Using automated tools, best practices and templates, we can assemble a complete picture of your current Notes environment. We collect statistics on usage, database size, application complexity and type. With this information, we can create a customized roadmap for your migration process which includes a detail migration target list by application type. The assessment process can conclude with a proof of concept application showing the functionality of some of your Lotus Notes applications using Microsoft technologies.

The Microsoft collaboration architecture is modular, instead of the monolithic architecture of Notes/Domino. Rather then a one to one correspondence between Lotus Notes and a single Microsoft product, applications map by functional type to smaller more flexible components. The Arcovis team is experienced at moving applications to all products on the Microsoft collaboration platform, including:

• SharePoint Portal Server
• Windows SharePoint Services
• Microsoft InfoPath
• Microsoft Exchange Server
• Live Communication Server
• Microsoft Office

Due to differences in data types and structures between Lotus Notes and the Microsoft platform, data migrations need to be planned out carefully. Arcovis uses a mix of custom and commercial tools designed to convert and move Notes data accurately. We combine these tools with best practices developed in previous engagements to create the optimum plan for moving your production data to the new platform.
