Migrating Existing Costpoint and Time & Expense to the Cloud
If you are an existing Costpoint customer, you need to work with a migration consultant to coordinate your migration to the cloud.
The migration consultant ensures that your transition to the cloud is a smooth one.
The following are high-level guidelines that your migration consultant will discuss with you.
- Convert your Costpoint database to SQL Server if you are currently running using Oracle.
- Ensure that your on-premise applications are running the same version as the cloud
- Do not patch your on premise solution beyond the patch that is active in the cloud
- Identify any third-party integrations and clarify how they will be supported in the cloud
- Ensure that your team is trained on how to use the new functionality in the cloud
- Set up your users in User Manager
- Provide Deltek Cloud Operations with the information they need to deploy your cloud solution
- Upload databases to the cloud
- Upload CER reports to the cloud
- Coordinate a “test migration run” to the cloud
- Schedule the “go live” date
