The Solution

Employing automation and user training to deliver seamless transition

Infosys helped in migrating 2500 sites of around 6.5+ TB across 20 Waves in 5 months with 40% schedule optimization. We also helped in upgrading 5400+ sites to modern experience seamlessly over a span of 9 months. 125 Nintex workflows were recreated in Power Automates across 16 Waves in just 4 months.

By analyzing sites & Nintex workflows, we identified optimal solutions, best practices and planned for strategic waves to execute the transformation using a sprint-based model.

What did we do?

  • Leveraged Power Automate to replace Nintex workflows to save on licensing costs. Our in-house migration factory framework was enhanced to completely automate the migration process, which brought down the costs required to migrate sites manually.
  • Weekly webinars conducted at various time zones to train users and personalized support portal with numerous help documents & video tutorials was provisioned. A chatbot that could support 8400+ queries, was developed.
  • Unsupported components in modern experience were achieved with other technologies like JavaScript, jQuery, Power Apps and Power Automates
  • Optimal workarounds were identified and implemented to overcome the limitations in Nintex workflows to Power Automate conversion.

Improve efficiency and optimize costs

  • Execute a factory-based sprint model in complete automation and schedule optimization in the migration process to achieve higher efficiency.
