Introduction
When planning an Office 365 tenant-to-tenant migration for your company, strategizing with a multi-dimensional approach is the way to go. Meeting the factors that the target Microsoft 365 tenant demands is an industry-standard practice to follow, but how about walking the extra mile to use the migration project to meet more goals that can augment your business operations?
Office 365 Tenant to Tenant Migration Challenges
The biggest challenge associated with migrating Office 365 from one tenant to another is it needs to be a comprehensive migration. Apart from user accounts and data such as files and folders, businesses must also migrate licenses (subscriptions), groups, domains, email system, and Microsoft Teams. Therefore, companies and their IT teams must choose a lift-and-optimize approach over a straightforward lift-and-shift migration approach.

Microsoft 365 Tenant to Tenant Migration Steps

Step 1: Sign in to CloudFuze Account
The First step to migrate from one tenant to another in Office 365 is to create and log in to the CloudFuze account.
Step 2: Add Both the Microsoft 365 Accounts to CloudFuze
Locate the OneDrive/SharePoint icon under the list of business clouds and click on it. Log in using your Microsoft admin login credentials and authorize it. Repeat the same process to add the destination tenant.
Step 3: Add Apps From the Source and Destination Tenants
The first step is to add the apps that your organization plans to migrate. For example, from the list of apps to migrate, you may first choose to transfer users and data from the source OneDrive tenant to the destination OneDrive tenant.
Step 4: Configure the Source and Destination Tenant Apps
The next step is to visit the Team Migration section and configure the source and destination tenant apps (e.g., OneDrive for Business) in the correct order as per their domains. This process helps ensure that your IT team transfer users and data from the actual source tenant app to the destination tenant app and not the other way around.
Step 5: Map the User Accounts
In the Mapping section, map the user accounts to transfer the data in the correct path. Since user accounts in the source tenant app and destination tenant app do not match, auto-mapping does not work.
Therefore, it is a must to use the CSV mapping method. Our managed migration team can assist your IT team in creating CSV mapping for a high volume of user accounts.
Step 6: Map Permissions
Map permissions to the right users in the destination tenant. By default, the permissions are mapped with respect to the email addresses and can be customized based on the business requirements by clicking on the edit option.
Step 7: Configure Migration Options
Configure a few migration options as the final steps prior to starting the Office 365 tenant to tenant migration process. Choose the migration type as one-time for the first migration run and add all stakeholders of the project for migration report updates.
Step 8: Preview and Start the Migration
Reviewing all the selected parameters is critical to avoid any unnecessary add-ons. Once everything looks good, start the actual migration process.
Step 9: Microsoft 365 Tenant to Tenant Migration Status
After initiating the migration, you will be redirected to the Reports dashboard. The “In Progress” status indicates that the migration is currently under process.
The status turns “Processed” once the migration is completed successfully.
