A partner at a CA firm rang me in the middle of an audit. Two years of client correspondence sat in the mailbox of a man who had left in March, and nobody had his password. On old webmail that is usually a dead end; inside your own private space in Microsoft's cloud, Microtech Solutions can turn that mailbox into a shared one, hand access to whoever needs it, and stop paying for a person who has gone. We set the leaver routine up during the rollout so nobody is improvising the next time somebody resigns.
🏢 From Quotation to Go-Live with Microsoft in and around Ghodasar
One morning a customer forwards you an invoice on your letterhead, from your email address, with someone else's bank account printed on it. Nobody broke into your mailbox; they forged the sender, because your area never told the world who is allowed to send on its behalf. Fixing it is a configuration job rather than a buy, and it has to be done in the right order with the mail flow watched before enforcement goes on. We do this a lot for export and trading firms in Ahmedabad that have been caught out once.
Six versions of the same price list are floating around a WhatsApp group and nobody can tell you which one is current. Microsoft 365 replaces that with one file in one place, editable by two people at the same time, with every earlier version recoverable for months (SharePoint and OneDrive). Most of the work is not technical - it is deciding, once, where things are going to live. We agree that structure with your team in Ghodasar before a single file gets uploaded.
🎯 Good Reasons to Move Off Your Current Setup in and around Ghodasar
A field engineer leaves a laptop in an auto and by evening your entire quotation history is in a stranger's hands. Company laptops and phones enrolled properly can be wiped from a browser, and on a staff member's personal phone only the company half goes while photos and personal chats stay untouched (Intune). Setting this up takes an afternoon and is worth nothing at all if you start it after the phone is gone. We enrol devices during the rollout so the answer already exists on the day you need it.
Headcount in a lot of Indian businesses is not a flat line - a factory office near Ghodasar takes on extra hands before a shipping season and lets them go afterwards. Licences bought through us move with that instead of being locked in for twelve months regardless. Seasonal staff can sit on a cheap web-only plan while accounts keeps the full installed apps on two machines each. Paying per person for what that person actually does is the whole idea.
Stopping Forged Invoices Sent in an Export House's Name
A design agency was working entirely out of a WhatsApp group, where the same brochure existed as five files with names ending in final, final2 and use-this-one. We built a small set of client folders in a shared drive, moved the live work into it, and showed the team how two people can edit one file at the same time and still get both sets of changes. Old versions stay recoverable, so an accidental overwrite is a two-minute problem now. Their client calls stopped opening with somebody asking which file is the latest.
🛡️ HONEST SCOPE AND WHAT WE CHARGE FOR
Buying Licences Locally, Billed in Rupees
Staff get a short walkthrough - twenty minutes, no slides - covering where files now live, how to share a link instead of an attachment, and what that login prompt on the phone actually means. Skip it and people drift straight back to WhatsApp. We run the session again for anyone who missed it, and for new joiners if you keep us on a retainer.
Day-to-day services our team handles for offices like yours:
▪Shared Drive Setup on SharePoint and OneDrive
▪Setting Up Your Company's Own Microsoft 365 Tenant
▪Licence Supply, Renewals and GST Invoicing in Rupees
▪Company Phone and Laptop Controls with Intune
*Please note: Licence prices are set by Microsoft and can change at renewal; our fees for setup and ongoing admin are quoted separately and in writing.*
💡 Engineering Fact: Sending a 30MB attachment to twelve people creates thirteen copies and often bounces at the far end anyway. A link to the file in the shared drive is one copy, always the current one, and you can withdraw access later.

