Azure DevOps Migration

Azure DevOps to GitHub migration

Improve productivity, streamline delivery, and unlock AI-powered development

Reduce complexity and cost

Software teams face pressure to innovate faster—but fragmented toolchains and managing multiple licenses create unnecessary complexity, hindering their productivity. Duplicated tooling and siloed workflows slow everyone down. If your version control lives in ADO, but your teams are already working in GitHub, it's time to align tools with strategy. We'll help you simplify, streamline, and set the stage for AI-powered development.

One integrated platform. AI-powered. Future-ready.

By migrating to GitHub, you consolidate platforms and gain an integrated developer experience with Copilot, Codespaces, GitHub Actions, and Advanced Security working together. This tight integration enables AI to support your entire software lifecycle, from planning to production. You'll deliver faster, simplify operations, and stay ahead as GitHub's ecosystem evolves with Microsoft's product roadmap.

I knew what we wanted, but we didn't have the experience in Azure DevOps, how to technically implement all this. Eficode helped with the setup.

Using Copilot to develop Java-based code for our integration platform brought several benefits.

Pick the migration option that suits you

Whether you want to keep Azure DevOps (ADO) for planning, move pipelines to GitHub, or go all-in with a full migration, we'll help you adopt agentic AI across your software lifecycle, consolidate tools for better efficiency and governance, and maximize ROI on your GitHub investment.

Migration Options

How migrating code to GitHub enables Agentic AI

  • Single source of truth for AI: AI agents in GitHub operate on live code, historical commits, issues, PRs, and test history without cross-platform friction.

  • AI-orchestrated workflows: GitHub Actions combined with Copilot Agents enable AI-powered automation.

  • Proactive code and test management: Copilot AI agents can generate, update, and run tests automatically, detect failures, and suggest fixes.

  • Continuous learning: AI agents adapt to project conventions, test patterns, and past defect history, improving suggestions and automation over time.

Why do companies choose GitHub over Azure DevOps?

GitHub is where innovation happens. It offers first-class developer tools, powerful AI features, and integrates more easily with the rest of the modern DevOps ecosystem.

What are the benefits of migrating from Azure DevOps to GitHub?

Migrating to GitHub simplifies your DevOps toolchain by consolidating platforms and enabling AI-powered development. With GitHub Copilot, Actions, and Advanced Security, you get faster delivery, improved collaboration, and reduced licensing and maintenance costs.

Do we need to migrate from Azure DevOps to GitHub?

No, both platforms are endorsed by Microsoft and work great together. We help you understand what to migrate to GitHub and what to integrate with Azure DevOps to create the best developer experience.

What does Eficode’s migration include?

We cover everything from planning and data transfer to post-migration support. That includes repositories, pipelines, permissions, work items, and team enablement.

How long does a typical Azure DevOps to GitHub migration take?

Timelines vary based on scope. A basic migration (code only) can take 2–4 weeks. A full migration—including pipelines, boards, and test plans—typically takes 2+ months. We’ll assess your setup and provide a tailored plan.
