Who this is for
CIOs, IT Directors, and Records Managers considering SharePoint → Papyrus migration.
What we cover
A real customer's 90-day migration, narrated by the customer's IT Director:
- Discovery (week 1): how the customer inventoried 2.4 TB of SharePoint content
- The “what doesn't come” decision (week 2): 75% of content stayed in SharePoint or got archived externally
- Mapping (week 3): SharePoint sites → Papyrus departments; columns → tags; permissions → roles
- Export and ingest (weeks 4-8): the bulk move
- Permission migration (weeks 9-10): SharePoint groups → Papyrus ACLs
- Workflow translation (weeks 11-12): Power Automate flows → Papyrus workflows
- Cutover (weeks 13-14): new content to Papyrus only; SharePoint becomes read-only
- Lessons learned
Transcript highlights
"The biggest mistake we almost made: trying to bring 2.4 TB. We brought 600 GB. The other 1.8 TB was nobody's loss."
"Power Automate flows that were doing simple notifications, we rebuilt in Papyrus. Power Automate flows that orchestrated between SharePoint + Dynamics + Outlook, we kept in Power Automate but pointed them at Papyrus via API."
