Cloud Migration
Done Right.

Move to the Cloud Without the Chaos.
A Rollback Plan Before Anything Moves.

Migrations planned around your business workflows — not just the technology. Dependency mapping, tested cutover, and ongoing management after go-live from a certified Azure team.

Cloud migration planning and strategy

Your Certified Migration Partner

Migrations fail when they're planned around the technology, not your business.

Applications get lifted without being tested against real usage patterns, and the issues surface after go-live. We scope every migration around operations first — mapping dependencies, testing integrations, and building a rollback plan before anything moves. It adds a week to the timeline and saves weeks of cleanup on the other side.

What Changes

Retire your on-premise servers without the risk of getting it wrong.

No Surprise Problems at Cutover

We test every application against the cloud environment before migration day. If something won't work, we find it in staging — not at 11pm on a Friday.

A Rollback Plan Before You Start

If something critical fails validation in the first two hours, we know exactly how to revert. Rollback is written before cutover starts — not improvised during one.

Lower Infrastructure Costs

On-premise servers carry hardware, maintenance, and software costs that don't disappear quietly. Most clients see 25–35% total cost reduction within the first year in the cloud.

Managed After Go-Live

The team that built your cloud environment manages it ongoing. Documentation stays current, costs get optimized, and nothing drifts after the project closes.

The Plan

Every migration follows the same disciplined process.

Cloud migration discovery and dependency mapping
1

Discovery: we map everything that matters.

Every application, service, and dependency running on your current infrastructure — including the ones that aren't documented. Two weeks of this work prevents weeks of cleanup after go-live.

Cloud environment staging and testing
2

Staging: build, test, and validate.

The cloud environment is fully configured and every application is tested against it before the migration window opens. You approve the environment before anything moves.

Cloud migration cutover and go-live
3

Cutover: a switch, not a build.

Planned during a low-traffic window. Every step is scripted. Rollback is ready. Most SMB migrations complete with less than four hours of user-facing downtime.

What Changes

What your business looks like after a migration that went right.

Your on-premise servers are retired — no more hardware refresh cycles or unexpected failure events
Every application works exactly as it did before, because we tested it before anything moved
Infrastructure costs are lower and predictable — no maintenance contracts, no emergency hardware
Your team can work from anywhere without a VPN workaround or security compromise
The same team that ran the migration manages the environment — documentation is current and accurate

Client result

“We migrated off a 7-year-old server with zero unplanned downtime. ETG found three applications during discovery that our previous IT provider had never documented. They had a plan for each one before the cutover date.”

The Case for Proper Migration Planning

Why cloud migrations fail — and what a good one looks like.

Most cloud migrations that go wrong share a common root cause: the move was planned around the technology, not the business workflows that depend on it. Applications get lifted to Azure without being tested against real usage patterns. Integrations that worked against on-premise Active Directory break after cutover. Backup jobs that wrote to a local network share fail silently because the share no longer exists. These problems are predictable — they just require someone to look for them before migration day.

The discovery phase is where migrations succeed or fail. For a 20–50 user business migrating from on-premise Windows servers to Azure, this means two weeks of documenting every application, service, and dependency in your environment. Common findings: applications that use hardcoded IP addresses, software that requires local USB dongles, database connections that assume low local-network latency, and legacy applications with 32-bit dependencies that won't run in a modern cloud VM. Each of these has a resolution — but that resolution needs to be designed before the migration window, not improvised during it.

Cutover is planned during a low-traffic window — typically Friday evening to Sunday. Every step is scripted in advance. The rollback plan is written before the cutover starts. If a critical system fails validation within the first two hours, we know exactly how to revert without data loss. Most SMB migrations complete the actual cutover with less than four hours of user-facing downtime — not because it's fast work, but because everything was already built and tested in staging.

“We scope migrations around operations first — mapping dependencies, testing integrations, and building a rollback plan before anything moves. It adds a week to the timeline and saves weeks of cleanup on the other side.”
