Are you still relying on screenshots of the MigrationWiz dashboard to communicate progress to stakeholders?

MigrationWiz provides a project-level reporting export that outputs a CSV showing migration status for every user in the project. That CSV, not dashboard screenshots, should be your source of truth when you build stakeholder status reports.

The export includes source and destination UPN, job status, items migrated, items failed, total migrated data in GB, the last migration timestamp, and error codes for accounts that are in a failed state. With that dataset, you can calculate percentage complete across the user population, total data migrated versus estimated totals, and the frequency distribution of error types.

Business stakeholders typically only care about two numbers: how many users are fully migrated and how many are not. Project management stakeholders tend to care about error counts and whether those counts are trending up or down across pre-stage passes.

With a pivot table built from the MigrationWiz export, you can satisfy both audiences from the same data source in under 10 minutes. You also end up with a timestamped record of progress at each checkpoint, which becomes important when the program retrospective happens six weeks after cutover.

Are you generating your migration status reports from the MigrationWiz project CSV export?
