Ask a small office where the current price list lives and you get three answers: a WhatsApp group, somebody's personal Gmail, and a pen drive in a drawer. Files scattered like that go missing the day the person holding them takes leave. When we set up SharePoint and OneDrive for a business in Kolkata, each department gets one shared drive that opens from any laptop or phone, with older versions kept in case somebody saves over the wrong sheet. The handover session at the end is where the habit actually changes.
🤝 Microsoft Microsoft 365 Licences, Setup & Email Migration Supply, Setup and Support around Michael Nagar
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 Michael Nagar before a single file gets uploaded.
You are paying for thirty licences and the accounts team can name about twenty-two people. Somewhere along the way somebody sold everyone the same plan, including the shop floor supervisor who only ever reads mail on a phone. A licence review usually shows that a mix of plans costs less than one plan for all, and that two or three seats can be dropped outright. We do the counting first and the quotation second, which is the opposite of how licences normally get sold.
✅ Benefits Your Accounts Team Will Notice throughout Kolkata
Headcount in a lot of Indian businesses is not a flat line - a factory office near Michael Nagar 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.
Most companies we meet have three domains: the one on the website, one from a brand name they stopped using, and one somebody registered years ago and forgot. Mail arriving on all three, none of them authenticated, is an administrative headache and a security hole in the same breath. Bringing them into one tenant gives you one address book, one set of records to keep, and old addresses that still deliver to the right person. It is dull work that removes a surprising amount of daily friction.
Retiring an Office Mail Server without Losing a Single Message
A diagnostic clinic in Michael Nagar had reports and patient details sitting in mail on staff handsets, with no way to do anything about a phone that walked out of the building. We enrolled the company handsets, separated company mail from everything personal on the staff-owned ones, and ran a wipe on a test device in front of the practice manager. Two months later a technician's phone was stolen on a bus and the company data was removed before he had finished reporting it. The rest of his phone was his problem, not the clinic's.
🛡️ SECURITY BASELINE WE APPLY
Training Your Staff So the Tools Get Used
Cutovers are done out of hours - a Friday night or a Saturday morning - because nobody wants mail stopping at eleven on a working day. An engineer stays reachable through the weekend while the final sync catches up. Monday is then spent at your desks in Michael Nagar, fixing Outlook profiles and phones one person at a time.
Pick the pieces you need - the list below is what we do:
▪Single Sign-On and Second-Check Login (Entra ID, MFA)
▪Company Phone and Laptop Controls with Intune
▪Licence Supply, Renewals and GST Invoicing in Rupees
▪Shared Drive Setup on SharePoint and OneDrive
*Important: Help provided under a support retainer is our own commercial service and neither replaces nor extends Microsoft's published service terms.*
💡 Engineering Fact: Nobody should ever be typing server names into a phone. Once the area is configured correctly a user enters their address and password and the handset works out the rest by itself (Autodiscover).
📧 area AND SPAM CHECK
Mail landing in customers' junk folders, or worse, someone forging your address? We will read the area records for any business in Michael Nagar and tell you exactly what is missing.
📁 Complete List of What We Supply near Michael Nagar
Below you will find licence tiers, security add-ons and the support arrangements that go with them:
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.
🔹 SETUP TIME
A fresh tenant with your area verified is usually usable within a working day, with the old mail moving across in parallel.
🔹 DESKTOP OFFICE APPS
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote on up to five computers per person, along with five tablets and five phones.
🔹 MAILBOX SIZE
50GB each, which is several years of mail for most people, plus shared calendars the whole team can see.
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.
🔹 BILLING
Per user per month. Plenty of clients keep general staff on Standard and lift only directors, accounts and IT up to Premium.
🔹 STOPPING DATA WALKING OUT
Mail carrying PAN, Aadhaar or bank account numbers can be flagged, blocked or encrypted on its way out the door (data loss prevention and sensitivity labels).
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
CA firms, clinics, exporters, and any office where staff carry customer data around on a laptop.
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.
🔹 SPAM AND VIRUS FILTERING
Every incoming message passes Microsoft's filters before it reaches anyone, which removes the bulk of junk and known malware (Exchange Online Protection).
🔹 SHARED ADDRESSES
Accounts@ and sales@ sit beside the paid mailboxes without needing licences of their own.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
No Teams, no OneDrive, no SharePoint, no Office installs. Email and calendar, full stop.
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.
🔹 NOTHING LEFT BEHIND
File dates, folder paths and version history come across, and a comparison report at the end lets you see the counts line up.
🔹 FOLDER STRUCTURE
Separate libraries for Accounts, HR, Sales, Projects and Management instead of one enormous Shared folder everybody tips things into.
🔹 PERMISSIONS
Salary and tender folders lock down to named people, and sharing outside the company can be switched off or limited to approved domains.
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.
🔹 WHY IT SAVES MONEY
Most firms find half their headcount never touches installed Office. Putting those people here and leaving desk staff on Standard cuts the monthly bill with nobody losing an address.
🔹 USER LIMIT
The small-business plans stop at a few hundred seats; beyond that we move you onto the enterprise line instead.
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.
🔹 HOW CALLS REACH THE NETWORK
We connect Teams to an Indian telecom operator's lines so the numbers printed on your visiting cards keep working (Direct Routing or Operator Connect).
🔹 BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Call quality is an internet question, not a Microsoft one. We test the office link and the backup line around Michael Nagar before anyone signs anything.
🔹 CALL REPORTING
Who rang, who missed it, how long people waited - the numbers a sales head actually asks about on Monday.
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.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Field sales teams, offices where staff use their own phones for work, and anyone who has already lost a laptop once.
🔹 DISK ENCRYPTION
Laptop drives are encrypted with the recovery keys held in your tenant, so a stolen machine stays a stolen machine and does not become a data leak (BitLocker).
🔹 HOW IT'S LICENSED
Bundled inside Business Premium, or bought on its own by firms that only want the device side (Intune Plan 1).
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.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
The full installed apps on up to five computers per person, updating themselves quietly, with 1TB of personal cloud storage each.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Companies past the small-business seat limit, and firms content with their existing mail who only want current, legal Office on every desk.
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.
🔹 BILLING
A fixed monthly fee against an agreed scope, in rupees with GST, kept separate from the licence charges themselves.
🔹 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.
🔹 LICENCE RIGHT-SIZING
Each quarter we list who is paying for what, point out the seats nobody has signed into for months, and drop or downgrade them at renewal.

