How Xillio Untangles the TRIM Migration Knot 

TRIM Expertise

Our HP TRIM connector helps to extract records, containers, classifications, and custom metadata without leaving anything behind. 

Classification-to-Taxonomy Mapping

We analyze your TRIM classification scheme and build a SharePoint taxonomy that preserves your records management logic—making content just as findable after migration. 

Metadata Transformation Engine

Custom TRIM record types become SharePoint content types. Every metadata field gets mapped, transformed, or enriched as needed. 

Version & Audit Trail Preservation

Every version, every author, every timestamp migrates intact. Your compliance audit trail doesn't break. Our Link Redirector also helps to update links that point to archived content. 

Retention Policy Rebuild

We translate TRIM disposal schedules into SharePoint retention policies and Microsoft Purview rules—so your compliance posture stays strong. 

Container Strategy Options

Keep your TRIM container structure as separate SharePoint sites, or consolidate into a smarter, metadata-driven architecture. Your choice.

Why TRIM Migrations Make IT Teams Nervous

HP TRIM isn't just a file shareit's a records management fortress. Every document carries classifications, disposal schedules, security markings, and audit trails. Here's what makes TRIM-to-SharePoint migrations uniquely challenging: 

Classification Complexity

TRIM classifications are hierarchical and rules-based. SharePoint uses a flatter taxonomy. Mapping one to the other requires careful planning—or you lose findability. 

Record Types & Custom Metadata

Years of custom record types and metadata fields don't have out-of-the-box equivalents in SharePoint. Every field needs a new home. 

Disposal Schedules & Retention

TRIM's disposal schedules are embedded at the record level. SharePoint handles retention differently—through policies and Microsoft Purview. 

Security at the Record Level

TRIM's security model allows granular access controls on individual records. SharePoint permissions work at library and folder levels by default. 

Legacy Version Landmines

Older TRIM versions (especially pre-9.x) have custom databases, undocumented workflows, and integrations that require reverse-engineering. 

What makes these migrations complex 

HP TRIM (now Micro Focus Content Manager) served you well—but the world has moved on. Maintaining legacy TRIM infrastructure means: 

  • Rising maintenance costs and shrinking vendor support 

  • Disconnected workflows in a Microsoft-first workplace 

  • Missing out on AI-powered productivity with Copilot for Microsoft 365 

  • Security vulnerabilities in outdated on-premise systems 

If you're managing records in HP TRIM, HP Records Manager, TRIM Context, Tower EDRMS, or any legacy TRIM version (6.x through 9.x), it's time to modernize.

TRIM Migration FAQs 

Can you preserve my TRIM classification hierarchy in SharePoint?
Yes. We map TRIM classifications to SharePoint managed metadata and content types, maintaining your records management structure. 
What happens to record-level security?
We analyze your TRIM security model and recreate equivalent permissions in SharePoint—escalating to site or library level where needed. 
Do you support TRIM versions without current vendor support?
Absolutely. We've migrated from TRIM 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, and 9.x—including heavily customized installations. 
Can we migrate department by department?
Yes. Phased migrations by classification, business unit, or record type let you run TRIM and SharePoint in parallel during transition. 
How do disposal schedules work after migration?
We rebuild your retention rules using SharePoint retention labels and Microsoft Purview policies, ensuring continuous compliance. 
What if we just need to archive TRIM for legal hold?
We can export your entire TRIM repository with metadata and audit trails for long-term archival storage—no SharePoint migration required.
