Use more accurate data insights collected via **Azure Migrate appliance** | You need to set up an Azure Migrate appliance for [VMware](how-to-set-up-appliance-vmware.md) or [Hyper-V](how-to-set-up-appliance-hyper-v.md) or [Physical/Bare-metal or other clouds](how-to-set-up-appliance-physical.md). The appliance discovers servers, SQL Server instance and databases, and ASP.NET webapps and sends metadata and performance (resource utilization) data to Azure Migrate.

Build a quick business case with **servers imported using a CSV/RVTools file** | You need to provide the server inventory in a [.CSV file and import in Azure Migrate](tutorial-discover-import.md) or you can provide the [XLSX export of your server inventory using RVTools](./tutorial-import-vmware-using-rvtools-xlsx.md) to get a quick business case based on the provided inputs.

We recommend that you wait at least a day after starting discovery before you build a Business case so that enough performance/resource utilization data points are collected. Also, review the **Notifications**/**Resolve issues** blades on the Azure Migrate hub to identify any discovery related issues prior to Business case computation. It ensures that the IT estate in your datacenter is represented more accurately and the Business case recommendations are more valuable.