🛠️ Teams and SharePoint Layout, Agreed Before Anyone Uploads a File
Read this before migration day. It is the running order our engineers work through, and the one your staff will feel the effects of.
🏢 Site Survey & Planning - The Plan for small and mid-sized teams
🔹Roll the second login check out to a small pilot group first, keep one emergency administrator account outside the policy, and only then extend it to the rest of the company.
🔹Tell staff in writing, the day before, that they will be asked to sign in once more and approve a prompt on their phone; the support calls you avoid by sending that one message are considerable.
🔹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.
⚙️ SYSTEM EVALUATION & CHECKLIST
Turnkey Microsoft 365 Licences, Setup & Email Migration Metrics Checklist near Michael Nagar
🛠️ Workflow Setup
Your company tenant is created and the area verified, which means adding a record at the registrar to prove the name is yours before anything else moves.
⚠️ Pitfalls to Avoid
Dumping every folder from the old server into one shared library where everybody sees everything undoes in an afternoon whatever privacy the office used to have.
🔌 Guidelines & Sizing
Export a size report from the old mail server so you know whether you are moving 20 GB or 600 GB, because that number decides how many nights the copy runs.
📈 Upgrade Triggers
The mailbox is full again, and somebody's answer is to delete old mail rather than pay for more space.
🧾 Licence Tiers and What Each One Covers in and around Michael Nagar
Device and login work is what separates Premium from the cheaper plans. Company laptops and handsets are enrolled so they can be wiped remotely, personal phones are set up so only the company data is under our control, and disk encryption and update schedules are applied without anyone having to click through them. The phone prompt at login goes on in stages, with an emergency administrator account kept outside the policy. Old sign-in methods that attackers still target are switched off once we have confirmed nothing legitimate depends on them.
Commercially it is simple. Licences are invoiced in rupees with GST, monthly or annually, through a partner arrangement with Microsoft rather than a credit card on a website. Seat counts can move up and down as staff join, leave or come in for a season, and we review the total ahead of every renewal date rather than on it. Setup and migration work is quoted separately and once, so you can see exactly what is subscription and what is a one-time cost.
🏆 CORE PARAMETER🔹 If a phone is lostWork mail and files wiped from that handset remotely, personal photos left alone

What Microsoft Runs, and What It Leaves to You
Intune handles the hardware. Company laptops and phones are enrolled once and can then be wiped remotely if lost, and on a staff member's personal handset the company mail and files can be removed on their own, leaving photos and personal chats alone. Disk encryption, update schedules and standard settings get applied centrally instead of being configured machine by machine.
Buying through a Cloud Solution Provider changes the commercial side, not the software. Microtech Solutions sells the identical Microsoft subscriptions with a rupee invoice, GST input, flexible seat counts and an engineering team that sets the tenant up, moves your mail and answers the phone afterwards. The same team handles licensing, migration and ongoing administration for companies across the country.

