Expert Tips

Make Your SharePoint Migration Smoother

Start with your tenant

Before you migrate content, make sure your M365 tenant is configured correctly—this sets the foundation for everything else.

Use the right tools

Microsoft’s Migration Manager works well for many needs, but complex moves often benefit from a tailored migration solution.

Clean before you move

Don’t bring over duplicates, outdated files, or broken permissions. A content audit saves time and improves results when you migrate content.

Don’t migrate everything at once

Scheduling migrations in phases helps reduce risk, keeps teams productive, and allows for easier testing and feedback.

Set up your sites strategically

Group related content into clear SharePoint sites to support collaboration, control access, and make information easier to manage.

Work closely with admins

Involve your SharePoint admin team early—they play a key role in permissions, governance, and helping users adjust smoothly.

SharePoint Migration FAQs

Got questions? We’ve answered some of the common ones here. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, drop us a note.

What do we need to think about before moving to SharePoint?

Planning is key to getting the most out of a SharePoint migration. You’ll want to look at what content you have, how it’s organised, who needs access, and what can be improved. It’s also a good time to rethink outdated folder structures or permissions that no longer fit. At Silicon Reef, we help you take a step back, map out what’s working (and what’s not), and set up SharePoint in a way that supports better collaboration and document management from day one.

Can we keep our existing folder structure when we migrate to SharePoint?

You can keep your current folder structure—but this is often a missed opportunity to simplify things. SharePoint gives you better ways to organise documents using document libraries, metadata, and content types, which make everything easier to find and manage. At Silicon Reef, we’ll help you assess what’s worth keeping, what needs to change, and how to create a structure that supports your teams more effectively.

How do we make sure we don’t lose data during a SharePoint migration?

It starts with a full audit of your existing content. We map out where everything lives, who needs access, and how permissions are set up. From there, we use proven tools and a tested process to move your data securely and accurately. We also run post-migration checks to make sure files, links, metadata, and permissions are all working properly—so you don’t run into surprises later on.

Will migrating to SharePoint disrupt our day-to-day work?

A well-planned migration should be low-disruption. We can move content in stages, work around your business hours, and prioritise teams that need early access. We also make sure employees are supported with training and guidance so they feel confident from the start. Our goal is to make the switch feel smooth and manageable, not overwhelming.

How long does a SharePoint migration take?

It depends on the size and complexity of your current setup. A small migration might take a few weeks, while larger, multi-site moves with content restructuring can take several months. Things like content clean-up, permissions mapping, and stakeholder training all affect the timeline. At Silicon Reef, we provide clear timelines upfront and work in phases to minimise disruption while keeping the project moving forward.

How much does a SharePoint migration cost?

The cost can vary based on the amount of content, technical complexity, and the level of support your organisation needs. If you’re migrating from file shares or a legacy system, or you need a lot of restructuring, the scope will be broader. At Silicon Reef, we tailor each project to your business goals—so you’re not paying for extras you don’t need, and you get the long-term value you’re looking for.

Is migrating to SharePoint worth the cost and effort?

For most organisations, yes—especially if your current setup is slowing people down or making collaboration harder. SharePoint makes it easier to manage documents, set permissions, find the right information, and work together across teams. When combined with Microsoft Office and other Microsoft 365 tools like Viva, Power Platform and Copilot, it becomes a powerful part of your digital workplace. We work with you to make sure the migration delivers long-term value, not just a quick fix.

What are the biggest risks during a SharePoint migration?

The biggest risks include missing metadata, broken permissions, downtime, or bringing across outdated content. These risks are avoidable with a strong migration strategy. At Silicon Reef, we perform pre-migration audits, run staged pilots, and plan around your operational needs to ensure everything moves smoothly, with minimal disruption.

Can we migrate from a non-Microsoft platform into SharePoint?

Yes, we help organisations migrate from platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, and legacy file shares into SharePoint. Using a combination of Microsoft’s Migration Manager and custom tools, we migrate content securely while preserving structure, permissions, and version history where possible. We also support user adoption post-migration to ensure a successful transition.
