The call that starts most of these jobs sounds the same. A customer says they never received the quotation, and it has been sitting in their spam folder for three days. Nine times out of ten the area has no proper sender records, so mail servers treat anything from you as suspicious and quietly bin it, and when we move a business in Paldi onto Microsoft 365 that is the first thing we fix. Microtech Solutions then tests the mail against real outside mailboxes before we call the job finished.
📍 Onsite Installation and Staff Training for Microsoft across Ahmedabad
Twenty people share one info@ login, everybody reads everything, and nobody can say who replied to the enquiry that came in at nine. Give each person their own account and turn the general address into a shared mailbox and the guessing stops, at no extra licence cost. Sent items sit in one place, replies carry a name, and a leaver's access can be removed without twenty people learning a new password. It is usually the first thing we fix.
Your senior salesman resigns, takes his handset with him, and three weeks later a customer asks about the mail he sent in April. On a personal webmail account that thread has simply gone. Inside a company tenant the mailbox stays yours - it can be converted to a shared mailbox, handed to a colleague, or held for an audit without paying for a licence forever. Companies across Ahmedabad come to us for exactly that, usually after it has already happened once.
💡 The Case for Doing It Properly Once across Ahmedabad
It is nine at night, the director's phone has stopped pulling mail, and the help page suggests raising a ticket. Buying your licences through a partner in Ahmedabad means the person who built the tenant is the person who picks up. We hold the admin access, we know why each setting is there, and nobody needs a fifteen-minute explanation before work can start. That is most of what people mean when they say they want local support.
Asking staff for a code on the phone as well as the password is the most useful security change a small company can make, and also the one most likely to ruin a Monday. So we stage it - a pilot group first, staff told in advance about the one-time prompt on their phones, an emergency admin account kept aside, then everyone else (multi-factor authentication). Nobody in your Ahmedabad office gets locked out of their own mail on a working day. The point of the exercise is simple: knowing the password is no longer enough.
Moving a Company off Free Webmail to Proper Company Email
A car dealership with three showrooms across Ahmedabad had one email password shared by everyone on the sales floor, printed on a slip stuck to the counter. Every salesperson now has their own account, enquiries land in a shared sales mailbox that the whole floor can work from, and each reply carries a name. When a salesman left mid-quarter, his access was gone the same afternoon and his open enquiries stayed with the branch. The general manager can finally answer the question of who followed up on which enquiry.
🛡️ HOW WE ACTUALLY RUN A MIGRATION
What We Hand Over When the Job Is Finished
Before anything moves, we list every mailbox, alias, distribution list and device that touches mail in your office in Paldi. That audit is dull work, and it is exactly where the surprises get caught: the forgotten sales address, the scanner that mails PDFs, the director's phone nobody ever set up. Only once that list is agreed do we put a date on the wall.
Chargeable services available on site and remotely across Ahmedabad:
▪Licence Supply, Renewals and GST Invoicing in Rupees
▪Microsoft Defender for Business Rollout
▪Moving Old Email with Folders and Contacts Intact
▪Fixing Mail That Lands in Spam (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
*Note: The setup, migration and support work described here is chargeable, and comes from us as an independent partner - it is not Microsoft's own support line.*
💡 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.
📋 LICENCE COUNT REVIEW
Not sure what you are paying for? Send us your current licence list and we will tell you plainly which people in Paldi are on the wrong plan and which seats can go entirely.
Check the storage numbers, archive choices and sharing controls before settling on a plan:
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.
🔹 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).
🔹 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.
🔹 DEVICE CONTROL
Company laptops and phones are enrolled, disks are encrypted by default, and a missing device can be cleared remotely (Intune and BitLocker).
🔹 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).
🔹 BILLING
Per user per month. Plenty of clients keep general staff on Standard and lift only directors, accounts and IT up to Premium.
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).
🔹 SETUP TIME
Area checks and the mail record changeover usually happen in one evening, followed by a settling day while DNS spreads.
🔹 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.
🔹 TRAINING
A short hands-on session per department, because the migration that fails is the one where staff quietly go back to emailing attachments.
🔹 FOLDER STRUCTURE
Separate libraries for Accounts, HR, Sales, Projects and Management instead of one enormous Shared folder everybody tips things into.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
No installed desktop apps, no attachment sandboxing and no management of Windows laptops - though the free mobile controls here will still remove company data from an enrolled phone, or reset it entirely (Basic Mobility and Security).
🔹 SETUP TIME
Adding Basic users to a tenant whose area is already verified is a same-hour job.
🔹 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.
🔹 BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Call quality is an internet question, not a Microsoft one. We test the office link and the backup line around Paldi before anyone signs anything.
🔹 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.
🔹 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).
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.
🔹 HOW IT'S LICENSED
Bundled inside Business Premium, or bought on its own by firms that only want the device side (Intune Plan 1).
🔹 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).
🔹 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.
🔹 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.
🔹 LICENCE CHECKS
Each install phones home periodically, so a laptop kept offline for weeks will ask its user to sign in again.
🔹 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).
🔹 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.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with no in-house IT person, and firms whose IT person should not be spending Monday morning resetting passwords.

