Does Microsoft have an offering/tool that makes it easy to move CRM data from on premise to the cloud?

    Have you considered using the Synchronicity Echo manged service?  www.synchronicity-systems.com/echo.  Usually about 10% the cost of a services led engagement, get more information from the link, or contact info@synchronicity-systems.com.

    Hi beapinkus,

    You should only use the Configuration Migration tool to move configuration data across Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement instances and organisations. Configuration data is used to define custom functionality in Customer Engagement apps, and is typically stored in custom entities. Configuration data is different from end user data (account, contacts, etc.).

    SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is much more robust tool for data migration.

    Do you already have a CRM Online instance? if not, you could consider using the LCS : www.youtube.com/watch

    If you already have an Online instance, if the data set is not complicated, and small set, then you could use the DataMigrationUtility in the SDK Tools folder.

    If your data set it is larger, and has complicated relationship, you could consider using SSIS solutions like the following

    Hi beapinkus,

    The Microsoft product SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is the best tool for moving CRM data from an on-premises instance to an online instance.
