Microsoft 365, set up right or migrated cleanly.

Mail, files, Teams and SharePoint configured so people find what they need, sign-in and security done once and properly, and Mac and Windows treated the same. Moving from a server, from Google Workspace or from a provider that never finished the job. Staying on Google Workspace? We set up and secure that too.

What’s included

A Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider that configures the platform the way it was meant to run, then makes sure your people can use it.

Tenant setup

Domains, the licences you actually need, mail flow, retention, backup, admin roles. No defaults left in place because nobody looked.

Migration without a lost day

Mailboxes, calendars, files and shared drives moved from an on-premises server, Google Workspace or another provider. Planned cutover, staged where needed, old system kept until the new one is proven.

Sign-in and identity

Microsoft Entra ID as the one identity for every app, single sign-on, multifactor authentication that people tolerate, and access rules that trust the device.

Teams and SharePoint that make sense

A structure people understand, OneDrive set up so files aren’t lost on a laptop, permissions that match how the business actually works.

Devices in the same console

Intune for Windows and Mac, Windows Autopilot for new PCs, Apple Business Manager for Mac. One identity, one policy set, a mixed fleet that behaves.

Google Workspace, too

On Google and happy? We tidy and secure it. Running both? We connect the identities so people sign in once. We recommend the platform that fits, not the one we’d rather sell.

How it runs

  1. Assess

    What you run today, what’s in the mailboxes and shared drives, who signs in from where, what the contracts say. A short written picture and the first decisions.

  2. Design

    The target tenant — identity, mail, files, Teams, devices, security — decided and documented before anything moves. Licences matched to roles, not to the biggest bundle.

  3. Migrate

    Staged where needed, a cutover planned around your calendar. People keep working; the old system stays until the new one is proven.

  4. Adopt

    A one-page guide for every change, training that sticks, and a support path people trust. We hand over an environment that is documented and yours.

Who it’s for
  • Businesses still running mail or files on a server in the closet, or on a hosting plan that has reached its limits.
  • Companies that bought Microsoft 365 licences and never had anyone set the platform up properly.
  • Teams on Google Workspace that are moving, staying, or running both and tired of two sign-ins.
  • Growing companies that need sign-in, security and devices to work the same for the next twenty hires as they do today.

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to move to Microsoft 365?
No. If Google Workspace fits your business, we’ll say so and set it up properly. We’re a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider because most of our clients run Microsoft 365, not because it is the only right answer.
What about Copilot?
Copilot earns its keep for some roles and not others. We’ll tell you who should have a licence, set it up with the right data boundaries, and leave the rest of the team on the standard plan.
Will our Mac computers work properly?
Yes. Mac computers sign in with Entra ID, run the Office apps and Teams, and are managed in Intune or Jamf alongside the Windows PCs. See Mac deployment and management.
How long does a migration take?
It depends on how much data there is and how many systems feed it. We scope it in writing before you commit, and we stage it so the business never stops.
Can you work with our current IT provider?
Yes. We often design and run the migration while your provider keeps the day-to-day support, and we’re clear from the first week about who owns what.
