Case Study: KPN achieves 79% faster migration of 4.1 TB to SharePoint 2010 with AvePoint's DocAve Migrator

KPN Migrates 4.1 TB Of Microsoft® SharePoint® Data 79% Faster With DocAve®

KPN, a Netherlands-based ICT services provider, needed to upgrade its long-running SharePoint deployment from 2003 to 2010. With roughly 4.6 TB of content and over 11,000 site collections (including ~5,000 case-management sites), the organization required a fast, low-disruption migration that preserved metadata and security, supported metadata mapping for case sites, and allowed jobs to run outside business hours.

Using AvePoint’s DocAve Migrator, KPN migrated about 4.1 TB and more than 8,000 site collections in 2.5 months — 79% faster than native methods — averaging 75–100 GB per night while users retained daytime access. DocAve preserved full fidelity and security, enabled granular filtering to remove ~11% of obsolete content, and provided 24/7 support, allowing the project to complete on schedule.
