock and devices
- End-user support and remediation
- 97% of devices migrated or kept in warranty
- Applications tested to the agreed level
- A repeatable process moved into business as usual
The method, built into the tool.
- Discovers and reconciles every device, its applications and its warranty automatically.
- Builds early-adopter and pilot rings so issues surface on a few devices, not thousands.
- Routes application testing and confirmations to owners through workflow.
- Rolls out in scheduled waves and tracks progress against the target in live dashboards.
