I used MigrationWiz to move about 500 user accounts from different Microsoft 365 tenants into 1 Microsoft 365 tenant. Overall, MigrationWiz does exactly what you need it to do - move data. I was able to implement this myself by just following the guides available from the MigrationWiz support site.

Support is horrible. Takes too long, doesn't fully address issue without pushback.

Performance of MigrationWiz Across Market Features

MigrationWiz Likes & Dislikes

I would say ease of use with the product portal. It is very easy to understand, and the layout is not confusing.

Automation, Admin portals are good, DeploymentPro is awkward and sometimes reverts sending address. PowerShell tools are helpful.

Licensing is fairly inexpensive. Mailbox migrations are quick and depending on the size of the organization can be completed in a weekend with minimal down time. Administrators can stage large mailboxes, plan cutovers months in advance and merge differential data at will.

What I dislike the most about this product is the connectivity into Microsoft 365. I know this isn't MigrationWiz's fault since Microsoft decides on how external entities can tie into the tenant, this is still the challenging part. There are also multiple guides that you can get lost in for the same migrations since Microsoft is evolving their processes so fast. This can lead to misconfiguring the migration as it is an outdated source.

Support takes 12-24 hours to respond. System issues during a migration where you are changing MX records make that very difficult. DMA/DeploymentPro's scheduling portal has issues if installed via GPO if users are using a local account or UPN doesn't match their email address. Product had several issues that caused Verify Credentials to take 8 hours and support never addressed since it took them 16 hours to reply.

At this point, other software offers a tool that can accomplish most of these features for free (depending on license tier). Large mailboxes can fail migration if bandwidth is restricted; if a migration is interrpted it cannot be resumed but must start back at zero. A service account is required to take ownership of all user mailboxes and could be considered a security risk.

Excellent data migration tool with advanced Error Reporting

Good choice if you're looking for data migration tool. Clean interface, no big learning curve, as it's highly documented and you are guided step-by-step. It is very versatile in terms of migration types. Top notch performance. Have not encountered any performance issues so far. Every migration is fast and seamless. Also has a very helpful reporting. As every error during migration is alerted to you and documented enough so that you can directly address the issue.
