Migration Paths
Detailed breakdown of all supported migration paths to ManageEngine Endpoint Central including other UEM products, ManageEngine point products, deployment model conversions (on-premises ↔ cloud).
Other UEM Products → Endpoint Central
Migrating from your current platform to Endpoint Central? Migrations from other UEM platforms use a combination of approaches depending on what the source platform supports — some data transfers via the migration tool, some through guided export and import, and some configurations are recreated fresh in Endpoint Central. The exact scope depends on the source platform's API availability.

What transfers in each transition: Only the configurations and data relevant to the target product are carried over. For example, transitioning Endpoint Central → Patch Manager Plus transfers patch policies, APD tasks, approved patch lists, and patch settings. Transitioning Endpoint Central → Mobile Device Manager Plus transfers Mobile Device Manager Plus profiles, groups, users, devices, and app catalog data. The tool selectively transfers only the data essential to your target product, ensuring the new destination server remains clean and optimized.
