The pharmaceutical company Zentiva has acquired Alvogen's CEE business in an acquisition at the turn of 2019/2020. In order to strengthen its position in the CEE region, expand into new markets and broaden its pharmaceutical portfolio, Zentiva needed, among other things, to integrate the IT infrastructure of the newly purchased part of the company with the existing infrastructure of Zentiva. How did she deal with this problem?
The key task of the project was migration of all users between two Office 365 tenants. Company Zentiva turned to ORBIT, with whom she has many years of good experience.
We started the four-month project in February 2020 by requesting all necessary documents from both Alvogen and Zentiva. This was followed by creation of migration scenarios and preparing the infrastructure to connect the two domains and Office 365.
The consolidation of user accounts in the domain and in Office 365 and the subsequent migration of a huge amount of user data, mailboxes, SharePoint and Teams took place according to a predetermined schedulewithout any complications and with minimal impact on users.
As a result, by May, the 1100 users and their accounts within Active Directory and Office 365. The migration to the new environment involved 25 TB of data in your OneDrive user repositories, 10 TB of data e-mail communication and 2 TB of data on SharePoint and Teams platforms.
During the project, we expanded our experience with ShareGate and Quest on Demand migration tools, which we will gladly use again in the future.
