Office 365 Migration

Simply create a connection between a file share and a SharePoint document library based on pre-defined templates and connect your files one-way or even two-way. Subfolders are created by default. Metadata can be mapped automatically or manually, if required. All kinds of SharePoint Document Libraries are supported including in Teams, Groups, OneDrive for Business, and others. You can migrate documents from a local file server or NAS as well as Azure File Storage, or local SharePoint.

100+ data sources can be directly connected for migration, such as SQL databases, ERP/CRM/CMS systems, and other apps. Use SQL, OData, or XPath to pre-select your data, depending on the source system. Map your data fields between source and target system automatically or manually. You can connect one-way (for migration or backup), or even two-way.

Create your connections automatically based on the source structure using PowerShell. Make use of Dynamic Columns to cleanup, transform, or translate your source data to meet the requirements of the target system using your own business logic in C#. Quickly identify possible issues with path length or file names. Make use of flexible options for data migration, including Fast Migration Mode. One tool for all requirements can provide you with all options you need.

Please use Microsoft standard tools to migrate or federate your domain users. The Layer2 Cloud Connector comes with full support for standard authentication ("Microsoft Account"), authentication via Active Directory Federation ADFS ("Organizational Account"), and also custom authentications, such as used in the educational sector. You can also translate user meta data from local to cloud using Dynamic Columns and C# based on rules or lookup lists.

Access rights in NTFS and SharePoint are very different and can't be automatically translated. Best to create SharePoint sites and libraries on department or project level and assign access rights manually or automatically via PowerShell before migration. During migration newly created documents and items inherit access rights from the parent containers of the target system.
