SharePoint
Migration
Move from on-premise SharePoint Server to SharePoint Online — migrating sites, document libraries, lists, pages, and permissions with complete structural fidelity.
What this migration involves
SharePoint migrations are structurally complex. SharePoint Online has architectural differences from SharePoint Server that require careful planning and mapping before migration begins.
CloudyNex assesses your SharePoint Server environment in detail — cataloguing sites, subsites, content types, custom solutions, and workflows — then builds a migration plan that preserves what matters. Still on SharePoint 2016 or 2019? Both reached end of support on 14 July 2026, with no extended security update option.
- SharePoint sites and subsites
- Document libraries and lists with content

- SharePoint pages and web parts
- Content types and managed metadata

The migration path
A clear, structured path from source to destination — with CloudyNex managing every step.
What makes this migration complex
On-premise SharePoint often has custom-built workflows and solutions that do not exist in SharePoint Online. These must be catalogued and either rebuilt or replaced during migration.
SharePoint permission inheritance is complex. Unique permissions at item, library, and site level must be carefully mapped to avoid access gaps post-migration.
Very large site collections with millions of items require staged migration approaches and careful management of API throttling limits.
