In our experience running migrations across Microsoft 365 , Google Workspace, and Azure, the same handful of root causes come up again and again — and every one of them is preventable with the right groundwork.  \nRoot cause 1 — Incomplete inventory  \nTeams migrate what they remember, not what actually exists. Shared mailboxes, service accounts, forgotten file shares, and integrations with thirdparty tools get discovered mid-migration — usually when something breaks.  \nRoot cause 2 — No tested rollback plan  \nA rollback plan that exists only on paper isn't a rollback plan. If cutover goes wrong and nobody has rehearsed reversing it, a fixable hiccup turns into extended downtime.  \nRoot cause 3 — Users caught off guard  \nEven a technically flawless migration generates a flood of support tickets if users weren't told what's changing, when, and who to contact. Communication is part of the migration, not an afterthought.  \nRoot cause 4 — Security bolted on afterward  \nMFA, conditional access, and sharing defaults are often configured after go-live \"once things settle down\" — leaving a window where the new environment is more exposed than the old one.  \nKEY TAKEAWAY  \nThe planning stage in Section 2 typically takes longer than the technical migration itself—and that's normal. Time invested here is what determines whether cutover weekend is uneventful or chaotic.  \nRoot cause → where it's addressed in this guide  \n1 Incomplete inventory Section 2 — Discovery & Inventory checklist  \n\n| 2 | No tested rollback plan | Section 2 — Risk & Rollback Readiness checklist |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 3 | Users caught off guard | Section 2 — Change Management & Communication |\n| 4 | Security bolted on afterward | Section 5 — Security & Compliance Checklist |\n\nRua Technologies | Cloud Migrati","cbCailDWWF7Ww27r","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailDWWF7Ww27r","pdf",326548,13,"English","# Why Migrations Fail - and how to avoid it\n## Root causes and key takeaways\n# Pre-Migration Planning\n## Discovery & Inventory\n## Risk & Rollback Readiness\n## Change Management & Communication\n# Choosing Your Platform & Estimating Timelines\n## Microsoft 365 Migration Checklist\n## Azure Migration Checklist\n## Google Workspace Migration Checklist\n# Security & Compliance Checklist\n## Common pitfalls\n# Post-Migration Review\n## Glossary of Terms","[{\"question\":\"Why do cloud migrations fail according to this checklist?\",\"answer\":\"Migrations fail due to incomplete inventory, lack of a tested rollback plan, users being caught off guard, and security being bolted on after go-live.
