Independent Data Migration Services Consultants

Data migration is the critical process of moving data from legacy systems to new systems, ensuring that businesses can upgrade or change their software infrastructure without losing valuable data. This process includes selecting, preparing, extracting, and transforming data, followed by testing and validation to guarantee accuracy and completeness. Given its complexity, data migration significantly impacts the success of enterprise software projects, influencing timelines, budgets, and the overall quality of the new system.

Absolutely. Many of our clients face challenges due to a lack of in-house expertise or resources to manage data migration efficiently. SMC fills this gap by offering comprehensive data migration services, including project planning, execution, and support, ensuring your migration project is handled efficiently and effectively from start to finish.

A key outcome of our Plan and Prepare phase is an updated Total Cost of Ownership which covers all key costs associated with implementation project. This includes the solution upfront and ongoing costs, any associated hosting costs, implementation partner costs to implement and to provide ongoing support, internal costs for your personnel on the project and finally any additional costs for external resources to assist you.

Common data migration errors include inadequate planning, over-reliance on manual processes, underestimating the complexity of data transformation, and failing to validate data post-migration. SMC avoids these pitfalls through thorough planning, leveraging automation tools to accelerate processes and reduce errors, and conducting extensive testing and validation to ensure data accuracy and integrity.

Automation plays a crucial role in streamlining data migration by speeding up repetitive tasks, reducing the likelihood of human error, and ensuring a consistent and repeatable process. SMC utilises state-of-the-art automation tools to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the reliability of data migration projects.
