Streamlined Remote Access with SharePoint Migration


In a bid to enhance remote collaboration and address VPN connectivity challenges, we recently undertook a transformative project. Faced with difficulties accessing their network shared folder remotely, our mission was to provide a more efficient and accessible solution. We proposed a migration of their critical data onto SharePoint, enabling secure and collaborative online work.

The issues that the company had initially were their remote users on site or working from home trying to connect on a L2TP (Layer two tunnelling protocol) VPN to access their shared network drives but their connections weren’t being established. Due to the frustrations and short temporary fixes for this, this resulted for their shared network drive to be migrated to SharePoint.

This required planning and thorough assessment of what the company had in their network drives, manage the amount of data to be migrated and using different resources to ensure a smooth and undisrupted process took place in a time efficient manner.



Results and Conclusion

Since the successful migration, our client has experienced a significant improvement in their remote work capabilities. The streamlined access to data and collaboration features provided by SharePoint has led to enhanced efficiency, reduced downtime, and increased employee satisfaction. Here at TSD we are proud to have played a pivotal role in optimising our client’s workflow and helping them embrace the benefits of cloud-based collaboration, even in challenging remote work environments.

Migration and Benefits

The migration process seamlessly transitioned the client’s network shared folder to SharePoint, eliminating the hindrance of VPN-related access issues. Now, employees have the freedom to work on their files using SharePoint from any location with internet connectivity. This migration not only resolved remote accessibility challenges but also empowered the client with the full suite of collaborative tools that SharePoint offers. Team members can now co-author documents in real-time, share resources effortlessly, and enjoy the advantages of improved productivity and teamwork.
