MICROSOFT 365 MIGRATION

Microsoft 365 Migration Services in Dubai & UAE

Move your business email, files, collaboration data and Microsoft workloads to Microsoft 365 with a structured migration plan designed around your users and business operations. CODE3 helps businesses in Dubai and across the UAE assess their existing environment, prepare Microsoft 365, migrate workloads, validate data and support users through the transition.

SERVICES OVERVIEW

Move to Microsoft 365 Without Losing Control of Your Data

A Microsoft 365 migration is more than moving mailboxes and files. Your users, identities, permissions, domains, applications, collaboration data and existing workflows all need to be considered. CODE3 plans and manages Microsoft 365 migrations for businesses in Dubai and across the UAE, based on your current environment, business requirements and target Microsoft 365 architecture.

WHAT WE COVER

What Our Microsoft 365 Migration Services Cover

Not every migration follows the same path — CODE3 helps determine the appropriate approach before data is moved.

Exchange Online Migration

Migrate business email, mailboxes and related Exchange data to Exchange Online with proper planning for domains, mail flow, user accounts and cutover activities.

SharePoint Migration

Move SharePoint sites, libraries and business content into SharePoint in Microsoft 365 while planning information architecture, permissions and user access.

Explore Microsoft SharePoint
OneDrive Migration

Migrate users' business files into OneDrive while preparing user accounts, storage and synchronization for the new Microsoft 365 environment.

File Server to Microsoft 365 Migration

Move suitable business files from local servers and network file shares to SharePoint and OneDrive.

Google Workspace to Microsoft 365

Plan migration from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365, including supported mail and file workloads and the transition of users to Microsoft's collaboration platform.

Microsoft 365 Tenant-to-Tenant Migration

Support migrations between Microsoft 365 tenants for business restructuring, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures or organizational changes.

Hybrid Migration

Maintain selected on-premises services while progressively moving workloads to Microsoft 365.

Business Consolidation

Bring users, data and workloads together following mergers, acquisitions, restructuring or organizational changes.

Microsoft's current documentation specifically identifies tenant-to-tenant migrations, external-to-Microsoft-365 migrations and migrations from file shares and third-party platforms as distinct migration scenarios.

WHAT CAN BE MIGRATED

What Can Be Migrated to Microsoft 365?

Depending on your source environment and migration scenario, CODE3 can help plan migrations involving:

Exchange Mailboxes
Individual user mailboxes moved into Exchange Online.
Business Email
Your organization's email moved into Microsoft 365 with mail flow planned around it.
Calendars & Contacts
Meeting schedules and contact information carried over alongside mailboxes.
SharePoint Sites
Team and communication sites moved into SharePoint in Microsoft 365.
SharePoint Document Libraries
Structured document storage migrated along with its permissions.
OneDrive Files
Individual users' business files moved into their new OneDrive.
Network File Shares
Shared folders from your existing network moved to SharePoint or OneDrive.
Windows File Servers
Server-based file storage assessed and migrated to Microsoft 365.
Microsoft Teams Content
Team-based collaboration content carried into the new environment.
Microsoft 365 Groups
Group membership and associated resources migrated together.
Documents & Folders
Business documents and their folder structures moved as a unit.
Google Workspace Data
Supported mail and file content migrated from Google Workspace.
Box & Dropbox Content
Files from third-party cloud storage platforms migrated where supported.
Existing Microsoft 365 Tenant Data
Workloads and data moved from one Microsoft 365 tenant to another.

The exact workloads, features and migration method depend on the source and target environments. Microsoft provides different migration paths for Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, file shares and third-party platforms.

ASSESSMENT

Microsoft 365 Migration Assessment

Before migration begins, CODE3 reviews the existing environment to identify what should be migrated, what needs preparation and what may require remediation.

Current Microsoft 365 Environment
Understanding what already exists before adding to it.
Exchange & Mailbox Configuration
Reviewing the source email environment in detail.
Domain & DNS Requirements
Confirming what needs to change for mail flow to work correctly.
File Servers & SharePoint
Understanding what content exists and where it lives today.
OneDrive Requirements
Planning individual file storage needs per user.
User Accounts & Permissions
Reviewing identities and access ahead of migration.
Data Volume & Structure
Understanding the scale and shape of what needs to move.
Unsupported or Problematic Content
Identifying content that needs special handling before it moves.
Business-Critical Workloads & Dependencies
Mapping what the business cannot afford to have disrupted.

The objective is to build a migration plan based on the actual environment rather than moving everything without understanding its structure.

PLANNING

Microsoft 365 Migration Planning

A successful migration starts before the first mailbox or file is moved.

Migration Scope

Identify users, workloads, applications and data included in the project.

