As organizations modernize identity infrastructure and move toward Entra ID centric environments, migrating Active Directory computer objects has become a critical part of many projects. Whether you’re preparing for tenant consolidation, hybrid coexistence, or a phased transition off on-premises Active Directory, MigrationWiz now makes it easier to migrate computer objects as part of your overall directory strategy.
In this blog, we’ll walk through how to migrate Active Directory computer objects using MigrationWiz and share a step-by-step video you can follow along. If MigrationWiz doesn’t meet your needs PowerSyncPro Directory Sync may be the better fit for more complex requirements.
Why Migrate Active Directory Computer Objects?
Computer objects play a key role in device management, security policies, and user access. Migrating them helps ensure:
- Devices remain manageable during and after directory transitions
- Group Policy and identity relationships stay intact
- Hybrid and staged migrations can proceed with less disruption
- IT teams maintain visibility and control throughout the transition
MigrationWiz now enables teams to include computer objects in their Active Directory migration workflows simplifying directory modernization for many environments.
