Migration from Office 365 to Office 365
through MailsDaddy

Manual migration involves moving data from an existing Office 365 environment to Office 365 without the use of any special tools or services. This method typically involves manually configuring settings, exporting and importing mailboxes using Exchange admin center, and handling DNS and user permissions. While cost-effective, manual migration can be time-consuming, complex, and prone to errors, making it more suitable for smaller organizations with fewer mailboxes.

Third-party tool: Office 365 Tenant Migration

Monthly Happy Hour (PDX Web and Design)
Rontoms

If you're like me, you spend WAYYYY too much time in front of a computer. I think it would be great to have a monthly get together at a bar or pub to just get to know each other, have a brew, and yes, talk about the business. Real human interaction, in other words. Repeats the last Tuesday of every month.

Starting September 24th we will be changing venues to Romtoms, on the east side of the bridge at Burnside and 6th St. We hope there will be more room and it will be easier to find the rest of us. We look forward to seeing everyone.

If you can't find us inside look for us out in the back we may be enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful open patio.

Monthly Happy Hour (PDX Web and Design)
Rontoms

If you're like me, you spend WAYYYY too much time in front of a computer. I think it would be great to have a monthly get together at a bar or pub to just get to know each other, have a brew, and yes, talk about the business. Real human interaction, in other words. Repeats the last Tuesday of every month.

Starting September 24th we will be changing venues to Romtoms, on the east side of the bridge at Burnside and 6th St. We hope there will be more room and it will be easier to find the rest of us. We look forward to seeing everyone.

If you can't find us inside look for us out in the back we may be enjoying the sunshine and the beautiful open patio.

RainSec - PDX Information Security Meetup
Lucky Lab Brew Pub

PLEASE NOTE: The December 2024 meetup deviates from our normal "last Tuesday" schedule, to avoid falling on New Years Eve. It is taking place a day before on Monday December 30th, at the usual time and place.

RainSec is an informal group of like-minded security professionals who meet to network and discuss topics of interest in a non-work, non-vendor setting.

While our target audience is experienced information security professionals, this is a public event open to any interested parties. If you have a friend or colleague who might benefit, please pass an invite along.

Follow @PDXRainSec on Twitter for last minute updates.

Because COVID-19 still presents significant risk to some members of our community, we ask that you observe the following and make your own risk assessment decision regarding your attendance:

  • If outdoor seating is available and weather permits, we will be outside.
  • If you are feeling sick, stay home!
  • If you've had a recent COVID exposure, stay home!
  • If you are not vaccinated, stay home!
  • If you are otherwise considered high risk for COVID, please stay home until you feel it is safe to gather in large groups (20-40 people). We don't want to be the cause of anyone's illness or death.

You can also find us on Meetup.com and Google Groups.

Welcome All Founders and Tech Pros

• What we'll do You will drink coffee (and tea for those who are recovering caffeine addicts) and talk with other great founders and companies in our local area.

• What to bring Nada. Just a friendly demeanor and willingness to meet new great founders and talk about your project.

• Important to know This is REALLY not the place you want to come if you are looking for sales leads. This event is a place to meet and share your startup journey and talk about your project. While we appreciate all the members of our community, network marketing and sales reps will find many short unuseful conversations in this crowd. Thanks for understanding.
