Slack to M Teams Migration for RE Software Consultants

07 APR 2020

The Client

The client is a leading provider of Real Estate technology consulting and support services in New York and San Francisco with profound expertise around the leading RE software solutions. They have a proven track record of assisting hundreds of clients across the real estate industry in selecting, implementing, and customizing the right real estate software.

The Need

The Client had been leveraging Slack as their Digital Workplace solution and soon realized that Slack was not being completely integrated with their content and collaboration platform and was operating in silos. They also discovered that compared to Microsoft Teams, the license cost was way too high for the benefits and features they received from their existing chat & collaboration tool thus, the client decided for a Slack to Teams migration.

The Challenge

The channels migration and the data migration from Slack to Teams was challenging as the Microsoft Teams consultants had to ensure that there could be little to no content loss during the migration and the Slack conversation history remained as It is. The migration turned out to be more challenging as there was no direct integration with the client’s content and collaboration platform.

The Solution

With 10 years of experience in Microsoft Office 365 consulting services and supporting several businesses across a wide range of industries in Microsoft Teams migrations as well as Skype for Business to Teams transitions, the experienced team of Microsoft Office 365 consultants at Star Knowledge mapped out a clear plan to help the client migrate from Slack to Teams.

Here’s how our Microsoft Teams consultants performed the Slack to Microsoft Teams Migration:

• Converted all the Slack conversations into HTML files
• All the converted files were uploaded into document library
• The data was migrated to Microsoft SharePoint which allows users to access via Microsoft Teams anytime

The Benefits of Slack to Teams Migration

• Higher cost savings
• High security as files and data live in Office 365 with no third-party access to the data
• No loss of data
• Document versioning and co-authoring support
• High quality video conferencing
