Not everybody in your company needs the same licence, and buying the top tier for all of them is the easiest way to waste money here. A supervisor who checks mail on a browser twice a day does not need what your finance head needs on a company laptop. We go through the staff list with you and mark who wants installed Office apps, who needs the security and device controls, and who genuinely only needs webmail. Businesses in Kolkata usually find the monthly total drops before the migration has even started.
🧭 Microsoft Microsoft 365 Licences, Setup & Email Migration Supply, Setup and Support at multi-branch offices
A new joiner starts on Monday and is still without email on Wednesday because nobody is quite sure who creates accounts. When a tenant is built with proper groups and roles, adding a person takes five minutes and mail, files, Teams and folder access all arrive together. Removing somebody is just as quick, which matters more than most owners expect until the day it does. Offices near New Town tend to notice this change before they notice anything else.
Licences bought on a director's credit card arrive with a dollar receipt, no GST input and a support page in another time zone. Buying the same subscriptions through a local partner gets you a rupee invoice, seats you can add or drop as headcount moves, and a number a person answers (Cloud Solution Provider). The software is identical, because it is Microsoft's either way - the billing and the help are not. Microtech Solutions bills in INR and sets up what it sells.
🔑 Why Businesses Pick Microsoft Microsoft 365 Licences, Setup & Email Migration when budgets are tight
A tenant is not something you build once and walk away from - people join, Microsoft changes a default, a policy quietly starts blocking something that worked last month. We stay on afterwards: adding and removing users, watching the security dashboard, reviewing licence counts before the renewal date rather than on it. You deal with someone who already knows your setup instead of explaining it again to a new ticket. Plenty of businesses keep us on for that reason alone.
The week of a mail move is the week everyone remembers, so we plan it around your business rather than ours. Mail routing is switched after hours, both the old and new systems carry mail for a while, and nothing is deleted from the old platform for a fortnight. If something looks wrong on Monday morning there is a way back, which is the part rushed migrations always skip. Microtech Solutions has done enough of these to know where mail actually goes missing.
Files Off WhatsApp and into a Shared Drive for Agencies near New Town
A garment exporter with a unit near New Town and about sixty staff discovered that buyers overseas were receiving payment instructions from an address one letter different from theirs. We took over the area records, published exactly which servers may send on their behalf, watched the reports for two weeks and then moved the policy to reject, so forged mail now fails at the receiving end. Internal alerts from their shipping software were found and fixed during that watching period rather than after. Their finance head no longer starts every payment call by asking the buyer to read the sender address aloud.
🛡️ WHO HOLDS THE KEYS AFTER GO-LIVE
How a Migration Is Planned Before Anyone Touches Your Mail
Every tenant we build gets the same plain baseline: a phone prompt on top of the password, the ancient mail protocols switched off, sensible sharing limits, and a separate emergency admin account. None of it is exotic and all of it is written down. You keep that document, so whoever looks after your systems next is not left guessing.
The work we take on, once the plan is agreed:
▪Third-Party Mailbox Backup for Microsoft 365
▪Microsoft Defender for Business Rollout
▪Company Phone and Laptop Controls with Intune
▪Single Sign-On and Second-Check Login (Entra ID, MFA)
*Note: We act as an independent supplier and integrator. Product names and trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.*
💡 Engineering Fact: A mailbox stores mail and needs a licence. An alias is just a second address into the same mailbox and costs nothing. A distribution list stores nothing at all - it copies incoming mail to a group. Picking the wrong one is how firms overpay for years.
📱 PHONES AND LAPTOPS
What happens when a staff handset with company mail on it goes missing in New Town? Enrolment now means a wipe from a browser later, with personal photos and chats untouched.
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.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
Full management of Windows laptops, app protection policies and BitLocker key backup (Intune), plus attachment sandboxing and sign-in restriction rules - all of that sits in the Premium plan. Enrolled phones can still be wiped from here using the free mobile controls built into this plan (Basic Mobility and Security).
🔹 MEETINGS
Video calls for up to 300 people, recordings, and outside guests who can join without any Microsoft account of their own.
🔹 DESKTOP OFFICE APPS
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote on up to five computers per person, along with five tablets and five phones.
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.
🔹 SECURITY
Attachments are opened in a sealed test area and links are re-checked at the moment somebody clicks, so a fake invoice PDF does not get its first click (Defender for Business).
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
CA firms, clinics, exporters, and any office where staff carry customer data around on a laptop.
🔹 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.
🔹 KEEPING MAIL FOR AUDITS
Plan 2 can freeze a mailbox so nothing is ever permanently deleted, and lets you search across mailboxes when a dispute or an audit lands (litigation hold and eDiscovery).
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
No Teams, no OneDrive, no SharePoint, no Office installs. Email and calendar, full stop.
🔹 MAILBOX SIZE
50GB on Plan 1. Plan 2 doubles the main mailbox to 100GB and adds an archive that keeps expanding as it fills up.
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.
🔹 PERMISSIONS
Salary and tender folders lock down to named people, and sharing outside the company can be switched off or limited to approved domains.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Any office in Kolkata where the file server is ageing, the backup is nobody's job, and staff away from the desk cannot reach the data.
🔹 WORKING OFFLINE
Files still appear as a normal drive in File Explorer, keep working when the link drops, and catch up when it returns (OneDrive sync).
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.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Shift supervisors, drivers, warehouse hands, site engineers and trainees who need an inbox and a Teams message, nothing more.
🔹 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.
🔹 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.
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.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
Calling is licensed on top of Business Standard or Premium, and the minutes come from your telecom provider rather than from the licence.
🔹 BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Call quality is an internet question, not a Microsoft one. We test the office link and the backup line around New Town before anyone signs anything.
🔹 BILLING
The Teams side is per user per month; the trunk and the call minutes arrive on the operator's own invoice.
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.
🔹 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).
🔹 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.
🔹 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).
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.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
The full installed apps on up to five computers per person, updating themselves quietly, with 1TB of personal cloud storage each.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
There is no mailbox here. Email either stays where it is or gets bought as a separate Exchange Online plan.
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.
🔹 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.
🔹 SECURITY REVIEW
A standing check of admin accounts, odd sign-in alerts, forwarding rules nobody remembers creating, and how many staff still have no second login check.
🔹 HONESTY ABOUT BACKUP
Microsoft keeps the service running; it does not keep a copy of a folder someone deleted eight months ago. We set retention properly and add separate backup where the risk deserves it.

