Moving SharePoint files is only part of a cross-tenant migration.
Permissions, metadata, hub relationships, workflows, apps, and governance need a plan too.
Our latest blog looks at what IT teams should consider before cutover.

SharePoint Online is often one of the most business-critical workloads in a Microsoft 365 tenant, supporting intranets, departmental collaboration, document management, knowledge repositories, automated processes, and content shared through Microsoft Teams. During a merger, acquisition, divestiture,...

Many organizations approach cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migrations by focusing on Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and Entra ID. But what about the business logic running behind the scenes?

Power Apps, Power Automate flows, Dataverse, custom c***ectors, Azure integrations, and service accounts often become some of the biggest sources of post-migration risk. A successful cutover doesn't guarantee your automations, approvals, and critical business processes will continue working as expected.

In the latest installment of our cross-tenant migration series, we explore the hidden Power Platform dependencies that organizations must identify, plan for, and validate to avoid costly disruptions.

Cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migrations are traditionally planned around the major workloads: Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and Microsoft Entra ID. However, as organizations modernize, another architectural layer quietly becomes one of the largest sources of post-cutover risk: Microsof...

This year, Olive + Goose completed a formal carbon footprint assessment and earned the RyeStrategy Level 1 Emissions Reduction Program badge.

As a fully remote technology consulting firm, our footprint looks different than many organizations. We don't have office-related emissions to account for, but we do rely on software platforms, cloud services, and client travel to do our work. Understanding that footprint starts with measurement, not assumptions.

We didn't do this because we had all the answers. We did it because you can't improve what you haven't taken the time to understand. Establishing a clear baseline and continuing to measure our impact helps us make more informed decisions about where to focus our efforts.

Our latest blog shares what we learned, why we chose to invest in this work now, and how we're thinking about sustainability as our business continues to grow.

Cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migrations are often discussed in terms of Exchange mailboxes, OneDrive accounts, and SharePoint document libraries.

Most organizations focus on moving mailboxes, files, and Teams data during a cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migration. But the real foundation is often overlooked: Microsoft Entra ID.

In the third installment of our Tenant-to-Tenant Microsoft 365 Migration Series, we explore identity mapping, MFA transitions, Conditional Access, Cross-Tenant Access Settings, and why identity should be treated as its own migration workstream.

Read the latest blog and learn how to avoid the challenges that can derail migration day.

When planning a cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migration, it’s easy to focus entirely on the highly visible workloads. Project managers naturally ask: How long will it take to move Exchange Online mailboxes? Are the SharePoint Online document libraries mapped? Have we pre-staged OneDrive data? What ab...

Cross-tenant migration is not a copy-paste. The 2nd blog of our M365 migration series breaks down what actually moves - and what doesn’t.
Native tools move content like email and files. They don’t move identity, security, compliance, or integrations. That’s where most migrations run into issues.

Planning a migration? Olive + Goose helps you align identity, security, and operations so you’re fully ready on day one.

Many organizations entering a merger, acquisition, divestiture, or tenant consolidation assume that Microsoft’s native cross-tenant migration tools work like an “undo/redo” button for their cloud infrastructure. There is a common belief that clicking “start” will seamlessly mirror the sour...

Cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migrations are no longer just about moving data.

In this first blog of our new series, we break down the overlooked risks that derail even well-planned migrations, from identity drift and MFA friction to broken automations, Teams dependencies, and compliance gaps.

If you're planning a tenant-to-tenant migration during a merger, acquisition, or restructuring, this is where most projects get it wrong.

At Olive + Goose, we help enterprises navigate complex M365 migrations with a focus on identity, security, and governance - ensuring continuity beyond cutover.

Mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and corporate restructurings frequently force organizations into cross-tenant Microsoft 365 migrations. Over the past few years, Microsoft has greatly improved its native tenant-to-tenant (T2T) tools for Exchange Online, OneDrive, and SharePoint Online. While the...

Technology is changing how we work, but not what great client services looks like. Sanna Hansen, who runs client services for our business consulting team, shares the fundamentals she keeps coming back to in our latest blog post.

It’s true that we are in a time where technology is moving fast and how we work is changing. In environments like this, I think it becomes even more important to keep some things consistent and non-negotiable in how we show up for clients. Yes, we can pivot, learn, and innovate, but while doing so...
