Quest On Demand Migration Pros review quotes

Feb 13, 2024
You can batch up large groups. You can tell it to move everything for 200 people, and then it just goes. Once you get things set and configured, it is pretty easy. I can hand it off to people more junior to me who are less trained on the product, and they can be successful.

It's very easy to use. What I like is that if there is an error, for each task, I can find out what actually went wrong.

The solution is really stable when it comes to mailbox migration and all of the following work very well: the mail content, the OneDrive for Business content, and migrating all Azure AD objects.

The solution supports multiple workloads. We've got Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams, and Azure under the same place. It's really easy to see the progress in each of those areas. It's very important to have everything in one place. Otherwise, we'd have to use different platforms to handle different parts of the migration.

Quest allows you to customize your migration. For example, you can opt only to migrate Microsoft Teams and the related data or you can migrate all of Office 365. You can also choose to migrate accounts and mailboxes. Sometimes, we don't want to migrate SharePoint data, or we only want to migrate specific users.

They have a demo version that you can test before you purchase it so you can see that it does what you need before you commit financially.

We can see the issues that may come up during migration. We can handle multiple workloads using this since it connects with Microsoft 365.
 

Quest On Demand Migration Cons review quotes

Keith J Matthews - PeerSpot reviewer
Feb 13, 2024
It would be more useful if I could scope the dashboard. I would like to be able to scope the users that I want to see to a much smaller list. When I am looking into a tenant with 35,000 accounts, and I am only moving 2,000 of them, I wish that the guys had been smarter about the discovery, and I could have only discovered those accounts, but there is not too much to complain about.

One of the things that can be included is automation. For the matching and the migration process, they could put in some automation. I'm only allowed about 25 users at a time. If it's a large tenant, it takes quite a while to put them in the batches. If there is enough automation into that, that'd be perfect.

One significant issue that often elicited complaints during domain migration was the need to set the primary UPN for objects once they were migrated to the target.

It's definitely the Microsoft Teams functionality that has a lot of aspects where improvements are needed. Microsoft 365 Groups are tightly connected to Teams and there are a lot of improvements needed there as well.

In terms of Microsoft Teams, the only disappointment for us has been how the chats are migrated. They just don't look exactly the same as they would if you were logging on as normal. Obviously, when it comes to the user experience, you want the look and feel of everything to be replicated identically, and chats is the only part of it that doesn't look identical. However, it's not a 'car crash.' It's a slight deviation from what people would expect.

Their support interface is not so great because you need to go through several links before you can raise the ticket. Sometimes the interface freezes up, and there is some downtime. They give us some notice. It says at the top of the interface that there will be scheduled maintenance in a given region or there is currently an outage. You can see upcoming downtime in the portal and plan accordingly.

Quest On Demand Migration needs to simplify its migration with Microsoft.
