Using MigrationWiz saved time managing complex migrations where traditional methods fell short. “We were experiencing some technical issues with one of our customers where the normal Microsoft methodologies for migration would not have worked without dedicating a significant amount of time first repairing their existing environment,” stated McFarland. “The MigrationWiz solution was simple and easy to understand while providing a seamless transition for the customer.”
