Meet Divestiture Deadlines with Confidence
Migrate users, mailboxes, files, devices, and identities before access is cut off.
Divestitures often come with tight deadlines and limited time to move users and data to a new Microsoft 365 tenant before source access is lost. Together, MigrationWiz and the PowerSyncPro-powered Directory Sync and Migration Agent solutions provide a complete migration stack for data, identities, devices, and user profiles. This coordinated approach minimizes disruption, accelerates transitions, and keeps users productive from day one.

Navigating Divestiture Migrations: Pointers for Success
Divestitures create unique IT challenges, requiring organizations to separate users, data, devices, applications, and identities from shared environments while maintaining business continuity and meeting tight deadlines. Success depends on careful planning, strong governance, and the right migration strategy. In Navigating Divestiture Migrations: Pointers for Success, we highlight key considerations, common pitfalls, and best practices to help organizations execute divestiture projects with minimal risk and disruption.
Accelerate Tenant Separation Before the Deadline
Divestitures often come with hard deadlines and little margin for error. MigrationWiz, Directory Sync, and Migration Agent help organizations quickly move users, data, and identities to a new Microsoft 365 tenant while minimizing disruption and keeping projects on schedule.
Keep Users Productive Throughout the Transition
MigrationWiz migrates mailboxes and files, Directory Sync maintains identities, and Migration Agent reconnects users to their new environment. Together, they help ensure a seamless transition with minimal downtime.
Reduce Risk with an End-to-End Divestiture Migration Stack
Moving data alone is not enough during a divestiture. MigrationWiz, Directory Sync, and Migration Agent provide a complete solution for migrating users, identities, data, and devices while reducing risk and administrative effort.

FAQs for Divestitures using MigrationWiz
How can we ensure users don't lose access to email and files during a divestiture?
The best approach is to establish coexistence before migration begins. By synchronizing identities between the source and destination environments with Directory Sync, users can be provisioned and validated before their mailboxes and files are migrated with MigrationWiz. This phased approach minimizes downtime and helps ensure users maintain access to business-critical resources throughout the transition.
Do we need to migrate all users at the same time?
No. Most successful divestitures are completed in phases rather than through a single cutover event. Directory Sync allows organizations to maintain synchronized identities between environments while MigrationWiz migrates workloads in manageable waves. This gives IT teams greater flexibility and reduces the risk associated with large-scale migration events.
What happens to users' workstations after their mailbox and data have been migrated?
Once identities and workloads are in place, Migration Agent powered by PowerSyncPro can transition workstations to the destination environment while preserving user profiles, settings, application configurations, and local data. This allows users to continue working without requiring device rebuilds or extensive hands-on support from IT.
How can we meet aggressive TSA deadlines without disrupting the business?
Automation is critical for meeting divestiture timelines. MigrationWiz automates mailbox, file, and collaboration workload migrations, while Directory Sync and Migration Agent automate identity synchronization and workstation transitions. Together, these tools help IT teams execute migrations faster, reduce manual effort, and maintain business continuity throughout the separation process.
What is the biggest mistake organizations make during a divestiture migration?
Many organizations focus exclusively on moving data and underestimate the importance of identities and devices. Users need all three components—identity, data, and workstation access—to remain productive. A successful divestiture strategy aligns identities with Directory Sync, migrates workloads with MigrationWiz, and transitions workstations with Migration Agent to create a seamless experience for end users.
