New PowerSyncPro resources to simplify directory sync and workstation migrations.

In any merger, acquisition, divestiture, tenant consolidation, or infrastructure transformation project, directory synchronisation and computer migration are essential; but they should not consume the whole project.

The real focus should be your business: keeping people productive, protecting access to critical applications, reducing disruption, managing change, and making sure the organisation can continue to operate smoothly while the technology moves underneath it.

That is where PowerSyncPro is designed to help.

PowerSyncPro handles the heavy lifting around directory synchronisation and workstation migration, allowing these technical workstreams to become a controlled, repeatable part of the wider project rather than the thing that dominates it.

To support that, we have created two new resources:

PowerSyncPro Architecture Advisor 

and

Getting Started with Migration Agent

Together, they are designed to help technical teams, consultants, MSPs and migration specialists quickly understand what they need, plan the right architecture, understand the decisions they need to make, and move from preparation to execution with confidence.

These resources complement our Migration guides, giving you a steer on what you may want to configure for given workstation migration scenarios. 

• The Architecture Advisor helps you choose the right shape of solution.

• The Getting Started guides you through the sequence, key decisions and setup steps required for a successful workstation migration.

• The authoritative documentation and knowledge base can then drill you into the detailed configuration.

• The migration guides on our documentation page help with your device migration scenario.

 Used together, they give migration teams a clearer path from architecture design through to pilot and production migration.

Architecture Advisor

This is a beta tool designed to help you work out which PowerSyncPro components are needed for your scenario. Rather than starting with every possible component, the Advisor encourages a simpler approach: start with what is needed, then add complexity only when the scenario requires it.

The Advisor asks for information about your source, target and migration goals, constraints (and how PowerSyncPro can provide solutions), then returns a tailored bill of materials, component recommendations and links to relevant migration guides.

This is useful for early planning conversations, pre-sales discovery, internal design reviews and technical validation. It gives teams a clearer way to answer questions such as:

• Do we need a Remote Sync Agent?
• What ports need to be open where, to support my goals?
• What is the flow of data for firewall reviews?
• What kind of migration path are we actually designing?
  
  

Getting Started with PowerSyncPro

The new Getting Started with PowerSyncPro page is a guided journey from a freshly installed server through to a migrated device. It sets out the full route in order:  

1. 1. Preparing the environment
2. 2. Installing the platform
3. 3. Opening connectivity
4. 4. Adding directories
5. 5. Building the sync profile
6. 6. Creating runbooks and batches
7. 7. Applying licensing
8. 8. Testing
9. 9. Deploying the agent, and
10. 10. Running the migration

The page is especially useful because it doesn’t just tell you what to configure - it explains why each stage matters.

The goal of any migration project is not simply to move identities and devices; it's to keep the organisation productive, secure and moving forward. These new PowerSyncPro resources are designed to help you achieve exactly that, providing a practical roadmap from architecture planning through to successful production migrations.
