Build a Successful Migration Plan
Engaging our services as early as possible is vital for accurately assessing the complexity of any migration. This assessment involves evaluating the number of applications, users, customizations, and products that your organization needs to migrate.
While no migration is straightforward, it can become even more challenging if your business faces specific circumstances, such as:
Needing to migrate more than 750 accounts.
Having to migrate more than six applications or dealing with numerous customizations.
Migrating Jira Service Management or Bitbucket.
Requiring site consolidation.
For example, let’s take a closer look at user account management. This is a critical concern that you must handle with great care to avoid any friction in your operations.
To simplify user access and enhance the overall experience, Jira Cloud offers native single sign-on (SSO) integration with various identity providers, including Azure Active Directory, Google's Cloud Identity, Okta, and OneLogin.
However, it is ultimately your responsibility to determine which authentication methods and providers will be available once your user accounts are migrated to the cloud. To prevent any future issues related to user permissions, it is essential to prepare for account migration well in advance.
By understanding these complexities, we can tailor our approach to meet your unique requirements. Our team will work closely with you to identify potential challenges and develop solutions that streamline the migration process.
This proactive approach not only minimizes risks but also enhances the overall efficiency of the migration.
In addition to migration planning, we also focus on post-migration support: Once your organization has successfully transitioned to Atlassian Cloud, we will continue to provide assistance to ensure that you are getting the most out of your new tools.
This ongoing support includes regular check-ins, performance assessments, and updates on new features or best practices.
Ultimately, partnering with us means you are not just migrating to a new platform; you are investing in a long-term relationship that prioritizes your business's growth and success.
