Migrating to Office 365 can be done manually, but it often proves to be time-consuming and technically challenging, especially for businesses managing large volumes of data. The manual process typically involves exporting emails to PST files from the source platform (like Exchange or IMAP servers), creating mailboxes in Office 365, and importing PST files using the Microsoft 365 Import Service. However, this approach requires significant expertise in PowerShell scripting, careful mailbox mapping, and thorough pre-migration planning. Common challenges include data loss, downtime, and issues with email formatting or folder structure preservation.
