Migrate Exchange Mailbox to Microsoft 365

So, you’re ready to move your on-premise Exchange Mailbox to a Microsoft 365 tenant. Of course you want to do it right, and you don’t want to leave anything behind. And it would be perfectly fine if users never even know it’s happening. MigrationWiz makes it easy. Our new series of how-to videos will have you migrating like a pro.

The newest video in our series covers everything you need for a successful mailbox migration. In about twenty-five minutes you’ll learn step-by-step how to move mailboxes from an Exchange server to Microsoft 365, using real mailboxes and a real-world scenario.

What you’ll learn in this video

Our migration expert takes you step-by-step through a mailbox migration and highlights tips that will make your project run smoothly. Topics include:

Setting up for success: You’ll see how to prepare both the source and destination. This includes creating service accounts; getting mailbox access; dealing with Modern Authentication and Multifactor Authentication (MFA); and setting up permissions.

Accessing documentation: Where to find key information in Help Desk articles including commands you can plug right into settings on MigrationWiz.

Using PowerShell: Learn where to find and enter commands into PowerShell and how to assess error notifications that may pop up.

Customizing the migration: Depending on the size, scope, and timing of your mailbox migration, you may choose to do a test, pre-stage older mailbox items, or change your mailbox naming convention. MigrationWiz provides lots of options for customization.

MigrationWiz does the work for you: MigrationWiz includes automation features that will make your job easier. Autodiscover finds mailboxes on the server, and DeploymentPro allows you to automate Outlook configuration once the migration is complete. You’ll also see how to assure a fast migration by disabling throttling parameters.

These new video tutorials are great companion pieces to the Help Desk articles that detail the many migration scenarios you can execute with MigrationWiz. Use them as a refresher or a training module and your next migration will be seamless – and practically invisible to users.
