Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our SharePoint consulting services

What SharePoint consulting services does EPC Group offer?

EPC Group provides end-to-end SharePoint consulting including SharePoint Online migrations from on-premises (2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019), governance framework implementation, custom development, intranet design, document management, workflow automation, and managed services. We've completed 625+ SharePoint migrations with zero data loss. Founder Errin O'Connor authored three Microsoft Press books on SharePoint, establishing EPC Group as a recognized authority.

How long does a SharePoint migration take?

SharePoint migration timelines depend on data volume and complexity: small migrations (< 500 GB, 10K documents) take 2-4 weeks, mid-sized migrations (500 GB - 5 TB) take 6-12 weeks, and enterprise migrations (> 5 TB, multiple site collections) take 3-6 months. EPC Group uses parallel migration tooling to accelerate timelines while ensuring zero data loss and minimal end-user disruption.

Can you migrate from SharePoint 2010 or older versions?

Yes. EPC Group specializes in legacy SharePoint migrations from 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016 to SharePoint Online and Microsoft 365. Our migration methodology handles custom web parts, InfoPath forms, workflows, and third-party add-ins. We modernize sites during migration, converting classic pages to modern experiences and InfoPath to Power Apps. We've migrated 140+ legacy SharePoint environments successfully.

What is SharePoint governance and why is it important?

SharePoint governance defines policies, standards, and processes for managing SharePoint environments including site provisioning, permissions management, content lifecycle, retention policies, and compliance. Without governance, organizations experience permission sprawl, ungoverned site proliferation, compliance violations, and performance degradation. EPC Group implements governance frameworks with automated provisioning workflows, permission auditing, and policy enforcement, reducing administrative overhead by 60%.

Do you provide SharePoint training and ongoing support?

Yes. EPC Group offers SharePoint training for end users, site owners, and administrators. Training covers document libraries, lists, workflows, permissions, search, and modern SharePoint features. We provide managed services including 24/7 support, performance monitoring, security patching, and proactive optimization. Support SLAs include 1-hour response for critical issues and monthly governance reviews.

How much does SharePoint consulting cost?

SharePoint consulting costs vary by scope: governance assessments start at $15K, small migrations (< 500 GB) range from $25K-$50K, mid-sized migrations cost $75K-$200K, and enterprise migrations with governance implementation range from $250K-$750K. EPC Group provides transparent fixed-price quotes after discovery. Managed services start at $5K/month for ongoing support and optimization.

SharePoint Architecture: 2026 Considerations for Services SharePoint Consulting

Modern SharePoint information architecture in 2026 follows the hub-spoke pattern: 1 root hub per business unit, 5-15 spoke sites per hub, mega-menu navigation tied to Viva Connections, and sensitivity-label-driven sharing controls. Flat-IA legacy SharePoint farms migrating to this pattern typically see 60% faster content discovery, 40% reduction in 'where do I save this?' helpdesk tickets, and 100% sensitivity-label coverage within 90 days.

SharePoint Online tenant-to-tenant migration in 2026 is dominated by three approaches: native Microsoft 365 migration tools (free but limited to in-place tenant scenarios), ShareGate (best-in-class for permission preservation across hub-spoke architectures), and AvePoint Migrator (enterprise scale with regulated-industry compliance reporting). EPC Group selection criteria depend on user count, permission complexity, and audit-reporting requirements; typical enterprise migration runs 8-16 weeks at $150K-$450K all-in.

Decision factors EPC Group evaluates

  • Microsoft Purview content explorer for unauthorized PHI/PII discovery
  • Hub-spoke information architecture redesign vs legacy flat-IA
  • Migration tool selection (Microsoft native vs ShareGate vs AvePoint) by complexity tier
  • Audit (Premium) configuration for 6-year retention
  • Sensitivity label rollout with auto-classification rules
