Case Study: Nordson achieves a seamless 400 GB migration to Office 365 and saves 240 employee hours with AvePoint Migration as a Service (MaaS)

Nordson Moves 400 GB from SharePoint® 2007 to Office 365® with AvePoint Migration as a Service (MaaS)

Nordson Corporation, a Westlake, Ohio–based manufacturer serving medical, electronics, and consumer markets, relied on SharePoint 2007 for collaboration across 7,500 users but faced end-of-life support and outdated infrastructure. With 400 GB of content scattered across multiple locations and customizations that couldn’t be easily reconfigured, an in-house move to Office 365 was impractical—Nordson needed a third-party, low-impact migration approach.

Nordson chose AvePoint’s Migration as a Service (MaaS) with DocAve Migrator and Content Manager to move 400 GB to SharePoint Online. AvePoint completed the migration within a three-month timeline (project work took four weeks), delivered a hands-free transition that saved 240 employee hours, minimized issues, enabled device‑agnostic access for field staff, and set Nordson up to expand its Office 365 usage.
