Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, done right.
Most offices already pay for the cloud. Few have it set up well. We clean up the licences, move the mail without losing a message, and make the shared drive something people can find things in.
The weekend move, hour by hour
You leave Friday on the old system and come back Monday on the new one. Here is what happens in between.
- Fri 6:00 pmfinal sync starts
- Fri 9:00 pmmail records switched
- Sat all daymailboxes and calendars copy
- Sun 10:00 amfiles and shared drives land
- Sun 4:00 pmwe test every account
- Mon 7:00 amtwo techs on site
Licence clean up pays for a lot of it
The first thing we do is count. Almost every office we look at is paying for accounts that belong to people who left, or for the premium tier when the basic one would do. A 20 person office typically saves $80 to $250 a month here, which often covers the migration within a year or two.
| finding | seats | per month |
|---|---|---|
| Former staff still licensed | 4 | -$88 |
| Premium tier, basic would do | 9 | -$108 |
| Shared mailbox paid as a person | 2 | -$44 |
Shared drives people can use
One folder per team, one per client or matter, permissions set by role. Nobody digs through someone's personal drive for last year's contract.
- up to 10 people, one suite$1,500
- 10 to 30 people, files and mail$3,500 to $6,000
- 30 plus, suite to suite switchup to $9,000
Mail in the cloud still needs its own backup, and new accounts should start with MFA turned on. Tell us what you are on now and we will quote the move.
