It can be expensive and taxing to maintain IBM Lotus Notes applications while the rest of your environment switches to Microsoft technologies. That's why, when it comes to migrating Notes to SharePoint and Office 365, Dell Software is here to help.

Notes Migrator for SharePoint migrates Lotus Notes, QuickPlace/Quickr and Domino.Doc applications to SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013, Office 365 and hosted SharePoint, with high data fidelity, minimal downtime and fewer development resources than you thought possible. Notes Migrator helps you reduce the risks of data loss and a failed project with a detailed pre-migration analysis. You’ll stay in command of the transition with an intuitive project management console, while your complex applications migrate quickly and
seamlessly, reducing costs and your stress level.

Features overview:

• Scan & plan – Notes Migrator helps you discover Notes, QuickPlace/Quickr or Domino.Doc databases, classify them, and analyze their design and data complexity. You’ll be able to quickly determine which applications are unused and don’t need to be migrated, as well as identify those that will need development resources. The data collected during the analysis will also help you manage and automate the project
• Rules-based automation – Using the data collected during analysis, you can assign new target locations and migration jobs using a customizable rules-based engine. You can use predefined rules for standard Notes applications or define your own rules for custom applications. You can also automate hundreds of individual migration jobs, reusing design work where appropriate, to finish the migration faster and reduce the chance of error
• Easy provisioning – You can provision new SharePoint sites, sub-sites, lists and libraries automatically based on your source infrastructure, reducing IT burden. For example, you can quickly reproduce the schema of your custom Notes applications in SharePoint lists and libraries. You can reuse the custom SharePoint site and list templates you have already developed internally, or provision new targets for your migrated content from scratch
• Extreme data fidelity – Notes Migrator migrates Notes rich text and complex application data with no loss in fidelity, ensuring a smooth transition experience for users. It preserves all essential data, including keyword fields, multi-valued items, nested tables, embedded objects, document metadata and security attributes. It also maintains document links and HTTP links between documents throughout the migration by redirecting users to the current location of each document, whether it is still on Notes or has already been migrated to SharePoint
• Dynamic document destinations – You can choose from a variety of migration options for applications, beyond just lists and libraries, in order to best achieve business objectives:

–   Migrate to SharePoint wiki pages, basic pages and content publishing pages when users need an intuitive, page-oriented experience.

–   To archive content in a practical format, migrate to Microsoft Word, PDF or HTML documents.

–   For applications requiring custom form layouts, migrate your Notes documents to InfoPath XML documents, Web Part pages or custom Microsoft Word templates.

Complex app accelerator – Notes Migrator accurately determines migration requirements by detecting which Notes forms are being used as content types and which applications include complex data features. Now you can:

–   Migrate Notes schemas to custom lists or content types

–   Minimize the need for costly development resources by using native SharePoint features to migrate complex application content, including approval status, versioning and in-process workflow state

–   Move Notes form designs to InfoPath form libraries or InfoPath list forms, and Notes views to SharePoint views

–   Simplify complex migrations by migrating Notes data to SQL Server tables.