📋 Models, Plans and What Suits Whom for offices in Ghodasar
Compare what staff get on each licence, from web-only apps through to installed Office and device controls:
Microsoft 365 Business Standard - Installed Office Apps, Email and Teams
For office teams who need Word and Excel installed on the laptop, company email on every phone, and one place to keep files. This is where most small and mid-sized firms land.
🔹 FILE STORAGE
1TB of personal cloud space each, team libraries alongside it, and old versions kept so an accidental overwrite is not fatal.
🔹 MEETINGS
Video calls for up to 300 people, recordings, and outside guests who can join without any Microsoft account of their own.
🔹 SETUP TIME
A fresh tenant with your area verified is usually usable within a working day, with the old mail moving across in parallel.
Microsoft 365 Business Premium - Standard Plus Security and Device Control
For firms holding client money, patient records or drawings, where one stolen laptop is a real problem. Everything in Standard, with device control and tougher sign-in rules layered on.
🔹 EVERYTHING IN STANDARD
The same installed apps, 50GB mailboxes, cloud drive and Teams - nothing is traded away to get the security.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
Desk-phone calling and the deep compliance tooling of the big enterprise plans; both are bought separately if you need them.
🔹 SETUP TIME
Licences apply instantly, but we roll the security policies out over a week or two in groups so nobody arrives on Monday locked out.
Exchange Online Plan 1 and Plan 2 - Company Email on Its Own
For teams that already own Office or spend the day inside Tally, and only want a reliable inbox on the company area. Mail, calendar and contacts, without paying for apps nobody opens.
🔹 PHONE ACCESS
The native mail app on Android and iPhone syncs without installing anything extra (Exchange ActiveSync).
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
No Teams, no OneDrive, no SharePoint, no Office installs. Email and calendar, full stop.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with a perpetual Office licence already installed, or staff whose entire computer use is email.
Moving the Shared Office Drive into SharePoint and OneDrive
For offices still passing files around on a server in the corner, a NAS box, pen drives or WhatsApp. We lift the folders into the cloud with the structure and the permissions intact.
🔹 FOLDER STRUCTURE
Separate libraries for Accounts, HR, Sales, Projects and Management instead of one enormous Shared folder everybody tips things into.
🔹 WHAT WE DO
Map the folder tree you already have, agree who should see what, then copy it up in stages across nights and weekends.
🔹 HOW LONG IT TAKES
Down to data size and upload speed - a few hundred GB on an ordinary office line runs over several nights.
Microsoft 365 Business Basic - Webmail for Shift and Shop-Floor Staff
The entry plan for giving every employee a proper company address without buying installed Office for people who will never open Excel. Runs in a browser and on the phone.
🔹 MIXING PLANS
One tenant happily runs Basic, Standard and Premium side by side, and a person moves up or down at the next billing cycle.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
A 50GB mailbox on the company area, Teams chat and meetings, 1TB of cloud space, and the browser versions of Word and Excel.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Shift supervisors, drivers, warehouse hands, site engineers and trainees who need an inbox and a Teams message, nothing more.
Teams Calling and Meeting Room Setup (Phone System)
For firms who want the reception line, the desk phones and the boardroom screen running through Teams instead of a separate PBX box. Calls follow the person to laptop or mobile.
🔹 CALL REPORTING
Who rang, who missed it, how long people waited - the numbers a sales head actually asks about on Monday.
🔹 MEETING ROOMS
The conference room gets a camera, a screen and a console that joins the booked meeting with one tap, instead of ten minutes of cable hunting (Teams Rooms).
🔹 SETUP TIME
Porting existing numbers runs on the operator's clock and is the slow part; the Teams configuration itself takes a couple of days.
Device Management and Lost-Phone Control (Microsoft Intune)
For firms worried about what walks out of the building on a staff phone or laptop. Company data can be removed from a missing device without touching the owner's photos.
🔹 NEW LAPTOP SETUP
A machine can be couriered straight to a branch, unboxed by whoever is there, and configure itself to your settings on first sign-in (Autopilot).
🔹 WHEN SOMEONE LEAVES
Access is cut and the device wiped from the same screen where you disable the account - minutes, rather than a fortnight of chasing.
🔹 PERSONAL PHONES
On a staff member's own device only the work apps are governed - nobody at the office can see their gallery, contacts or WhatsApp (app protection policies).
Desktop Office Licensing for Larger Firms (Microsoft 365 Apps)
Installed Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook for organisations that have outgrown the small-business plans or already run their email somewhere else. No ceiling on user count.
🔹 LICENCE CHECKS
Each install phones home periodically, so a laptop kept offline for weeks will ask its user to sign in again.
🔹 AUDIT PAPERWORK
Clean records of exactly who is licensed, which is the question that surfaces when a bank, an auditor or a large customer reviews your systems.
🔹 WHY NOT A ONE-TIME buy
A boxed copy stops receiving security fixes once its support window closes. A subscription copy keeps getting them, which matters the day a macro-laden invoice arrives.
Ongoing Microsoft 365 Support and Licence Management (Monthly Retainer)
Somebody to call when a new joiner needs an address by 9am or a director cannot sign in before a flight. We look after the tenant month to month so it stops drifting.
🔹 MAIL DELIVERY WATCH
We read the reports that say whether your invoices are reaching customers or quietly sitting in their junk folder, and fix the area records when they slip (DMARC reporting).
🔹 WHAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY RING ABOUT
A phone left in a taxi, a mail that bounced, a shared calendar nobody can open, a folder deleted at 6pm on Friday.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with no in-house IT person, and firms whose IT person should not be spending Monday morning resetting passwords.

