Migrate My Users to Windows 10

Windows 10 migration

Migrate thousands of machines quickly

Consider a leading healthcare company that migrated 19,000 machines to a new Windows OS. Or a large school system that migrated 40,000 machines across more than 100 schools.

Each of these organizations needed to map and update dozens of apps and drivers to the appropriate users and PCs, plus restore each user's data and settings. FYI, the healthcare organization came in ahead of budget. And the school system? Well, it finished a week ahead of an aggressive schedule.

Save time and money on all future migrations

It's no longer three to five years between major OS migrations. Microsoft's faster release cadence pressures IT to run multiple Windows versions in parallel and be in a continuous state of migration.

Simplify your images

Everything is extrapolated from the OS, so there's no need for so many images. The solution lays everything back down automatically.

Time-saving templates

Provision new or existing devices using templates that minimize configuration steps. Have users up and running with fewer incidents.

User Profiles and Personalization

Keep the user experience consistent. Extract and move user profiles, settings, and files between Windows versions fluidly.

Improve ongoing provisioning processes

Use the migration to upgrade your processes—improve your provisioning, patching, and software license compliance processes.

Deliver new machines with zero-touch

Create a system for applying your image and user profiles to devices that come directly from resellers.

Maintain security standards

Migrate devices to the latest Windows versions without un-encrypting them. Gain privilege management controls upon update.

Provide migration scheduling options

Users are less resistant to migrations when they can pick when to upgrade. Make it a simple click when they're ready.

Keep tabs on migration progress

Gain a real-time view of migration progress. Inform executives as you move forward according to plan.

Employ proven desktop migration solutions

Migrating Windows operating systems isn't only about solving a single problem. We can help you make permanent improvements to your Windows management and updating approach. Solutions from Ivanti enable you to automate the entire migration and provisioning process. Remember the school system mentioned earlier? The system's IT department can easily image hundreds of devices a day—more than 2,000 machines a week. Instead of installing and configuring applications, IT ensures there are no business interruptions while users move to an even more efficient OS.

Endpoint Manager

A proven, unified endpoint management solution.

Environment Manager

On-demand profiles, personalization, and context-aware policies.

File Director

Simplify Windows 10 and Office 365 migration and file access from anywhere.

Don't stress over OS migrations

Streamline OS provisioning

Update new or existing devices using provisioning templates that minimize PC configuration steps and propel your IT team to new levels of efficiency. Gain the flexibility to download device drivers based on PC or device type and have users up and running with fewer incidents. 

Hardware-independent imaging

There's no need for multiple images in order to migrate machines of varying models or manufacturers. Use a simpler, standardized image, then let the solution lay down the device-specific drivers, apps, and profiles related to the user.

Capture and centralize user profiles

Capture personal settings from users’ existing desktops automatically and store the data centrally, then re-apply it on-demand. Leverage this personalization to apply during a migration to a particular device, or to roam seamlessly between any machine running any Windows OS.

Migrate data between devices

Users save their files and data in many places—on computer drives, network shares, removable storage, and in the cloud. This solution gathers all user data and stores it centrally in existing IT storage, then makes it available as part of the user’s new modern desktop, on any device, in any location.

Prepare apps for Windows 10

Cut the time and cost of application-package customization by decoupling application settings from the package itself. Automate app configurations based on the destination OS and elevate user privileges dynamically to install. Track all licenses from the time of the new installation. 

Fast migrations

Migrate most machines using less time than side-by-side migrations. The majority of complete migrations, including user personalization, can be done in a short lunch break of 30 minutes or less.
