Quest On Demand Migration Primary Use Case

CL
Deputy Lead Volunteer at West Lancashire Scouts

We have one Microsoft 365 tenancy and three not-for-profit licenses from Microsoft. Microsoft changed the licensing model, so we could only have 300 licenses per tenancy for free, so we have to pay for the other 1200 users. We were running one tenant on behalf of lots of different entities. The tenancy with 1500 people on it, is the Scout County. Within the Scout County, there are eight districts, and then within each district, there are about 20 Scout groups. That's the structure. So we had one tenancy at the county level that we provided for everybody, and we provided support as well. However, under the new licensing from Microsoft, we couldn't do that. It was going to cost us a fortune. So each district has applied for and and now has its own tenancy with its own 300 licenses, which is enough. We then use Quest Demand, to migrate from our county tenancy into eight district's tenancies.

I am working for a consultancy company, and we help customers migrate from one tenant to another. For example, in a situation, where B2B is being merged, we help a customer realize the business case technically. We help to move a few users from one tenant to another or merge tenants. Quest is ideal for that because it has one interface, and it's very easy to use.

We use it for migrating the users and data from one company's domain into another company's domain. We are merging tenants to align both companies under a single Azure environment.

We still haven't finished the migration yet.

It's a cloud solution and we connect it to our Azure environment to handle the migration.

I am a technical officer for a university. We are merging two institutions into a single tenant, so all the existing systems need to be migrated to the new tenant. We need to migrate all our Microsoft resources and applications from the other servers to the current environment. We use Quest for that.

We use the solution for M&A - Office 365 tenant mergers.

We can migrate all of our users/shared mailboxes/OneDrives/MS Teams/SharePoint Online into one dashboard! 

We can connect a source tenant in seconds, perform an initial discovery, and work out the number of licenses we need (and the volume of data that needs to be moved). This allows us to accurately plan and allocate the necessary resources to the project from the outset. 

We can rapidly provide high-level plans with confidence to key stakeholders.

Independent Consultant at Krebs IT-Services

Most use cases for Quest On Demand Migration are when a customer has an old tenant, and for some reason they have to migrate their data to a new Office 365 tenant.

I'm an independent consultant working with products from Quest, and doing projects with those products for my customers. Certain customers organize their licenses themselves, because they have their own dealer. In some cases, I also organize the license and resell products to the customer.

On Demand Migration is a cloud product, software as a service.
