Migrating Microsoft 365 Tenants End-to-End: Cloud Workloads + Workstation Reprofiling with MigrationWiz and PowerSyncPro

Tenant-to-tenant migrations in Microsoft 365 are rarely simple. You’ve got mailboxes, OneDrive, Teams, SharePoint, and Entra ID identities to move—and that’s just the cloud side. What about the actual devices your users rely on every day?

In this comprehensive walkthrough, I demonstrate how to execute a full-scale migration that covers both cloud workloads and Windows workstations. Using BitTitan MigrationWiz and PowerSyncPro together, we show how to deliver a seamless experience for IT teams and end users alike.

This isn’t just a data migration—it’s a full identity and device transformation.


🧠 Why Combine MigrationWiz and PowerSyncPro?

MigrationWiz is the go-to tool for mailbox, OneDrive, and Teams migrations. It’s fast, flexible, and proven across thousands of tenant transitions. But it stops at the cloud boundary.

PowerSyncPro picks up where MigrationWiz leaves off—automating the reprofiling of Windows workstations so users can log into the new tenant without losing their profile, settings, or sanity.

Together, these tools create a unified migration strategy that handles:

  • Cloud data migration (Exchange Online, OneDrive, Teams)
  • Identity transition (Entra ID object mapping and domain cutover)
  • Device reprofiling (Windows login, profile retention, app reauthentication)

🔍 What’s Covered in the Video Walkthrough

This video isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a hands-on, step-by-step guide. Here’s what I cover:

1. Tenant Overview and Domain Strategy

We start by reviewing the source and target Entra ID tenants, including:

  • Domain configurations
  • Workloads to migrate
  • Identities

I also walk through the domain cutover process at the end — removing a domain from the source tenant and attaching it to the target tenant, with all the DNS and timing considerations that come with it.

2. MigrationWiz Configuration

Next, we configure MigrationWiz projects for Exchange Online and OneDrive

  • Set up endpoints and permissions
  • Create user batches
  • Kick off Verifications, Pre-Stage and Full Migrations

3. PowerSyncPro Setup and Account Matching

Then we pivot to PowerSyncPro:

  • Connecting both tenants to the PowerSyncPro portal
  • Matching source and target accounts using UPNs and object IDs
  • Deploying the PowerSyncPro agent to user workstations

I explain how the agent works, what it does during reprofiling, and how to ensure users retain their local profiles and app configurations.

4. Executing the Migration

With both tools configured, I:

  • Run the MigrationWiz projects to move mailbox and OneDrive data
  • Perform the domain cutover and update UPNs in the target tenant
  • Trigger the PowerSyncPro agent to reprofile devices

We show the full end-user experience—from logging into the new tenant to watching Outlook, OneDrive, Teams, and SharePoint reconnect automatically.


💡 Key Takeaways from this experience

  • Cloud + Device = Complete Migration: Most migrations stop at the cloud. This approach ensures users can log into their devices post-migration without losing productivity.
  • Automation Reduces Risk: PowerSyncPro automates what used to be manual, error-prone steps—like profile recreation, app reauthentication, and local data retention.
  • End-User Experience Matters: A technically successful migration means nothing if users are locked out or confused. This walkthrough shows how to make the transition smooth and intuitive.
