Case Study: NHS Arden & GEM achieves a seamless, secure Office 365 migration and major time savings with Metalogix Software

NHS Arden & GEM Commissioning Support Unit migrates seamlessly and securely with Quest Metalogix solutions

NHS Arden & GEM faced a complex, high‑risk cloud migration: a three‑person IT team supporting 1,500 users needed to move SharePoint 2007/2010 (including sensitive financial records) to Office 365, but manual migration was slow, error‑prone, and lacked granular restore and auditability. To address this they engaged Metalogix Software and adopted Metalogix Essentials for Office 365 (implemented with support from Quest) to replace manual processes and ensure secure, auditable transfers.

Metalogix Software’s Metalogix Essentials for Office 365 automated the migration, preserved version history and audit trails, handled special‑case issues via responsive support, and allowed staged, compliant moves of sensitive data. The outcome was immediate ROI and huge productivity gains—work that would have taken two people a month was done in a day—significantly reduced man‑hours and human error, better data rationalization (finding ~80% unnecessary data), and greater agility for NHS Arden & GEM.
