A Tenant-to-Tenant Migration is the process of transferring everything from one Microsoft 365 tenant (your organisation’s dedicated cloud environment) to another. This includes emails, files, Teams chats, SharePoint sites, and user accounts.
Our team of migration experts help you navigate the entire tenant-to-tenant migration process with confidence. From initial assessment and planning to the final switchover, we manage every detail to ensure a smooth transition. Using advanced migration tools and a wealth of hands-on experience, we safeguard your data, minimise downtime, and keep your business running seamlessly throughout the move.
Whether it’s out of necessity or to improve performance and reduce costs, businesses often turn to tenant-to-tenant migration to stay agile and efficient. Here are some of the most common reasons businesses come to us for help:
Consolidate Microsoft 365 tenants quickly and securely when two or more businesses come together.
Separate users, data, and services cleanly during the sale or spin-off of a business units.
Migrate to a new tenant to take advantage of cost savings and more favourable pricing plans.
Reorganise your Microsoft 365 environment to reflect a change in brand, naming, or legal structure.
Align departments or subsidiaries under a centralised or decentralised tenant structure.
Merge regional tenants into a single global environment to streamline management and compliance.
Here’s a quick look at what usually gets moved over during a Microsoft 365 tenant-to-tenant migration.
We migrate all your email content, including messages, calendars, contacts, and tasks. Any archived mail stored in In-Place Archives is also transferred. Where possible, we preserve your existing mailbox rules so your email functions just as it did before the migration.
All files, folders, and version histories from OneDrive for Business are securely moved to your new tenant. We maintain file permissions wherever possible and help you re-establish any external sharing links to keep collaboration seamless.
From site collections to document libraries, we transfer all SharePoint content, including pages, lists, and metadata. Permissions and group memberships are migrated, and we ensure any custom settings are properly restored in the new tenant.
We move your Teams structures, members, channels, and stored files so collaboration can continue without interruption. Standard channels are handled with ease, and we have proven methods for migrating private channels, chat history, and reconfiguring apps, tabs, and connectors.
We also assist in transferring Planner boards, Power Automate flows, Power BI workspaces, Forms, Yammer communities, Bookings data, and Stream videos. Where automated migration isn’t possible, we guide you through export and recreation to keep everything in sync.
We recreate your Azure Active Directory accounts in the new tenant, assign licences, and configure your security settings — including multi-factor authentication, conditional access policies, and group memberships — so your team can log in and get working straight away.
