Enrich Document Metadata
Migration Manager allows users to preserve views, version chains, metadata and user-edit information as it maps and migrates site permissions and web part content during the move to SharePoint 2010. Valuable metadata locked within Office documents can be automatically mined out and promoted to columns where it becomes more visible and editable. Additional metadata can be associated with existing files to facilitate better categorization and search-ability post migration.
Auto-Generate Sites and Folder Hierarchies
During the migration of file shares to SharePoint 2010, administrators can automatically build out SharePoint sites, library and folder hierarchies. Using existing file system directory structures or other document metadata, administrators can simply build out hierarchies to smoothly transition to SharePoint 2010.

There are vast possibilities with PowerShell scripts as users can batch multiple list migration operations for convenience and re-run at any time or run migrations at night and view the results and logs in the morning. The process is simple as once a job is created, you can generate a PowerShell script with one click of the mouse to customize or schedule job along with other admin processes.
