Quick Migration
(0-2 days but may vary)
Once the migration starts, migrations from this system tend to complete very quickly. During this time, your firm may still look at your legacy system but no data should be added or modified. Migrations taking longer than a few hours often take place during the evening or over weekends.
Firm Decision Maker
A member of your firm should serve as a dedicated point of contact who can make decisions and answer any questions your migration consultant may have. This person should be readily available and is typically the firm administrator or office manager.
Virtually No Firm Preparation
(0-4 hours but may vary)
Your firm will need to commit a minimal amount of time answering questions/coordinating with your migration consultant.
Legacy Admin Credentials
Your migration consultant will need an Administrator username and password into this application in order to extract your data.
Data Backup
Your migration consultant will need a backup of this app's data.
MSSQL Database Backup
Your migration consultant will need a database backup of this app's database.
Your IT Provider will need to either provide access to the backup or enable your migration consultant to make the backup themself. The backup will be a Microsoft SQL Server database backup in either BAK or BACPAC format.
Migration Workstation
Your migration, your IT provider will need to provision a dedicated Migration Workstation for exclusive use by your migration consultant (it cannot be shared by other staff members). It should be a robust computer with a high-speed connection to the internet and any other relevant services.
Server Access
Your IT provider will need to enable administrator access to your server for your migration consultant.
File Server Access
If documents are part of your migration, your IT provider will need to enable administrator access to your file server for your migration consultant.
Database Server Access
Your IT provider will need to enable administrator access to your database server for your migration consultant.
Senior Consultant Required
Migrations from this system should only be performed by senior migration consultants.
Moderate Consultant Preparation
(3-7 days but may vary)
Your migration consultant may need up to a week to prepare for your migration. During this period of time, your firm continues to use your old system as normal.
Starting at $2500 + Consultant Fees
Migrations from this system typically include a $2500 license fee for Universal Migrator in addition to any fees your migration consultant may charge. Depending on the system you are migrating into, this charge may be partially or fully subsidized for you.
