Question 1

What does 'phased migration' mean here?

Accepted Answer

Rather than moving everything at once, migration is staged, with assessment, execution, and testing as distinct phases, reducing the chance of a single point of failure.

Question 2

Can you migrate across dev, staging, and production?

Accepted Answer

Yes, multi environment migration is included on the Accelerate package for teams that need all three kept in sync.

Question 3

What if we need to roll back?

Accepted Answer

The Accelerate package includes a rollback plan with automated snapshots, so a bad migration takeaway isn't a dead end.

Question 4

Is security checked after migration?

Accepted Answer

A security audit post migration is included on the Accelerate package.

Question 5

What support is available during the project?

Accepted Answer

Support ranges from basic documentation on the entry package to a dedicated migration specialist with 90-day white glove support on the Accelerate package.

Question 6

What happens during Assess and plan?

Accepted Answer

We run a pre migration infrastructure assessment and verify backups, building a migration plan around your exact environment.

Question 7

What happens during Migrate in phases?

Accepted Answer

Execution is staged to protect uptime, with multi environment coverage and rollback snapshots available for higher complexity moves.

Question 8

What happens during Test, secure, and document?

Accepted Answer

Post migration testing, security auditing on larger projects, and documentation close out the project.

Question 9

What does the Grow package include?

Accepted Answer

A pre migration infrastructure assessment, data backup verification, migration execution with minimal downtime, post migration testing, DNS and domain configuration, and basic documentation.

Question 10

What does the Scale package add over Grow?

Accepted Answer

Scale adds thorough migration planning with a timeline, a zero downtime migration strategy, application compatibility testing, performance benchmarking, email migration where applicable, 30 days of post migration support, and a detailed migration report.

Question 11

What does the Accelerate package add over Scale?

Accepted Answer

Accelerate adds an enterprise migration roadmap with risk analysis, custom automation scripts for data transfer, multi environment migration across dev, staging, and production, a rollback plan with automated snapshots, load testing and performance optimization, a security audit post migration, 90 days of white glove support, and a dedicated migration specialist.

Question 12

Do you require a rollback snapshot before cutover?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We won't start a migration cutover without a tested rollback snapshot in place, even on projects where a client is confident nothing will go wrong.

Question 13

Can migration happen without measured downtime?

Accepted Answer

Migration execution targets minimal downtime, with a zero downtime strategy and load testing available on higher tiers for projects that cannot tolerate any interruption.

Question 14

Do you run a risk assessment before larger migrations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Infrastructure assessment and, on larger projects, a full enterprise risk analysis happen before migration starts.

Question 15

What happens if something goes wrong mid migration?

Accepted Answer

Rollback plans with automated snapshots protect larger migrations from irreversible mistakes, so a failed step does not become a permanent one.