CLEAR ADVANTAGES - IN PLAIN WORDS
COSTS BEYOND THE QUOTE SPELLED OUT UPFRONT
✓Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint install properly on up to five devices per person, not just in a browser.
—Scanners and accounting software that send mail need a relay connector configured, otherwise those alerts stop silently.
✓Your mail stops landing in customers' spam folders once the area records are written correctly (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).
—If both the admin credentials and the emergency account are lost, getting control back from Microsoft is slow and painful.
✓Ransomware and virus detection extend to the laptops themselves, not just to what arrives by mail (Defender for Business).
—Outlook 2013 and older will not connect, so a few desktops need the newer version installed before the move.
✓An ex-employee's mailbox can be kept readable for audit purposes without paying full price for that seat.
—Guest sharing in Teams and SharePoint starts open and has to be tightened deliberately, or documents wander off quietly.
✓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).
—Encryption on a document does not stop someone photographing the screen or reading the contents down the phone.
💡 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.

🛠️ Enrolling Company Laptops and Staff Phones across Kolkata
Companies near New Town usually want to know what actually happens on the day, so here is the plan written down rather than described over a phone call.
✅ User Training & Handover - The Plan for small and mid-sized teams
🔹Put the sender records in first and in order - publish the permitted senders, then the signing keys, and only then start monitoring before you ever move to enforcement (SPF, then DKIM, then DMARC).
🔹Schedule the actual switch for a Friday evening or the start of a long weekend in New Town - never a Monday, and never the last three days of a month when invoicing is running.
🔹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.
🗒️ Engineer Notes From Real Installations for demanding workloads
Shared mailboxes are the easiest money most companies leave on the table. Every generic address - info@, sales@, careers@, that old address on the printed brochures - can be a shared mailbox with no licence attached, worked from by as many staff as you like. I have taken over tenants where six of those existed as full paid accounts with somebody's password written down. Converting them costs nothing and takes an afternoon.
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: 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.
🧮 Key Figures Every Buyer Should Check for larger offices
Mail reputation is treated as part of the build, not an extra. We publish which servers are allowed to send in your name, add the signing keys, then watch the reports for a couple of weeks before tightening the policy to reject forged mail. Alerts sent by your own accounting software, the office copier and the website contact form are found and included during that watching period. The outcome you notice is straightforward: proposals reach inboxes, and nobody can invoice your customers in your name.
File and collaboration work is planned on paper first. Departments get their own areas with permissions that match how the company actually works, personal working files go to each user's own space, and everything keeps a version history you can roll back through. Teams is set up by department with the files attached to the right conversation instead of scattered across handsets. Where an old file server is involved, path lengths and file names are checked before anything is copied.
🏆 CORE PARAMETER🔹 Two-step sign-inA prompt or code on the phone, so a password picked off a fake login page is not enough by itself
🔹 How long setup takesA small tenant usable in a working day; mail cutover overnight, with a settling day for DNS
🔹 Shared office drive1TB of personal cloud space each, plus department libraries the whole team can reach

🔹 Meetings and callingVideo meetings for up to 300 people; desk-phone numbers through Teams as an add-on

What Microsoft Runs, and What It Leaves to You
Microsoft Teams is where the WhatsApp groups end up. Departments get channels, calls and video meetings run inside the same window, and the file being discussed is attached to the conversation rather than forwarded around handsets. For companies with a plant, a head office and people on the road, it removes a lot of the phone tag that eats a working morning.
Defender for Business, included with the Premium plan, is the protection layer. It checks links inside incoming mail at the moment somebody clicks them, opens unfamiliar attachments away from the machine before they reach the desk, and watches endpoints for the behaviour that precedes a ransomware run. Because it is part of the same subscription, there is no separate antivirus renewal to keep track of.

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.
Q. Can staff use this on their own phones, and can we wipe it if a phone is lost?
Yes to both, with one honest caveat about what wiping means on a personal handset. The device controls in Business Premium keep company mail and files in a managed area on the phone, insist on a screen lock, and let us remove only the company side, leaving the owner's photos, WhatsApp and payment apps completely alone. Staff have to accept the enrolment, so tell them plainly what you can and cannot see, because saying it up front prevents a lot of bad feeling later. On a company-owned laptop or phone we can go further and erase the whole device.
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. 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. Our broadband is slow and drops during the day. Will people still be able to work?
Mostly yes, and the first few days are the real test. Outlook keeps a full copy of each mailbox on the laptop, so staff carry on reading and writing during an outage and everything sends when the line comes back, whereas a Teams call feels every hiccup immediately. The heavy part is the initial download of mailboxes and files, which we schedule overnight or stagger a few users at a time so the office line is not choked during business hours. If the connection drops every day, a second broadband link from a different provider will do more for you than anything we can change in software.
💡 Engineering Fact: A stamp that cannot be forged travels with every message you send, letting the far end confirm the mail really came from you and was not edited on the way (DKIM signing).
