Common questions about Cloud Migration.
How long does a cloud migration take?
A straightforward server lift-and-shift for a small business typically takes two to six weeks from assessment to cutover. More complex multi-site or multi-workload migrations take longer and are scoped individually.
Which cloud platforms do you support?
We primarily work with Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365. We also support AWS and Google Cloud for specific workloads, and we can manage multi-cloud environments.
Will moving to cloud actually save us money?
It depends on your current setup. Cloud often reduces hardware capital costs and can improve redundancy. We provide a total-cost-of-ownership comparison before any migration so you can make an informed decision.
What happens to our data during the migration?
Data is replicated to the cloud environment and verified before the production cutover. We never delete source data until you have confirmed the cloud environment is working correctly.
