Cloud & Microsoft 365
Practical cloud, collaboration and backup solutions for growing organisations, set up securely from day one.
What this service covers
Email, files and collaboration are now mostly cloud services. The risk is in the set-up: weak sign-in, no backup and loose sharing settings.
We configure tenants, migrate mailboxes and files, and put security basics such as multi-factor authentication in place.

- Microsoft 365 tenant setup and administration
- Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams and OneDrive configuration
- Google Workspace domain and collaboration setup
- Email migration and domain/DNS configuration

Questions about Cloud & Microsoft 365
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace?
Both are strong. The better choice depends on your applications, existing skills and file formats. We explain the trade-offs and set up whichever suits you.
Is cloud data automatically backed up?
Providers protect their platforms, but you remain responsible for your data. Independent backup is recommended for important mail and files.
Who pays for the subscriptions?
Subscriptions are billed by the provider or reseller and quoted separately from our service charges, so you always see what is what.
