Choosing the Right Tools for Your SharePoint 2013 Migration

Whenever you need to move content to or within SharePoint, you need to decide which tools are right for the task. The choice of the tools is determined by your migration strategy. For most organizations, it is down to two options (or a combination of the two): You either rely on the tools supplied by Microsoft or invest in a third-party solution, such as Migration Suite for SharePoint, to help you get the job done. 

In this paper, we look at how Migration Suite compares to native Microsoft tools and methods in addressing key business requirements for the following projects: 

• Upgrade or migration from a previous version of SharePoint to SharePoint 2013
• Reorganization and consolidation of SharePoint content, Exchange Public Folders and Windows file shares
