The same process becomes more complicated for\norganizations that want to retain some aspects of their on-premises\nenvironments while moving the rest to Office 365.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The latter is the common case scenario for organizations\nthat require Office 365 for their mobile workforce but also want to keep\non-premises solutions for employees working behind a desk.

This is particularly true if you are opting in for the hybrid solution. Moreover, Active Directory quality is needed when setting up Single Sign-on (SSO) using Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) or Microsoft Azure Active Directory Connect. Despite this, the state of the Active Directory in your company is the most overlooked component in the whole migration process.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Active Directory may be ailing with a surprisingly high number of old or inactive user accounts, bad data quality, inconsistency in UPNs. It usually happens when Active Directory properties haven\u2019t been exposed like here especially when using Skype for Business and SharePoint Online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/office-365-migration-checklist-download\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" src=\"https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1.jpg\" alt=\"Image to Download office 365 migration checklist\" class=\"wp-image-1345\" style=\"width:743px;height:90px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1.jpg 728w, https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1-300x37.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20728%2090%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"Image to Download office 365 migration checklist\" class=\"wp-image-1345 lazyload\" style=\"width:743px;height:90px\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20728%2090%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 728w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 728px) 100vw, 728px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1.jpg 728w, https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1-300x37.jpg 300w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.futurismtechnologies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/downloadbtn1.jpg\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Solution: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We thoroughly inspect your Active Directory before making the switch to Office 365.
