Third-party data migration partners

There are many benefits to working with a RelativityOne partner who has earned the Data Migration Competency.

First and foremost, these partners specialize in Relativity and can consult with you on customized solutions or, in some cases, even provide their own applications to accelerate your migration. Second, data migration requires a combination of expertise and availability. While a lot of our customers have technical proficiency and availability, for many this will be their first large RelativityOne data migration. Partners with the Data Migration Competency bring knowledge and resources that can help accelerate your timeline and provide peace of mind. Finally, because migrations typically occur on nights and weekends, it is optimal for many organizations to rely on a partner for the necessary coverage.

Note: Partners with the Data Migration Competency are certified to support and understand RelativityOne standard practices for data migration. Each partner with the competency may implement expanded or enhanced offerings of value for data migrations, including but not limited to customized workflows or applications. For these reasons, approaches and processes may differ with each partner who has earned the Data Migration Competency.

The MCS Group

Having been at the forefront of cloud e-Discovery services as well as an early adopter of RelativityOne, the MCS Technology Solutions team is up to the challenge of migrating workspaces from many different providers and software platforms, in part, because of our full understanding of the underlying technology and processes for archiving and restoration to the cloud platform. Additionally, MCS Group is very familiar with the challenges that go along with migrating data from on-premise applications to the cloud. These challenges range from bandwidth issues, establishing a communication and outage plan, to managing custom applications or scripts that require upgrade or modification.

Through our extensive experience with migration, we have developed processes that promote the quality and completeness of your data and we will work with your team to identify potential issues before, during, and after data migration.

Although migration services are technical in nature, there is a great deal of planning that is needed when migrating from another platform. Our experience in performing data migrations will help you through other pain points of the process as well by supplying user communication templates and migration planning templates, preparing workspaces or other databases for archive, or providing general advice on cost-effectively managing your data.
