Migrate SharePoint Site Data in 6 Steps

Six steps cover the full path from source choice to the saved report. Click a step to open its screen. Software Guide shows all 19 screens.

Source and destination screen with Microsoft 365 selected on both sides

Step 1. Select Source and Destination

Open PCVITA software and choose Microsoft 365 as the source. Choose Microsoft 365 as the destination too.

Workload Selection screen with the Sites option

Step 2. Choose the Workload

Under Workload Selection tick Sites and clear the other items. Inside SharePoint you can also select Document Library or Generic Listing alone.

Date Filter screen with options to set a period

Step 3. Apply the Date Filter

Date Filter migrates only the data from the period you choose. Click Next to move on.

Credentials screen with Admin email ID and Application ID boxes

Step 4. Validate Source and Destination

Type the Admin email ID and Application ID of the source and click Validate. Click Next after the permissions validate. Repeat both actions with the destination details.

Users screen with options for adding users to the migration

Step 5. Map Users and Sites

Open the Resources tab and the Users screen. Add users with Fetch Users, Import Users (CSV) or Download Template, then browse to your mapped CSV and check the success count. Click Validate until green icons show under Source and Destination permissions. Repeat on the Sites tab with Fetch Sites, Import Sites (CSV) or Download Template.

Sites list with the Start Migration button

Step 6. Start Migration and Save Reports

Green icons mean you can click Start Migration. Stop Migration stays on screen while the job moves data. The Completed tab lists the migrated sites. Download Report saves a Summary Report or a Detailed Report. Re-Run Migration opens Retry Failed Items, Re-Run Full Migration and Delta Migration.

Where Microsoft Methods Leave Gaps

Four facts from Microsoft Learn on moving SharePoint sites between tenants. PCVITA software covers all four gaps.

  1. 1

    PowerShell and Licences by Data Size

    Microsoft performs cross tenant site moves with SharePoint Online PowerShell. Licences go to Enterprise Agreement customers only and cost per 100 GB moved. PCVITA software gives you a Windows interface and one full edition at $499.

  2. 2

    Users and Groups Come First

    Microsoft needs every user and group to exist in the target tenant before the move starts. PCVITA software maps source users to destination users with a CSV template on the Users screen.

  3. 3

    No Second Pass for Changed Data

    Microsoft calls its cross tenant method one and done, so incremental and delta passes cannot happen. PCVITA software brings over later data with Delta Migration and resends failures with Retry Failed Items.

  4. 4

    Existing Target Sites Stay Locked

    Microsoft does not let you overwrite or merge an existing site in the target tenant. PCVITA software moves content into a destination site that you create before the job.

Prepare Your Sites Before the First Migration

Seven checks come first. Tick them off, then open the software.

  1. Create a service project on the Microsoft Azure portal. PCVITA software asks for an Application ID for the source and one for the destination.
  2. Keep both admin email IDs ready. You enter it next to its Application ID.
  3. Build the destination SharePoint site first. Content moves into a site that already exists.
  4. Match the permission levels. A permission level you migrate must be present at the destination.
  5. Check your proxy setting. The proxy must not block the network call.
  6. Check the Windows machine. Install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8.0 or above and keep 500 MB free for installation plus 20 GB for data. The Specifications table lists the rest.
  7. Test the free demo on a small site. Download the demo edition before you buy.

Azure lines follow the Microsoft page listed under Sources. System lines match the Specifications table.

Last Checks Before the First Job

  • Register the app in the Azure portal first. Microsoft says you record the Application (client) ID from the Overview page after registration.
  • Sign in to Azure with at least the Application Developer role, which Microsoft requires to register an app.
  • Create the destination SharePoint site before the job starts.
  • Keep both admin emails next to their Application IDs for the two validation screens.
  • Confirm that your proxy setting lets the network call through.

With the checks done, open the software and validate both sides. Software Guide walks through all 19 screens.

SharePoint Online Migration FAQs

Answers to questions admins ask before and during a SharePoint site migration, grouped by topic.

