Migration & management
Move to Microsoft 365.
Done properly.
Rush this and you inherit broken mail flow, permissions nobody understands, and a tenant that fails an insurer's first question. As a Microsoft Partner, we plan the move from Exchange, stand up the tenant securely, and keep it managed long after cutover.
You're paying for more than email.
Most businesses use a fraction of what they already pay Microsoft for: email, maybe Teams. Set up properly, Microsoft 365 also handles your files, identities, devices, and security in one place. We configure it that way, secure it to a standard that holds up to an insurer's questions, and keep it managed as part of your wider IT.
What we cover:
- Email migration from Exchange or legacy servers, planned to avoid data loss
- New tenant configuration from scratch, secured properly from day one
- Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), MFA, and conditional access policies
- SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive setup and permissions
- Intune device management for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android
- Ongoing M365 administration as part of managed IT
- Licence management: consolidated through us or via your existing reseller
- Backup of mail, SharePoint, and OneDrive
A Microsoft 365 environment that is configured well from day one pays back for years. One that is rushed or left undocumented quietly creates risk and cost in the background.

Email migration
Moving from Exchange, with your data protected and minimal disruption.
Migrating from an on-premises Exchange server or a hosted email platform is one of the most disruptive IT changes a business can make if it is done without a plan. We manage the cutover, validate every mailbox, and ensure calendar, contacts, and archive data make the move intact. Your team keeps working during the process.
- Pre-migration discovery and mailbox audit
- Email running in parallel during migration
- Cutover scheduled for low-traffic windows
- Mailboxes, calendars, contacts, and PST data preserved
- Post-migration validation against the source
- Defined rollback path if anything looks wrong
- Old environment kept until you are satisfied
- Tenant provisioning and domain configuration
- Right-sized licensing for what your team actually needs
- Entra ID identity setup with groups and roles
- MFA and conditional access policies from day one
- SharePoint and Teams structure aligned to how you work
- Intune enrolment for managed devices
- Documentation handed over at the end
From the ground up
New to Microsoft 365? We set the foundation right.
Getting into Microsoft 365 for the first time, or doing it properly for the first time, is the right moment to establish a clean security baseline, sensible permissions, and the right licences for what your team actually needs. We configure the tenant, set up identities, deploy MFA and conditional access, and document the environment properly from day one.
Ongoing management
Microsoft 365 admin, handled.
Microsoft 365 is not a set-and-forget platform. Licences expire, users change, permissions drift, and security advisories come out regularly. As part of our Managed IT service, we handle ongoing M365 administration: user management, licence reviews, security hardening, and keeping the tenant clean and documented.
- User onboarding and offboarding
- Quarterly licence reviews to remove waste
- Permissions and access governance
- Security and compliance posture reviews
- SharePoint and Teams lifecycle housekeeping
- Tenant-wide change and advisory monitoring
- Living documentation kept up to date
What good looks like for your business
A properly delivered Microsoft 365 migration is invisible to most of your team and quietly removes risk in the background.
Your data arrives intact
Avoiding data loss is the baseline for every migration. We plan the cutover carefully, validate mailboxes, and have a rollback process.
Your team can get to work
A migration that disrupts productivity for weeks is a bad migration. We minimise downtime and train staff on anything that changes.
The environment is secured
A fresh Microsoft 365 tenant is not a secure one by default. We apply the security baseline so MFA, conditional access, and identity controls are in place from the start.
IT does not lose track
Undocumented M365 tenants accumulate licences, accounts, and permissions that nobody understands. Ongoing management keeps the environment clean and auditable.
Common questions
How long does a Microsoft 365 migration take?
A typical Exchange to M365 migration for a 10 to 50 person business takes one to three weeks from scoping to go-live. Larger or more complex environments take longer. The cutover itself is usually completed during a low-traffic window with minimal disruption.
Will staff lose access to email during the migration?
No, if it is planned properly. We run email in parallel during migration and schedule the final cutover for a period of low activity. Staff typically experience a short reconfiguration window of under an hour.
What happens to existing emails and calendar items?
Everything migrates: emails, calendar items, contacts, and if required, archive or PST data. We validate mailboxes after migration and do not close the old environment until we are satisfied.
Can you manage our Microsoft 365 licences?
Yes. We can consolidate licensing through our Microsoft Partner agreement or work with your existing reseller. We do not mark up licences for managed IT customers.
Is ongoing M365 management included in Managed IT packages?
Yes. Microsoft 365 administration is part of both our Protect and Protect+ packages. This includes user management, licence reviews, MFA and security policy management, and SharePoint and Teams support.
