Cloud migration isn't right for every business at every stage. Here are the practical signs that suggest it's worth a serious look — and what to do about it.
| Signs that apply | What it suggests |
|---|---|
| 0–1 | Probably not urgent — revisit in a year |
| 2–4 | Worth a proper assessment now |
| 5+ | Likely overdue for a serious look |
A good assessment audits your current systems, dependencies and constraints before recommending anything — not a generic "move everything to Azure" pitch. See our Azure migration and modernisation guide for what that process realistically involves.
No — some systems genuinely work better staying where they are, for now. See our piece on when a hybrid setup makes sense if a full move doesn't fit your situation.
It varies by business and can be planned around your schedule — a proper assessment gives a realistic picture for your specific systems rather than a generic answer.
No — most successful migrations move systems in order of lowest risk first, not everything simultaneously.
