Overview
A rapidly expanding law firm was drowning in a disorganized file server that couldn't keep pace with their international client base. AltaCom migrated them to SharePoint, cutting document retrieval times dramatically and contributing to a 20% profit increase.

Document searches were time-consuming, cutting into billable hours and staff productivity
Sharing files with international clients was slow and unreliable, damaging relationships
Delayed access to critical documents impacted service delivery and deadlines
The Solution
SharePoint Migration
Migrated all documents from on-premises file server to cloud-based SharePoint
Built a structured information architecture with custom metadata and search
Configured secure external sharing for seamless international client collaboration
Implemented version control and audit trails for legal compliance
Training & Ongoing Support
Delivered role-based SharePoint training for all staff levels
Deployed ongoing monitoring and proactive support to ensure platform reliability
Established reporting dashboards for management visibility into document activity
“We couldn't be more satisfied with our move to SharePoint. The new system has made managing files faster and more reliable.”