CLEAR ADVANTAGES IN ONE LIST
COSTS BEYOND THE QUOTE - THE SHORT LIST
✓Sign-ins from an unknown laptop in another country can be blocked while your office carries on as normal (conditional access).
—Business Premium expects Windows 10 or 11 Pro; a Home edition machine will not accept the management policies.
✓Somebody forgetting their password at 8am can reset it themselves instead of ringing around for help (self-service reset).
—PST files scattered across staff desktops must be hunted down and imported, and nobody ever knows how many exist.
✓A new laptop can be handed over still in its box and set itself up on first switch-on (Windows Autopilot).
—Licences are a recurring cost per person, monthly or yearly - stop paying and the mailbox stops working.
✓No more pen drives and no more guessing which copy is the latest - department files in one place, 1 TB of personal space each (OneDrive and SharePoint).
—Scanners and accounting software that send mail need a relay connector configured, otherwise those alerts stop silently.
✓Two people editing the same document merge their changes instead of creating final_final_v3.xlsx.
—Outlook 2013 and older will not connect, so a few desktops need the newer version installed before the move.
💡 Engineering Fact: Mail from your company can land in a customer's spam folder for one dull reason: the receiving server has no list of which machines are allowed to send in your name. That list is a single line in your area settings (an SPF record).

📖 Engineer Notes From Real Installations around Michael Nagar
When I turn on a second login check, the first thing I do is set aside one administrator account that is exempt and whose password lives in a sealed envelope. Locking yourself out of your own tenant is not a theoretical risk; it has happened to companies in Kolkata when the only admin replaced his phone mid-rollout. I also push people to the approval prompt in the authenticator app rather than an SMS code, because a code sent to a number can be intercepted at the network. Everything else - the pilot group, the warning email - is just courtesy to your own staff.
An on-premise mail server gives you complete control and no monthly bill, which is a real argument. It also gives you a machine that needs power backup, an operating system to patch, a backup someone must check and a person to restart it at eleven on a Sunday night. If your internet is genuinely unreliable and your mail is entirely internal, keeping it can still make sense; for most offices the maths stopped working years ago.
Microsoft 365 versus Google Workspace is the comparison we are asked for most, and Google is a good product - we will say so. Companies whose people live in Sheets and Docs, or who have never used desktop Office, often stay happier there. Microsoft pulls ahead when your accounts team runs heavy Excel files, when you want the installed applications rather than browser versions, or when you need device management and Office in one subscription rather than two.
💡 Engineering Fact: Your tenant is your own private space inside Microsoft's cloud, and your area belongs to you whoever set it up. If a former vendor is sitting on the admin account, control can be recovered by proving you own the area.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What exactly do you change inside the tenant to lock it down?
The short answer: every account asked for the phone as well as the password, the number of full administrator accounts cut down to two, and the old login methods that bypass that second step switched off. Beyond that we set rules about where logins are accepted from, tighten the anti-phishing settings, and turn on the audit log so there is a record when something looks wrong. Microsoft scores your account against its own recommendations, and we work down that list with you, explaining which items are worth the friction and which are not. Some of this does mildly annoy staff, and that is the trade we would rather discuss with you than spring on you.
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. Which plan do we actually need - Basic, Standard or Premium?
It comes down to two questions: does the person need Word and Excel installed on their machine, and how much control do you want over their device and their login. Business Basic covers company email, Teams and browser versions of the apps, which suits a shop floor or a sales team that lives on a phone. Business Standard adds the installed desktop apps that accounting and admin staff really do need. Business Premium adds the security layer on top, including full control of company laptops and tighter rules about where people may sign in from, and it costs noticeably more per person every month, so it is worth assigning it deliberately rather than to everybody by default.
Q. Who fixes it if something breaks after the setup is done?
We do, and you reach a named engineer at our Kolkata desk rather than a ticket queue in another time zone. Every setup includes a settling-in period where we stay close, because the first week is when an odd calendar permission or a stubborn phone profile shows up. After that, most clients around Kolkata keep a monthly support arrangement covering joiners, leavers, licence changes and everyday Outlook and Teams trouble, and that is a recurring fee rather than free aftercare, which we say plainly before you sign. If you prefer to run day-to-day admin in-house, we hand over the admin accounts and written notes and stay available for the difficult ones.
Q. What happens to an employee's mailbox after they resign - do we keep paying for it?
Not if it is handled properly. We block the login, sign the account out of every device it was signed into, and turn the mailbox into a shared mailbox, which keeps every old message searchable without a paid licence attached to it. Their manager or replacement can then be given access to answer whatever still arrives at that address. Two limits are worth knowing: a shared mailbox has a size ceiling, and if the account must be preserved for a legal case or an audit hold, it does have to stay licensed, which is a genuine ongoing cost you should decide on rather than discover.
💡 Engineering Fact: accounts@ and sales@ do not need paid licences of their own, as long as each stays under 50GB and the people reading it are licensed. Firms routinely pay for four or five of these without ever realising it.

What else we look after for offices in and around Michael Nagar
