How to migrate from other platforms to SharePoint on premises?

Question

Hello,

I have a client that uses NewGen OmniDocs as their current DMS. They have terabytes of data with many metadata. Now, they want to transfer to SharePoint On-premises. How can I migrate their data to SharePoint On-Premises smoothly? Are there any tools that I can use? Any article I can follow?

Hi @Aditya Biswas ,

Thank you for posting in this community.

Data Migration Options:

• Manual Migration: Manually copy files and metadata from NewGen OmniDocs to SharePoint libraries. This approach is suitable for smaller datasets.
• Third-Party Migration Tools: Consider using third-party tools designed for data migration. It's a choice you need to make for yourself and I can't make recommendations for you.

Thank you for your understanding and support! Before migrating, it is recommended that you have the people in your organization review the content that they're planning to migrate to SharePoint and OneDrive. There may be old content that isn't needed anymore and can be deleted or archived. This can help you save migration time and storage space in Microsoft 365.
