Our organization is planning to consolidate two Microsoft 365 environments, and one of the biggest challenges is moving SharePoint and OneDrive data without disrupting existing access permissions. Both tenants contain important business documents, departmental folders, project libraries, and employee files. Simply transferring the documents to the destination tenant is not enough because users also need appropriate access after the migration.
I am trying to understand how SharePoint tenant to tenant migration works when the source environment contains multiple sites, document libraries, and customized permission settings. For example, some users have full control over specific sites, while others can only view or edit selected folders. If these permissions are not mapped correctly, employees may lose access to important resources or receive access they should not have.
OneDrive migration raises similar concerns. Each employee has personal work files, shared documents, and folder structures that need to remain organized in the destination environment. I would also like to know how external sharing links and existing collaboration arrangements are handled when moving data between tenants.
While exploring Microsoft 365 tenant migration solutions, I found the SysInfo Microsoft 365 Tenant to Tenant Migration Tool, which supports SharePoint and OneDrive migration along with source-to-destination mapping. These capabilities seem useful for organizations managing multiple Microsoft 365 workloads.
For administrators who have completed a cross-tenant SharePoint or OneDrive migration, how did you handle permission mapping? Did you recreate access permissions manually or use an automated migration process? I would also appreciate recommendations for validating destination access, checking document counts, and preventing broken collaboration workflows after the migration.
