Hey everyone! I'm starting to prep for a potential migration from our On-Prem Active Directory (AD) to Entra ID for our company, which has about 400 users. Currently, we have our domain controllers set up as virtual machines in Azure, and we're operating in hybrid mode with an Azure AD Connect server. Our domain is abc.com, and we also have a subdomain, def.com, that all our laptops and servers are connected to, plus we've got devices checking into Intune. I'm looking for any advice on potential pitfalls or challenges you've encountered during similar migrations. What should I watch out for? Any tips on how to best prepare would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot!

I recommend first transitioning all your workstations to a cloud-only setup, which might involve re-imaging them. This way you can see what issues arise when users are fully migrated to Entra ID. You'll also need to shift from Group Policy Objects (GPO) to Intune policies and rethink how users authenticate with their workstations.
So, is it absolutely necessary to switch to Intune policies before moving everything to Entra ID?
