Hi There
Just thought to seek some guidance on choosing between In-Place (IE, SP 2007 to SP 2010 to SP 2013) and Tool-base migration. Which is a better option and what is the trade-off or points to consider between both methods?
Many thanks in advance! Have a great weekend ahead!
Hello Ivan, actually you need to ask yourself first what shall be migrated, only content, or sites. Also need to analyze the 2007 environment. Is it just out-of the box functionallity there, or is it some custom code.
You have many great 3rd party tools, Metalogix, Metavis, ShareGate, AvePoint. all that could do this migration process. Metalogix has a 25gb free version I think.
I have also successfully runned a in-place upgrade, but then you first have to go to 2010, and then to 2013. But if you know what you are doing this is also a possible way to go. Let me know if I can assist you on this matter.
