Pre-Migration

At this stage, it’s important to assign your main point person who will coordinate with the Avanti team. We suggest an Admin User of Avanti.

In order to be as efficient as possible, we recommend including the following people/teams during this phase:

Changes to Day-to-Day Operations

With this move, there will be changes to you and your employee’s day-to-day operations. Your CSM will go through all of this with you, but for your reference here is a summary of some key changes:

Remote Desktop Access:

You’ll be logging into your backend service through a Remote Desktop (RDP), which we will set up for you during the transition. This will be similar to how you logged into your previous On-Premise instance but it is hosted via our web servers.

Avanti Feedback Forum:

​We’ll provide you access to our feedback forum. Submit feature requests and suggestions on how we can make your job easier.
