Estimate the readiness gap before selecting migration waves

Choose the answer that best describes the current environment. The result is directional and does not replace a source inventory or target design.

How large is the file share estate?

Volume, file count, folder depth, and old versions affect cleanup and migration waves.

Are data owners clear?

Owner validation determines what moves, what retires, and who signs off.

How complex are permissions?

Nested groups, direct permissions, sensitive folders, and external sharing risk can block migration.

Is destination architecture defined?

SharePoint sites, Teams, channels, libraries, metadata, retention, and ownership should be planned before migration.

How much cleanup is needed?

Duplicate, stale, ROT, long paths, unsupported characters, and oversized files affect schedule.

How ready are users for SharePoint and Teams?

User training and process changes matter when file shares become collaboration workspaces.