🛠️ Mailbox Plan: Who Needs a Licence and Who Needs a Shared Address
These are the habits we apply to every tenant we build, whether the company has eight users or two hundred and eight.
🔧 On-Site Work - What We Do in and around Ghodasar
🔹Drop the time-to-live on your mail records to five minutes a full two days before the cutover, so that when you finally switch, the internet follows you in minutes rather than hours.
🔹Agree the folder and site structure on paper before a single file is uploaded, because rearranging two hundred gigabytes after the fact is somebody's entire week.
🔹Keep the old system live and delivering alongside the new one for the first few days, then leave it readable but switched off for a fortnight before anybody deletes a thing.

🛠️ Workflow Setup
Old mail, contacts and calendars are copied across in the background over the following days while the existing system keeps running and staff notice nothing.

🔌 Guidelines & Sizing

📈 Upgrade Triggers

🔎 Specifications, Explained in Plain Words for businesses in Ahmedabad
After go-live, somebody still has to own it. That means adding joiners, dealing with leavers properly, keeping an eye on the security dashboard, and answering the question of why a policy has started blocking something. We hold the admin access with your permission and work to agreed response times, and you can take that access back at any point. The tenant is yours; we simply run it for you.
What we take on is worth pinning down before anyone talks about price. This service suits companies of roughly five to three hundred users who want proper company email, a shared drive and Teams, set up once and properly. Microtech Solutions handles the licence choice, the tenant, the area records, the mailbox and file move, the device and security settings, and the walkthrough with your staff at the end. Businesses in Ghodasar get the same running order at eight seats as at two hundred.

Three Responsibilities: Microsoft's, Yours and Ours
Microsoft 365 is a subscription that bundles the things an office runs on: company email, the Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook you already know, a shared drive reachable from anywhere, and Teams for calls and chat. Rather than buying software once and living with it for a decade, you pay per person per month and every part stays current. The whole thing sits in your company's own private space inside Microsoft's cloud, which is what the industry calls a tenant.
There are three plans most Indian businesses choose between. Business Basic covers mail, files and Teams with the Office apps running in a browser. Business Standard adds the full applications installed on desktops, laptops and phones. Business Premium adds the security and device controls: protection against fake invoices and links that lead somewhere they should not, plus full management of company laptops and staff handsets.

💬 Practical Findings After a Year in Service in and around Ghodasar
Do not lift an old file server into the cloud as it stands. Fifteen years of nested folders will have paths too long to survive the move, filenames with symbols the cloud refuses, and permissions inherited from people who left in 2014. I map the structure first, agree with the department heads what actually needs to come over, and rebuild it in a shape somebody could explain in a sentence. What gets copied afterwards is smaller, tidier and far less likely to break the sync client.
A network drive in the office with remote access bolted on is familiar and fast on the local network. It also assumes your office internet is up, that the drive is being backed up somewhere else, and that whoever configured the remote access did it safely. A cloud drive removes the box, the backup worry and the remote access risk in one go, at the cost of a monthly line on the bill.
Bolting a separate antivirus, a separate mail filter and a separate device management tool together works, and if you already own good ones there is no urgency to change. Premium puts the equivalents in one subscription with one place to look and one renewal to remember. The saving is real but the bigger gain is that a single dashboard tends to actually get checked.
💡 Engineering Fact: Microsoft commits to 99.9% availability with service credits if it misses. Read that honestly: outages are rare but not impossible, so the fallback plan is a mobile phone and a second internet line, not a spare mail server in the cupboard.

