Azure DevOps migrations
Whether you're after stronger enterprise planning, better cross-team collaboration, or more flexible DevOps tooling, Adaptavist helps organisations migrate from Azure DevOps to the platforms that best fit their business, including Boards, Wikis, Repos, and Pipelines.
Move beyond Azure DevOps with confidence
As organisations evolve, their DevOps and work management needs often extend beyond what Azure DevOps (ADO) provides. Adaptavist helps organisations evaluate leading platforms, including Atlassian, monday.com, GitLab, and Harness, and migrate Azure DevOps projects, repositories, pipelines, and knowledge assets with minimal disruption.
Through structured discovery, migration planning, and hands-on implementation, we help organisations reduce complexity, improve collaboration, optimise costs, and position their teams for long-term success, without the guesswork of a DIY migration.
This solution will deliver
Expert-led migration planning and execution
Support for migrations to Atlassian, monday.com, GitLab, and Harness
Minimised business disruption during migration
Most teams don't have the bandwidth to migrate off Azure DevOps alone
Choosing the right destination platform, mapping years of work-item history, and migrating without disrupting delivery is complex, and it rarely ranks high enough on anyone's roadmap to get the attention it needs. Left alone, teams end up stuck on tooling that no longer fits.
Outgrown Azure Boards
Growing teams need stronger enterprise Agile governance, richer reporting, and more flexible workflows than Azure Boards was ever designed to deliver.
Fragmented documentation
Knowledge is scattered across Azure DevOps Wikis, repos, and pages, with no consistent structure, reliable search, or clear governance in place today.
Tool sprawl slowing delivery
Repos and Pipelines are locked into Azure while the rest of the business standardises on Atlassian, GitLab, or Harness, creating friction and duplicated effort.
Risky DIY migrations
Homegrown scripts and manual exports put all of your history, attachments, links, and traceability at risk, with no rollback plan if something breaks.
Unclear costs and timelines
Without proper discovery and a TCO assessment, it's hard to size the effort, choose the right tooling, or secure budget sign-off with full confidence.
We handle the full migration journey, end to end
Adaptavist removes the risk and guesswork from moving off Azure DevOps. From first assessment to post-migration handover, our team runs the process so yours can stay focused on delivery.
Structured discovery before you commit
Every migration starts with a discovery that inventories your Azure DevOps usage, finds complexity, and defines the right path before any work begins.
Proven migration tooling and methodology
We use validated tooling and Adaptavist best practices to accurately move your work items, boards, fields, pages, and attachments into their new home.
Validated, low-risk execution
Test migrations, UAT support, and reconciliation checks mean that nothing goes live in production until it has been fully proven to work as it should.
Preserved history, structure, and context
Comments, links, attachments, tags, and page hierarchy carry over wherever your target platform supports them, so your teams lose nothing in the move.
Knowledge transfer and governance handover
We leave your admins trained and equipped with documentation and governance recommendations, so the platform stays healthy long after we're done.
We support migrations to leading platforms

Azure Wiki Migration
Azure Wiki Migration
We migrate your Azure DevOps Wiki content, hierarchy, templates, permissions, and attachments into the knowledge platform of your choice, such as Confluence, GitLab, or GitHub. Discovery assesses complexity and blockers to define the right path. Implementation then delivers the full migration, preserving hierarchy, structure, and readability.
Best fit for organisations that:
- Want to consolidate fragmented wiki content from ADO repos, projects, and pages into a central knowledge platform
- Need cleaner information architecture, improved searchability, and better documentation governance
- Are retiring Azure DevOps Wiki as part of a broader tool rationalisation or cloud migration
- Need to migrate large volumes of Markdown content with minimal disruption
What you'll receive:
- A full inventory of ADO Wikis, covering hierarchy, Markdown complexity, diagrams, and attachments
- A readiness assessment and migration strategy, including recommended structure and formatting gap analysis
- Full technical execution, from space setup and content extraction to formatting conversion
- Post-migration validation and knowledge transfer, with optional admin training
Azure Repos and Artifacts Migration
Azure Repos and Artifacts Migration
We migrate your Azure Repos code and Artifacts package feeds to the platform that fits your engineering teams, including Atlassian, GitLab, Harness, or GitHub. Discovery inventories your repos, permissions, integrations, and feeds. Implementation then executes the move, preserving history, branches, and tags wherever supported.
Best fit for organisations that:
- Are standardising source control and package management on a modern, CI/CD-native platform across engineering teams
- Need to preserve commit history, branches, tags, and pull request context during the move
- Manage multiple package feeds or artifact types across teams
- Are consolidating tooling ahead of retiring Azure DevOps entirely
What you'll receive:
- A full inventory of repositories, branching strategies, permissions, integrations, and Artifacts feeds
- A migration strategy covering sequencing, history preservation, feed mapping, and pull request linking
- Full technical execution, including repository, feed, and permissions migration
- Validation, cutover support, and knowledge transfer for engineering teams
Azure Pipelines Migration
Azure Pipelines Migration
We migrate your Azure Pipelines build and release logic to the CI/CD platform We migrate your Azure Pipelines build and release logic to the CI/CD platform that fits your delivery model, such as GitLab, Harness, or GitHub Actions. Discovery inventories your pipelines and dependencies to shape a target architecture. Implementation then rebuilds and validates them before cutover, minimising disruption.
Best fit for organisations that:
- Are modernising CI/CD tooling or consolidating around a single DevOps platform
- Need more flexible, scalable pipeline orchestration than Azure Pipelines provides
- Have complex dependencies and live production pipelines that need careful sequencing and minimal disruption during migration
- Are migrating Repos and Pipelines together as part of a coordinated move off Azure DevOps
What you'll receive:
- A full pipeline inventory and migration strategy, with a recommended target architecture
- Full technical execution, including pipeline rebuilds, secrets and variable migration, and integration reconfiguration
- Test runs validated against existing build and release outcomes before cutover
- Knowledge transfer and documentation for platform and DevOps teams
Azure Boards Migration
We migrate your Azure Boards work items, workflows, fields, dashboards, and dependencies to the platform that best fits your organisation, such as Jira, GitLab, or monday.com. Discovery maps the gaps and defines the right approach. Implementation then delivers it through mapping, test and production migrations, and validation.
