21 What if I already have SharePoint on premise and want to migrate to the cloud?

22 Things to consider before migration Content cleanup Do we have customizations deployed These will need to be identified and a remediation plan will need to be developed Information Architecture Permissions/Access How are we going to migrate the content

23 What are my migration options? Manual Custom Code 3 rd Party tools Hybrid

24 When is Office 365 right for me? Organizations with limited IT resources and budgets If your organization want to reduce risk by pushing some of there IT infrastructure into the cloud The need for an collaboration portal with geographically distributed employees or external users