WHAT OWNERS LIKE AT A GLANCE
COMPROMISES TO ACCEPT SET OUT PLAINLY
✓Nobody starts the Monday staring at an empty inbox: the folder tree people built over a decade arrives exactly as they left it.
—Outlook 2013 and older will not connect, so a few desktops need the newer version installed before the move.
✓Sign-ins from an unknown laptop in another country can be blocked while your office carries on as normal (conditional access).
—Encryption on a document does not stop someone photographing the screen or reading the contents down the phone.
✓Meetings, department chat and file sharing sit in one place, which is how WhatsApp finally gets retired (Teams).
—Web-only apps come with the cheapest plan - installed Word and Excel need the mid-tier licence at minimum.
✓One username opens everything, and switching a leaver off takes a single click (Microsoft Entra ID).
—Office apps check in with Microsoft roughly once a month; a machine kept permanently offline eventually goes read-only.
✓An ex-employee's mailbox can be kept readable for audit purposes without paying full price for that seat.
—Litigation hold and case-based search do come with Business Premium (eDiscovery Standard); it is the advanced compliance tooling - custodian tracking, analytics, predictive coding - that only the top enterprise plan carries.
💡 Engineering Fact: The quietest sign of a broken-into mailbox is a rule the user never wrote - supplier mail sliding into an obscure folder, or a copy going out to an address nobody recognises. Checking for stray forwarding rules takes five minutes and finds real trouble.

Q. Do we still need a separate backup if everything is in Microsoft's cloud?
Yes, and this is the misunderstanding we correct most often. Microsoft's job is keeping the service running and the data centres alive; it is not keeping a copy of the folder your accountant deleted in March. Deleted items and old versions sit in recycle bins for a limited window and then they are genuinely gone, and ransomware that encrypts a synced OneDrive folder will cheerfully sync the damage upward. A separate cloud-to-cloud backup takes its own copy of mailboxes, OneDrive and SharePoint on its own schedule, and it is an additional per-user subscription, which for most businesses is money well spent.
Q. Can we buy licences in rupees with a proper GST invoice?
Yes. Buying through Microtech Solutions as your licensing supplier means a rupee invoice with GST on it that your accountant can claim against, rather than a foreign card charge appearing on somebody's statement. You can pay monthly or take the annual term, and the annual term works out cheaper per user but fixes that seat for the year. Do treat licences as a running cost rather than a one-time buy, budgeted the same way you budget the internet connection, because it renews whether or not anybody reviews it.
Q. Can we stop staff from mailing customer lists to their personal address?
Largely yes, using rules that watch outgoing mail and files on the shared drive for the patterns you care about, such as PAN details, bank account numbers or a document marked confidential (data loss prevention). When someone tries to send a price list or a customer database to an outside personal address, the message can be blocked outright, or allowed through with a warning and a record for management to see. Chat and channel messages inside Teams can be watched the same way, but that needs one of the larger enterprise licences rather than Business Premium. Start narrow, because a rule that catches too much gets switched off within a week, and remember that nothing here stops somebody photographing a screen.
Q. Do we have to commit for a full year, or can we add people as we hire?
Adding a licence takes minutes on any working day and the new person can be reading mail the same morning. Reducing is where businesses get caught out: on the monthly plan you can drop seats at the next billing date, but on an annual term you keep paying for that seat until it expires, used or not. For firms that take on extra hands around a festival rush or an audit season, we normally put the permanent team on the annual term and the floating headcount on monthly. That split keeps the bill honest without leaving anyone waiting for an account.
Q. Can we finally switch off the old file server sitting in the corner?
In most offices yes, though seldom on day one. We map the existing shared folders onto SharePoint and OneDrive, keep the department structure people already recognise, and set permissions so accounts cannot browse HR folders and the other way round. Files that a program holds open, such as a Tally data folder, a design library or a database, are usually better left on a local server or a NAS, because live database files and cloud sync do not get along. You gain access from home or a customer site without fiddling with a VPN, but you still need a backup, because the cloud copy is not one.
💡 Engineering Fact: A link that was harmless when the mail arrived can turn nasty an hour later. That is why the protection re-tests the link at the moment somebody clicks it, not just at delivery (Safe Links).
