Hi Bastiaan,

I have the same config but did not move to P8 and are trying to move to Alfresco.
I hired a company to do the move but there is a very bad communication with the company

Have a look at tsgrp.com or talend.com for migration. Alfreco does not have an equivalent to the Panagon bulk load utility and it is my major concern ! ! !

regards

C

Thank you for the links. I have indeed also been looking to them earlier.

So if alfresco does not have a bulk import (which we barely use anyway) how are you going to bulk add your documents into Alfresco? OpenMigrate seams to be a good candidate to do the job.

What I have learned so far: (I keep this thread as my log book :wink: )

Rough Steps to take to get the documents out of the system:

Start importing the files back into alfresco.
