The BitTitan Migration is Not the Reason for Your Success (Or Failure)

Everyone praises BitTitan when migrations go well and blames it when they don’t. After migrating 1,000+ mailboxes across multiple enterprise projects, I’ve seen enough to know the tool is rarely the problem.

MigrationWiz is solid. I’ve used it as the primary tool across multiple engagements and it performs consistently. That consistency is exactly why, when a migration goes wrong, the first place to look isn’t the platform.

The actual culprits are Autodiscover misconfigurations, shared mailbox permissions, and delegated access that nobody mapped before the batch ran. MigrationWiz doesn’t fix those. Nothing does except an engineer who found them first.

At one company, we built a runbook practice specifically to surface these variables before the first batch touched a mailbox — not at 2am during cutover when the options are limited and the pressure is high.

The pattern I see in failed migrations is consistent. Organizations buy the license. They underinvest in the engineer who runs the pre-migration scan and coordinates stakeholder communication. Those two line items are where the 100 post-migration tickets come from.

BitTitan is a precision instrument. It performs exactly as well as the person holding it.
