It involves some planning on the Taxonomy, normalization of user/groups, permissions, etc as MS $carepoint has differently done. The actual migration of data is the easiest part of this. If the $carepoint isn't going away OT allows it to be the Face and OTCS the working side of it(AGA).
Most likely there are at least 20 or higher vendors who will allow you to migrate to and fro . $carepoint has REST available OT also has REST and SOAP available for your data needs.
In addition, OT has a very simple utility called Object Importer(OI) which allows any decent developer to write XML instructions.OI syntax is explained in very simple English in its documentation people use VBA,Excel,Java,perl etc to come up with writing that XML.an example forum post .The downside to OI is speed.. which can be much higher with SOAP and rest api, However, OI allows you to put the instructions on 10 servers so you can multi plex its capacity https://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1641661
As well as the technical move of content, you need to consider the business mapping, e.g. metadata, which date is used for RM - the one from SP or when its added to OT - as well as permissions, SCLs, Audit etc.
Worth doing a good clean up of the content and versions before the move to reduce the rubbish, and the duration of the migration itself.
