Don’t Move Your Mailbox Data TWICE!!!

Posted by Karl Sand, Director of Channel Alliances



The blog post I wrote a couple of weeks ago, about the lack of a ratings system for specialized software tools on the market, included a specific Latin phrase, “Caveat Emptor”, or “Let the buyer beware”. Well, since I wrote that blog, I have been reminded of just how relevant that saying is in the IT industry.

Over the past three weeks, I have interviewed a handful of different companies that have gone through a cross-forest email migration project in the past couple of years.  And believe it or not, they had to move their mailbox data twice. 

Yep, you read that right; they were forced to migrate huge amounts of mail and calendar data TWICE.

Introduction to Hosted Migrations and Weekend Express Services
Posted by Richard Dean, Senior Consultant

It is now 2011 and, in only one year,
Binary Tree has successfully migrated 15 companies and approximately 50,000 seats globally to BPOS Standard. That’s over 25 Terabytes of migrated content …and we are just getting started. In 2011, we’ll be expanding our services and adding new capabilities. Also, we’re well into perfecting our migration processes for Microsoft Office 365 Cloud Services. As Microsoft's preferred vendor for migration solutions, we’re closely integrated and can provide our customers unparalleled services and options.

What is a Hosted Migration?  A hosted migration is a remotely hosted Migration-as-a-Service (MaaS), which means you don’t need special migration software, hardware, or expertise. Quite literally, we can take you from a Lotus Notes and Domino environment to an Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Online environment without any special migration hardware, software, or expertise. In summary, this is a larger phased migration project spanning weeks.

What is Weekend Express? A Weekend Express migration is a remotely hosted Migration-as-a-Service (MaaS), which means you don’t need special migration software, hardware, or expertise. Quite literally, we can take you from operating Lotus Notes and Domino on Friday to being on Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Online on Monday morning. From on-premises to Software as a Service (SaaS) in one weekend! In summary this is a smaller, big bang migration project spanning a weekend or two.

At a high level, these are the two types of hosted migration services
Binary Tree currently offers. Now for some insight into our methodologies …let’s dig in and cover the basics.

Streamlined Migration to Exchange 2010
Posted by Karl Sand, Global Microsoft Relationship Manager

When it comes to deploying and customizing their technologies,
Microsoft has never wanted to grow a large services organization internally. Instead they have fostered a global business partner ecosystem that they rely on to help customers utilize the Microsoft platform to meet business needs. Many opportunities abound for smart business partners to deliver solutions and services that help customers accelerate the use of Microsoft technologies. Transitioning customers to the latest version of Microsoft Exchange is just such an opportunity where Binary Tree has focused in the past seven years.