Working and Limits How the migration behaves from start to report

How does PCVITA software move SharePoint data from one site to another?

Six steps move your site data.

  1. Step 1. Choose Microsoft 365 as source and destination.
  2. Step 2. Select Sites in Workload Selection.
  3. Step 3. Set the Date Filter and click Next.
  4. Step 4. Enter admin details of the source and the destination and validate.
  5. Step 5. Load users and sites by fetch, CSV or template, then validate.
  6. Step 6. Start the migration, then save the report.
Which SharePoint items can I migrate from one site to another?

Document libraries, lists, document folders and document sets. Content keeps its metadata. User level and group level permissions move too when the permission level exists at the destination.

Can I migrate only a document library?

Yes. Select the Document Library checkbox under Workload Selection and the job moves that content alone. Generic Listing works the same way for lists.

Can I migrate many SharePoint sites in bulk?

Yes. PCVITA software transfers multiple SharePoint sites in one job. Load the sites with Fetch Sites or a CSV and validate the permissions. Then start the migration.

How are SharePoint permissions migrated?

Through user mapping. You pair source and destination users with a CSV. PCVITA software then migrates user level and group level permissions. Create the permission level at the destination before the job starts.

Can I migrate only new SharePoint data after the first pass?

Yes. Delta Migration inside Re-Run Migration transfers data that arrived after the first pass. Microsoft says its cross tenant method cannot perform incremental or delta passes.

Can I stop a SharePoint migration or retry failed items?

Yes to both. Click Stop Migration while the job is in progress. Afterward Re-Run Migration offers Retry Failed Items, Re-Run Full Migration and Delta Migration.

Which reports can I save after a SharePoint migration?

Two types. Summary Report is one CSV for all selected sites. Detailed Report covers every selected site. Click Download Report on the Completed tab after the job.

Demo and Price Demo access and licence price

Is there a free demo for SharePoint site migration?

Yes. Demo edition lets you test the workflow on your own site before you pay. Demo edition carries a data limit and full edition removes it.

How much does SharePoint site migration software cost?

Full edition costs $499. You get 30 day money back cover on the purchase. Your download link and activation key arrive by email within 15 minutes of payment.

Where do I download the migration software?

Select Download Now on this page. Demo edition is version 6.3.1 at 132 MB for Windows. Install it, validate both sides and test a small site first.

Compatibility and Setup SharePoint scope, Windows versions and what to prepare

Can I migrate SharePoint to Office 365 with PCVITA software?

Yes, between SharePoint Online accounts in Microsoft 365. You sign in to both sides with admin credentials. For a project between two Microsoft 365 tenants open the SharePoint to Office 365 Migration Tool page.

Does the tool migrate on premises SharePoint?

No. PCVITA lists SharePoint Online to SharePoint Online migration for this product. SharePoint 2003 to 2013 projects belong on the SharePoint to SharePoint Migration page.

Which Windows systems can install the migration software?

Windows 11 and 10 (64 bit) and Windows Server 2012 and 2016. PCVITA software needs Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8.0 or above, 500 MB of free space for installation, 20 GB for data and 8 GB RAM. Plan for an 8 core processor at minimum.

What do I need before I migrate a SharePoint site?

Three things. Create a service project on the Microsoft Azure portal, create the SharePoint site at the destination and make sure your proxy setting does not block the network call.

For many users, SharePoint is a complex application, and migration between two SharePoint is even tougher. Therefore, it is really important that users choose a robust utility like the SharePoint Online Migration tool. As a Technical expert, I always suggest using SharePoint Migration tool. With its help, users can migrate SharePoint data to another Online SharePoint site.

Cruz Theron, Hawaii

I thought that the data migration from one SharePoint to another SharePoint site is a critical task but the SharePoint Online Migration tool has changed my perspective. It exported all sites from one SharePoint site to another smoothly and I literally had to do nothing about it. I am satisfied with the high-class performance of this application and want to thank the developers!

Thomas Crown, New Jersey
