How to Migrate to Office 365

The great thing about Office 365 migration is that it lives in the cloud and is very flexible. You can migrate small runs of test data to an Office 365 trial subscription and find out what can go wrong by migrating the entire organization. You must now sign up for a trial version of Office 365.

The trial version is completely free and you can explore the product in a few minutes.

Even if everything went according to plan, the process took at least half a day and possibly much longer. With Office 365, as a business user, you can go directly to the Office 365 website, sign up for a trial version, and explore SharePoint in minutes.

Activate licenses when migrating to Office 365

The licensing and activation process varies slightly depending on whether you are using P plans or E plans. To add a license, you must add users to the plan by clicking the Users tab.

Start adding a user by selecting the New → User button on the User screen ribbon. As you go through the wizard, you will be asked to enter information such as: B. The user's first and last name and the administrator rights that will be assigned to the user. You can also assign a specific license to the user.

Migrate mailbox data (Exchange) to Office 365

One of the most visible aspects of an Office 365 deployment is the migration of email data to the Exchange Online system. To start a migration, use the Email Migration page. You can access this page by clicking the Manage link in the Exchange Online section of the Office 365 admin home page, and then clicking the Email Migration button.

To start a new migration, click on the New tab to go through the migration wizard. You can use the migration wizard to migrate your Exchange settings. If you are migrating from Exchange 2007 or later, the wizard uses automatic detection to automatically detect settings. If you are migrating from Exchange 2003 or IMAP, you must enter the settings manually.

After migration is complete, the user's email is available on the Office 365 system.
