Large-scale Microsoft Office 365 deployments with thousands of files, hundreds of dependencies, macros, compatibility issues and other complexities make the migration process difficult to manage. Managing a plan with so many unknowns makes it more difficult to deliver Microsoft Office migration projects on time and within budget.
Workscope provides a platform that enables you to discover, plan, manage and monitor the progress of a Microsoft Office migration project from start to finish. This means that your organisation can migrate to Microsoft office 365 faster, without impacting your users. No matter how complex your end-user computing environment, Workscope provides a data-driven insights and a roadmap to help you migrate smoothly.
Creating a migration plan is critical for delivering a successful migration to Office 365. Project managers often struggle to build a migration plan quickly enough because the end-user computing environment is so dispersed and is a constantly moving target. Workscope automates the EUC discovery process which enables project managers to have a clear line of sight across the end-user computing environment.
Visibility across the estate of end-user computing files enables project managers to understand the scope of the migration upfront. Typically, after an EUC network discovery scan, the deeper analysis of the EUC inventory is done manually. Workscope automates the deeper analysis of files, locations, properties, usage, embedded objects, dependencies and much more. The analysis makes it clear which users and files are in scope, therefore, enabling project managers to appreciate the bigger picture upfront. This ensures that resource requirements and timelines for the migration can be correctly defined right from the outset.
Workscope provides reporting with business context which means that managers can easily see where technical issues reside across the inventory of the files, how severe each spreadsheet migration issue is, and which users or processes across the business are impacted by each issue. This makes it much easier to plan the migration since managers can see which users/departments/files can be migrated quickly and which issues will require more time and resources for remediation prior to migration.
Many organisations are upgrading to the 64-bit version of Microsoft Office in order to handle much larger worksheets. However, many spreadsheet processes have been built with 32-bit controls which will not work when upgraded. Workscope identifies these issues automatically so that the business impact of upgrading can be identified before the migration takes place.
