- Rollback at every stage
- Arabic and English records
Every new system launch runs into the same wall: the old data. Customer records duplicated across three spreadsheets, Arabic and English names spelled five ways, mandatory fields left empty, and files sitting on laptops nobody has backed up. Moving that into a new system as-is just moves the mess somewhere more expensive.
We do the hands-on work. We find where the data lives, profile its quality, clean and de-duplicate it, map it to the new system and migrate it with checks at each step. Every change is logged, so you can show exactly what happened to any record.
What is included
- Data discovery. Every source found and listed: databases, spreadsheets, shared drives, email attachments and legacy systems.
- Quality profiling. Duplicates, gaps, invalid values and inconsistent formats measured before anything is changed.
- Cleanup and de-duplication. Records merged, corrected and standardised, including Arabic and English names and UAE phone formats.
- Mapping to the new system. Every old field mapped to its new home, with transformation rules agreed before migration.
- Migration with rollback. Data moved in stages with reconciliation counts, so any step can be reversed if a check fails.
- A change log. A record of every transformation applied, useful for audits and for PDPL data subject requests.
How the engagement runs
- Scope. The quotation on this site captures your sources, volume and destination system.
- Profile. A data quality report showing what is wrong and how much it matters.
- Clean and map. Cleanup and field mapping, reviewed with your team before anything moves.
- Migrate and verify. Staged migration with reconciliation, then sign-off once the counts match.
Questions
What is included in a data migration service?
A proper data migration covers discovery of every source, a data quality assessment, cleanup and de-duplication, mapping to the new system, staged migration with reconciliation checks, and a log of what changed. Moving files without the cleanup is a copy, not a migration.
Can you clean up our data without migrating it?
Yes. Some organizations need their existing system cleaned before an audit, a PDPL review or a reporting project, with no new system involved. The cleanup work stands on its own.
How do you handle Arabic and English data?
We standardise names, addresses and phone numbers that appear in both scripts, match records that refer to the same person or company across languages, and keep both versions where the business needs them.
How much does data migration cost?
It depends on the number of sources, the volume of records and how messy they are, which is why the first step is a quality profile. The quotation on this site gives you a scoped estimate in AED.
