Case Study: Wipro moves 125,000 mailboxes to the cloud with Microsoft Office 365

Wipro moves 125,000 mailboxes to the cloud in record time of 18 weeks

Wipro, a major information technology and consulting firm, needed to modernize its communications tools, reduce IT maintenance costs, and gain firsthand experience with large-scale cloud deployments to better advise its own customers. To address this, the company partnered with Microsoft Corporation to implement a hybrid solution using Microsoft Office 365, moving a significant portion of its workforce to the cloud.

The solution from Microsoft involved migrating 125,000 mailboxes to Office 365 in a record 18 weeks while keeping 31,000 on-premises. The implementation provided employees with modern productivity and collaboration tools like OneDrive for Business and Yammer. As a result, Wipro employees became more productive with anywhere access to emails and documents, the IT staff was freed to focus on revenue-producing projects, and the company gained the conviction to speak with authority to its clients about cloud deployments.
