Dirección en Centria TecnologíaAll was achieved 24h after the start, 1st time in my career after more than 10 years of migration. Cloudiway takes care of everything, Mail/shared mailboxes/Ressources/Teams/OneDrive, etc. You need one hour of consulting services to be sure everything is well set up before starting, but in a migration budget, this hour is nothing regarding the time you earn after in support issues…