🛠️ Workflow Setup
The final switch happens out of hours, a Saturday night or a Sunday morning, with the routing changed and a live test mail sent before we stop for the night.
⚠️ Pitfalls to Avoid
Switching the area's anti-forgery policy to full reject on day one will bounce your own newsletters and your accounting software; publish it loose, read the reports, then tighten.
🔌 Guidelines & Sizing
Budget the renewal now rather than next year, since licences are an annual line item like insurance and the count usually creeps upward as you hire.
📈 Upgrade Triggers
Someone in accounts receives a mail that appears to come from the director, asking for an urgent transfer.
📝 Field Testing and What It Told Us across Ahmedabad
Before I switch off the old sign-in methods, I walk the building. In the offices I visit around Paldi there is always a copier that scans to email using a password from 2016, an alert from Tally, a CCTV recorder and a website form, and every one of them will break silently the moment those methods are blocked. I list them, move each to a proper modern method or a permitted route, and only then close the door. Blocking them matters - that is where password-guessing attacks come in - but blocking them blind is how you lose a fortnight of goodwill.
The mailboxes your web hosting company throws in with the website are cheap and they do work. What they usually do not give you is a mailbox large enough to hold years of mail, proper calendar sharing, or an address book that everyone sees. They also share a mail server with hundreds of other customers, so if one of them sends spam your quotations get caught up in the same blacklist.
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.
💡 Engineering Fact: A file deleted from the shared drive is not gone. It sits in the recycle bin for roughly three months, and an overwritten file can be rolled back to how it looked yesterday from its version history.
🛠️ Setting Up the Tenant: What Gets Done, and in What Order
Before a single mailbox moves for an office in Paldi, the checks below get ticked off one by one; skipping them is how mail quietly disappears.
🧰 Installation & Setup Step by Step for growing offices
🔹Schedule the actual switch for a Friday evening or the start of a long weekend in Paldi - 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.
🔹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.

FEWER HEADACHES - THE HIGHLIGHTS
WHERE IT FALLS SHORT - THE HONEST VERSION
✓Attachments from people you have never dealt with get opened in a safe box first, and links are re-checked at the moment somebody clicks (Safe Links and Safe Attachments).
—Changing MX and DNS records needs login access to the area registrar, often held by a web designer nobody has spoken to in years.
✓Most tenants we audit are paying full price for three generic addresses that should be costing nothing at all (shared mailboxes).
—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.
✓Your mail stops landing in customers' spam folders once the area records are written correctly (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).
—Licences are a recurring cost per person, monthly or yearly - stop paying and the mailbox stops working.
✓A new laptop can be handed over still in its box and set itself up on first switch-on (Windows Autopilot).
—DMARC pushed straight to reject will bounce your own newsletters and Tally-generated invoices; it needs a watching period first.
✓Nobody starts the Monday staring at an empty inbox: the folder tree people built over a decade arrives exactly as they left it.
—Scanners and accounting software that send mail need a relay connector configured, otherwise those alerts stop silently.
💡 Engineering Fact: During a mail move the internet learns your new destination only as fast as your DNS allows. Lower the time-to-live value a day early and the switch takes minutes instead of dragging on all night (MX record TTL).

📊 Feature List and Technical Detail for offices in Paldi
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 Paldi get the same running order at eight seats as at two hundred.
The plan tiers matter more than most buyers are told. Business Basic gives mail, the shared drive and Teams with the apps in a browser; Standard adds Word, Excel and Outlook installed on the machine; Premium adds the security and device controls on top of that. Different people in the same company usually need different ones, and you can mix them freely on one bill. We recommend the mix in writing before anything is ordered so you can see the reasoning.

Licensing Rules Microsoft Enforces That Surprise First-Time Buyers
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.
Exchange Online is the mail half, and it is the reason most companies move. Each user gets a large mailbox that keeps in step across a laptop, a phone and a browser, so a message read on the way home is already read when you sit down. Shared team calendars, one company address book and generic addresses like info@ or accounts@ that several staff work from are all part of it, and the general addresses need no licence of their own.
✉️ SUPPORT DESK

Q. Can our Tally software and the office printer still send emails after the move?
Yes, but every one of them needs reconfiguring, and this is the step most businesses forget until the first invoice fails to leave the building. Anything that sends mail on its own, whether it is Tally, the scan-to-email button on the copier, an ERP mailing buy orders or the website enquiry form, has to be pointed at the new service with proper credentials or approved as a legitimate sender for your area. We write down every such device and application before cutover, then test each one the same evening. Older printers that only support outdated, unencrypted sending sometimes need a firmware update or a small relay arrangement.
Q. How long does the changeover take, and will email stop working during it?
For an office of ten to fifty people, plan on about a week, of which the actual switchover is one evening. Most of that week is quiet background copying while everyone carries on using the old email exactly as before. On cutover night we point your area at Microsoft, and new mail starts arriving within minutes, although a handful of senders on slow networks can take a few hours to notice the change. Expect a few small irritations the next morning, such as a phone asking for a password again or a signature to be re-added, which is why an engineer stays reachable through that first working day.
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. 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. 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 strong password stops guessing. It does nothing about the employee who typed it into a convincing fake login page on Tuesday. The prompt on the phone is what makes a stolen password worthless (MFA).
