Learn More About Migration Tools

What are Migration Tools?

Migration tools help plan, manage, and execute the transfer or upgrading of IT resources: files, databases, applications, operating systems, websites, storage, physical and virtual servers, networks, and data centers. These migration tools enable the updating of IT assets to new platforms and products.

Migration tools can be broken down into the following overlapping categories.

Cloud migration tools migrate IT resources from on-premises to the cloud or between clouds.
These tools support three types of migrations: Physical to Cloud (P2C), Virtual to Cloud (V2C), and Cloud to Cloud (C2C). The tools help transform applications into SaaS (software as a service). Cloud Migration Services use these tools as part of providing the expertise to plan, manage and implement cloud migrations on the behalf of their clients.

Data migration tools migrate files and databases to new or upgraded servers, platforms, or products. These tools are also used to support cloud migrations and disaster recovery.

Application migration tools support the migration of ERP systems, content management systems, office suites, productivity and collaboration tools, email clients, shopping carts, and help desks to new vendor products. They include tools that convert applications into services.

Data center migration tools migrate operating systems, storage, servers, firewalls, and networks. These support three types of migrations: Physical to Physical (P2P), Physical to Virtual (P2V), and Virtual to Virtual (V2V)

Migration tools are used by migration architects, database architects, IT teams, cloud service providers, and business owners.

Migration Tools Comparison

Consider the following when purchasing migration tools.

Planning: The technical details of a migration plan will be dependent on the resources being migrated and the migration tool(s) selected, however, having a clear migration strategy and defined goals will help you evaluate your choices. Migration assessment and planning tools are available, helping to provide an understanding of the potential costs and impacts of a migration. These can be especially valuable for large-scale migrations to the cloud.

Cost: Investigate whether your new vendor or platform will provide free migration tools or support to facilitate the transition, as vendors often offer these services as an incentive to move to their products. Note the cost of any needed migration tools is insignificant when compared to all the costs associated with migration activities.

Migration Service Providers: Migration service providers will remove much of the burden of undertaking IT migrations. These providers are an attractive alternative for enterprises that undertake large migrations, such as migrating from on-premises installations to the cloud or migrating complex mission-critical systems such as ERP. Cloud Migration Services specialize in moving on-premises IT to the cloud.

Pricing Information

Vendors often provide free tools to support migration to their products and services. Depending on the migration tool, prices range from $20 to a couple of hundred dollars per month or per license. Migration services will provide a custom quote based on your migration requirements.