Source Assessment

Understand the existing infrastructure, data locations and dependencies.

Target Architecture

Prepare the Microsoft 365 environment for the workloads being migrated.

Identity & Access

Plan users, groups, permissions, authentication and administrative access.

Migration Waves

Group users and workloads into manageable migration batches where appropriate.

Cutover Planning

Define the sequence and timing for DNS, mail flow, users and workloads.

Validation

Define how migrated data and services will be checked after migration.

User Transition

Prepare users for new sign-in methods, applications, storage locations and collaboration workflows.

Microsoft's migration guidance similarly recommends planning, assessing and remediating content, preparing the target environment, migrating and onboarding users.

CORE WORKLOADS

Exchange Online, SharePoint & OneDrive Migration

The three most common Microsoft 365 migration workloads, each planned around its own requirements.

Exchange Online Migration

Move your business email environment to Microsoft 365 Exchange Online with a structured migration approach. Where required, planning can also consider coexistence or phased approaches for larger environments.

Common applications:
  • Mailbox assessment & domain/DNS planning
  • Mail flow & user account preparation
  • Migration batches & cutover planning
  • Outlook configuration & email validation
SharePoint Migration

Move existing SharePoint content and sites into SharePoint in Microsoft 365 with proper planning for structure and permissions.

Common applications:
  • SharePoint Server & site assessment
  • Document library migration & content organization
  • Permission planning & site structure
  • Migration validation
Explore Microsoft SharePoint
OneDrive Migration

Move users' business files into OneDrive and prepare them for secure access across Microsoft 365.

Common applications:
  • User OneDrive preparation & file assessment
  • Folder organization & user mapping
  • OneDrive provisioning & synchronization
  • Migration validation & user onboarding
FILE SERVER & GOOGLE WORKSPACE

File Server & Google Workspace Migration

Modernizing traditional storage and third-party platforms requires more than transferring files.

File Server to Microsoft 365

Traditional file servers can become difficult to manage as organizations grow — CODE3 helps assess which content moves to SharePoint, OneDrive or Teams.

Common applications:
  • File-share assessment & data classification
  • Duplicate & obsolete content review
  • Folder structure & permission mapping
  • Destination planning & validation
Google Workspace to Microsoft 365

Moving from Google Workspace requires more than transferring documents — CODE3 helps plan the transition of supported workloads while preparing your Microsoft 365 environment.

Common applications:
  • Google Drive & Gmail migration
  • User accounts & file ownership
  • Collaboration data & folder structures
  • Microsoft 365 user setup & onboarding

Microsoft's Migration Manager supports migrations from file shares, Google Workspace and other third-party platforms into SharePoint and OneDrive.

TENANT-TO-TENANT

Microsoft 365 Tenant-to-Tenant Migration

Tenant-to-tenant migrations are commonly required when organizations restructure, merge, acquire another company or separate business operations.

Source Tenant Assessment
Understanding what exists in the tenant being migrated from.
Target Tenant Preparation
Getting the destination environment ready to receive workloads.
User & Identity Mapping
Matching accounts between the source and target tenants.
Domain Planning
Coordinating domain ownership and DNS across tenants.
Exchange, SharePoint & OneDrive Migration
Moving the core workloads between tenants.
Permission Planning & Scheduling
Coordinating access and timing across the migration.
Validation & User Transition
Confirming everything moved correctly and helping users adjust.

Microsoft currently documents tenant-to-tenant migration paths for Exchange Online, SharePoint and OneDrive, with additional orchestration capabilities for multi-workload scenarios.

IDENTITY & ACCESS

Microsoft 365 Identity & Access Preparation

Migration affects more than data. Users must be able to authenticate and access the services they need.

User Account Preparation
Getting accounts ready before workloads arrive.
Microsoft Entra ID Planning
The identity foundation the rest of the migration depends on.
Domain Configuration
Setting up domains correctly for the target environment.
Group & Permission Planning
Carrying over access structures deliberately, not by default.
Administrative Access
Scoped roles for the people managing the migration.
MFA & Conditional Access
Verification and access rules considered from the start.
Least-Privilege Administration
Using the fewest permissions necessary for migration activities.

Migration should not become an opportunity to carry unnecessary access or outdated permissions into the new environment. Microsoft recommends using appropriately scoped administrative roles for migration activities.

Microsoft 365 Migration

  • Moves existing workloads and data
  • Focuses on source-to-target transition
  • Requires source assessment
  • Includes data and user migration
  • Requires migration validation

Microsoft 365 Implementation

  • Establishes a new Microsoft 365 environment
  • Focuses on initial deployment
  • Starts with business requirements
  • Includes configuration and adoption
  • Requires deployment and configuration validation
