Migration Challenges
Harvard Business Publishing’s Box environment held years of client collaboration, with many unique permissions set at the subfolder level. Every one of them had to be reported and mapped accurately because a single mismatch could expose client files or lock people out.
At 70 TB, the migration also had to preserve around 100,000 shared links that clients relied on, work through admin access blockers midway, and validate OneDrive and SharePoint Online domain settings before content could move.
CloudFuze’s Role
CloudFuze managed the migration from the initial feasibility review through cutover and data reconciliation. A dedicated server instance kept performance steady at this scale and a dedicated project manager hand-held the IT team at every stage. The full story of how our team mapped unique permissions, processed shared links, and resolved access blockers to keep the project moving is covered in this case study.
Migration Results
By partnering with CloudFuze, Harvard Business Publishing successfully migrated 1,000+ users and 70 TB of data from Box to Microsoft 365 with permissions, file versions, shared links, and file paths intact while teams kept working in Box until cutover. Read the case study for full details.
