Migration guide. How to move from Data Center to Cloud?

If you're planning a migration from the data center to the cloud, this article might be of interest to you. We've compiled everything you need: guidance, functional differences between data center and cloud.

How to migrate?

We currently offer a simple migration, which involves manual steps to recreate the same configuration as in Data Center.

By following the instructions below, you can create the same configuration in the Cloud as in Data Center. We recommend ensuring that you have the same settings in Dates and Periods, Calendars, Worklogs (including the General and Worklog Attributes subsections), Permissions, and Visibility tabs. The settings on these tabs affect team work, capacity calculations, and future reporting.

Please note that it affects future bookings and statistics. It won’t show you historical results or worklogs.

To accomplish this, you can contact us to collaborate or follow these steps:

  1. Make sure Timesheet Builder is installed on your Cloud instance.

  2. Open the application configuration in Cloud and Data Center in two separate browser tabs.

For advanced migration, including time entries, worklog attributes, teams in them, capacity, and progress over time period, a migration tool is required. It can be built to suit your needs, your current Data Center configuration, and the features you use.
