Our ETL and data conversion services are designed to preserve information integrity while reducing the risk and complexity associated with legacy system replacement. IDT can extract, transform, validate, and prepare content and associated metadata for migration into platforms such as Hyland OnBase, FileBound by Upland Software, Microsoft 365 SharePoint, and other supported enterprise content environments.
Whether an organization is consolidating repositories, retiring an obsolete ECM platform, modernizing an existing content environment, or preparing enterprise information for cloud and AI initiatives, IDT provides the methodology, tools, and experience required to support a controlled migration strategy.
Modernize or Replace
Aging Legacy ECM Systems
Organizations relying on legacy Enterprise Content Management (ECM) and document management platforms face increasing challenges as technology evolves, software maintenance costs rise, and business requirements change. Aging content repositories can introduce operational inefficiencies, integration limitations, and obstacles to cloud modernization and AI-driven business initiatives.
Integrated Document Technologies (IDT) specializes in helping organizations extract, convert, and migrate business-critical documents, images, metadata, and index information from legacy ECM environments into modern enterprise content management platforms.
Our experience encompasses a broad range of enterprise content technologies, including Oracle IPM, Oracle Stellent, IBM FileNet, IBM Content Manager, Hyland Perceptive Content (formerly ImageNow), OpenText Documentum, ApplicationXtender, and other legacy document management and imaging systems.
Address the Challenges of Legacy Content Migration
Migrating enterprise documents involves more than simply transferring files between systems. Organizations must also consider document relationships, indexing structures, metadata accuracy, proprietary storage formats, information governance, and the requirements of the destination platform.
IDT applies established Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) methodologies, incorporating data validation and quality assurance throughout the migration process, to help organizations:
- Extract documents, images, and associated metadata from legacy content repositories.
- Transform and normalize index information for compatibility with modern ECM platforms.
- Validate converted content to help preserve document integrity and data accuracy.
- Consolidate information from multiple repositories into a unified content environment.
- Prepare migrated content for cloud-based platforms, intelligent automation, and AI-driven applications.
- Reduce the operational risks associated with retiring or replacing legacy document management systems.

Legacy ECM Migration to On-Premises and Cloud Platforms
Document, Image, and Metadata Migration Services
IDT helps organizations simplify legacy ECM migrations by extracting documents, images, metadata, index values, and related information from existing repositories and transforming that content into formats suitable for the target platform.
Our conversion methodology can include data analysis, mapping, validation, metadata normalization, image conversion, quality assurance, and staged migration to help preserve information integrity and reduce project risk.
Depending on the organization’s modernization strategy, converted content may be migrated into a new Enterprise Content Management platform, consolidated into an existing repository, or prepared for integration with cloud-native content, automation, and AI technologies.
Proven Success in Enterprise Content Migration
Rich Tarantino, Product Manager for Edfinancial Services, shares some key lessons from the conversion process: “Switching to a new platform was a real challenge; and as with other big projects, timing is everything,” he says, recommending that companies clean up old data before the conversion, and that IDT's contribution to the smooth transition was invaluable.
“When DCAA saw our process, they understood that we are validating as we go along, which reduces our risk. This kind of accuracy and consistency in our processes is valuable to our customers.” – Sean Hansen, Director Financial Planning & Analysis, Textron Marine and Land.
