Common Active Directory Consolidation Challenges
Pre-migration assessments lessen migration issues, but
difficult to perform thoroughly
Maintaining coexistence throughout the migration is
complicated
Server migrations often need to accompany domain
migrations, prolonging the project
Progress and status is critical to project management, but
can be incomplete or missing altogether
Technical difficulty of project requires expensive senior IT
resources
Avoiding disruption to end users is key to success and organizational changes can
drive new standards
