Overview

Office 365 Migration and Consultancy

MS Office 365 allows you to budget for a predictable monthly cost for email services, ensure system availability through Microsoft SLA guarantees, access email whenever (and wherever) you have Internet access and reduce a sizeable management overhead from your IT team.

How we can help?

As a Microsoft Gold Datacenter competency provider, our experienced team of fully accredited Microsoft Consultants use a proven project methodology that will ensure you save time, reduce costs and maximise any investment in Microsoft Office 365 for your business. Over the years, we have carried out many upgrades, migrations and installations of Microsoft Exchange.

Our technical team are familiar with all earlier versions from Microsoft Exchange 2000, Exchange 2003, Exchange 2007, Exchange 2010, Exchange 2013 all the way to Office 365. We also understand and can advise on the associated Active Directory, PowerShell scripting, Licensing, Customisation, Email Archiving, Lync and SharePoint considerations that cover any MS Office 365 migration project.

Design

We conduct a Microsoft Office 365 Technical Workshop as the initial consultation exercise to understand your current messaging environment, analyse your network infrastructure and plan for a successful migration. This MS Office 365 consultancy exercise typically involves your own key technical team members along with SysGroup’s Senior Microsoft Architects and Project Manager.

Following the MS Office 365 workshop activity, we can provide you with the following documentation:

Requirements Definition – Summary of the technical, operational and business requirements.
Solution Design – The suggested methods and migration plan to meet the requirements.
Investment Summary – Detailed bill of materials including licensing model and professional services.

Implementation

Our team of fully trained Microsoft Office 365 consultants can help with every aspect of your migration project. Whether you need a full installation service, ad-hoc technical assistance or skills transfer during the final migration phase, we are flexible and happy to work with you as and when needed.

If you are looking at moving from Microsoft Exchange 2010/2013 or earlier versions, we can advise and guide you towards a pain-free and successful migration.
We provide full project management services during the installation phase, helping you eliminate risk, free up resource and deliver the project on time and on budget.
As an authorised Microsoft Partner, we provide full ongoing support and customisation services during both the install phase and post-deployment.
