Platform Hopping Made Painless

Migrating platforms can be a headache and it’s hard to know where to begin. Whether you’re starting a new revenue stream, need to get on an updated technology, or simply need a different platform, these projects can be complex and time consuming. Not to worry, Human Element has been there, done that when it comes to migrations.

what makes us different

What We Do

Every platform migration is unique and presents its own opportunities and challenges. At Human Element, we have the experience and expertise to guide your team through this process. We will partner with you to understand your goals, help you choose a new platform, then migrate and launch your newly platformed site.

Discovery

During our discovery process, we’ll gain a deeper understanding of your business and project goals, plan for data and feature migrations, and determine whether new data and/or UI/UX design is needed for the project.

Planning

Planning is key to any migration along with understanding the data models and how they translate from the old to the new platform. Human Element has used a number of data migration tools and all of them require an understanding of the how the data is being used today and how it will need to be used in the future.

Implementation & Experience

This results in a data migration plan that outlines what data will be moved, how and when, along with an estimation of the amount of cleanup (if any) that may be required. We’ll then begin custom development and testing iterations, showing your team progress every step of the way.

Ongoing Support

We’ll also assist you with learning the new platform so you are ready to take charge when the new site is launched.
