Somebody leaves a phone in an auto. Two hours later you remember it had company mail, a folder of client files and the office group on it, and there is nothing you can do. With Business Premium and device enrolment, Microtech Solutions can wipe only the work data off that handset from a browser and leave the owner's own photos alone. We set this up on every staff phone during the rollout, including field teams working across Kolkata, so a lost handset becomes a five-minute job rather than a bad week.
💼 From Quotation to Go-Live with Microsoft in Rajarhat
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.
A quotation you sent on Tuesday turns up in the customer's spam folder on Friday, by which time the order has gone somewhere else. Nine times out of ten the mail itself was fine and the area simply had nothing telling the receiving server it was genuine. Setting up Microsoft 365 properly means those records get written and tested before anyone switches over (SPF, DKIM and DMARC). Microtech Solutions does that as part of every tenant we build for businesses around Rajarhat.
🤝 What You Get That Cheaper Options Skip in Rajarhat
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.
Software nobody was shown how to use gets quietly ignored, and six months later the team is back on WhatsApp. After go-live we sit with your staff for an hour or two: where files live now, how to open a shared calendar, what that new prompt on their phone means. The people who resist hardest are usually the ones who have used the same folder since 2011, and they come round the first time search finds something in two seconds. For rollouts around Rajarhat the walkthrough is part of the job, not an upsell.
Phones, Patient Records and Remote Wipe at a Clinic
A school in Kolkata running two hundred staff on free personal webmail could not stop parents receiving circulars from addresses that looked nothing like the school. Over one vacation week we created named accounts on the school's own area, moved the mail teachers wanted to keep, and left the old accounts readable for a month while everyone adjusted. Class groups and a shared calendar replaced the parallel WhatsApp groups the office had been maintaining by hand. The principal's office now sends one circular from one address that parents recognise.
🛡️ PLANNING, ROLLBACK AND RISK CONTROL
The Audit We Run First, and Why It Matters
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 Rajarhat, fixing Outlook profiles and phones one person at a time.
Pick the pieces you need - the list below is what we do:
▪Shared Drive Setup on SharePoint and OneDrive
▪Third-Party Mailbox Backup for Microsoft 365
▪Licence Supply, Renewals and GST Invoicing in Rupees
▪Teams Rollout and Getting People Off WhatsApp
*Advisory: Response times in a support agreement are ours to meet; Microsoft publishes its own service commitments separately.*
💡 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).
🔐 LOGIN SECURITY, STAGED
Want a login check on everyone's phone without a Monday full of locked-out staff across Rajarhat? We roll it out in stages, warn people first, and keep an emergency account aside.
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.
🔹 DESKTOP OFFICE APPS
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and OneNote on up to five computers per person, along with five tablets and five phones.
🔹 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).
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Desk staff who live in Outlook and Excel all day - accounts, sales, admin and management.
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.
🔹 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).
🔹 DEVICE CONTROL
Company laptops and phones are enrolled, disks are encrypted by default, and a missing device can be cleared remotely (Intune and BitLocker).
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).
🔹 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.
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.
🔹 PERMISSIONS
Salary and tender folders lock down to named people, and sharing outside the company can be switched off or limited to approved domains.
🔹 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.
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).
🔹 PHONE FIRST
Staff with no company laptop still get their mail, the staff directory and Teams on a personal Android handset.
🔹 DESKTOP OFFICE APPS
Not included. Files open and edit in a browser tab or the mobile apps, which covers reading, approving and light changes.
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.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
A real phone number inside Teams, with hold, transfer, ring groups, a menu for callers and voicemail dropped into the inbox (Teams Phone).
🔹 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.
🔹 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.
🔹 HOW IT'S LICENSED
Bundled inside Business Premium, or bought on its own by firms that only want the device side (Intune Plan 1).
🔹 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.
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.
🔹 ROLLOUT
Installs can be pushed to machines over the network rather than walking desk to desk, once the package and update channel are agreed.
🔹 BILLING
Per named person, not per machine. One employee with a desktop, a laptop and a home PC still needs a single seat.
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.
🔹 JOINERS AND LEAVERS
New staff get a mailbox, the right licence and the right folder access on day one; leavers are cut off within the hour and their mailbox converted rather than binned.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with no in-house IT person, and firms whose IT person should not be spending Monday morning resetting passwords.
🔹 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.

🗒️ Licence Tiers and What Each One Covers in Rajarhat
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🔹 Moving old email acrossFull history, folders and contacts brought over from Google Workspace, Zimbra, Rediff, cPanel or an in-house server
🔹 If a phone is lostWork mail and files wiped from that handset remotely, personal photos left alone
🔹 Two-step sign-inA prompt or code on the phone, so a password picked off a fake login page is not enough by itself
🔹 Mailbox size50GB per person on most plans, 100GB plus an expanding archive on the larger email plan
🔹 Billed asPer user, monthly or yearly, in rupees on a GST invoice from {COMPANY}
🔹 Fake invoices and booby-trapped attachmentsOpened in a sealed test area before they reach the inbox, on the Premium plan
🔹 Meetings and callingVideo meetings for up to 300 people; desk-phone numbers through Teams as an add-on
Three Responsibilities: Microsoft's, Yours and Ours
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.

WHAT OWNERS LIKE SUMMED UP
COMPROMISES TO ACCEPT - BEFORE YOU SIGN
✓Somebody forgetting their password at 8am can reset it themselves instead of ringing around for help (self-service reset).
—Microsoft does not keep a deleted mailbox forever; past the retention window it is gone, so backup is a separate product you buy on top.
✓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).
—Licences are a recurring cost per person, monthly or yearly - stop paying and the mailbox stops working.
✓Your mail stops landing in customers' spam folders once the area records are written correctly (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).
—Guest sharing in Teams and SharePoint starts open and has to be tightened deliberately, or documents wander off quietly.
✓A new laptop can be handed over still in its box and set itself up on first switch-on (Windows Autopilot).
—PST files scattered across staff desktops must be hunted down and imported, and nobody ever knows how many exist.
✓Ransomware and virus detection extend to the laptops themselves, not just to what arrives by mail (Defender for Business).
—Office apps check in with Microsoft roughly once a month; a machine kept permanently offline eventually goes read-only.
💡 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.

Turnkey Microsoft 365 Licences, Setup & Email Migration Metrics Checklist near Rajarhat
🛠️ Workflow Setup
We finish with a walkthrough for staff and a written handover of the admin account, and our Kolkata desk stays reachable through the settling-in weeks.
⚠️ Pitfalls to Avoid
Skipping the half-hour walkthrough with staff saves nothing, because the calls you avoid on Friday all arrive together on Monday.
🔌 Guidelines & Sizing
Turn generic addresses into shared mailboxes at the planning stage - accounts, dispatch, careers, info - instead of buying a paid user for each of them.
📈 Upgrade Triggers
The auditor asks how long you keep email and who can read it, and there is no honest answer to give.
👀 Practical Findings After a Year in Service in Rajarhat
Migration order is not a matter of taste. Check the area, create the accounts, seed the historical mail while everything still flows to the old system, then switch the mail routing, then run one final pass to pick up whatever arrived during the changeover. Skip the seeding and you are copying years of mail during the window when people want to work. Do the final pass badly and a day's correspondence quietly vanishes.
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.
🛠️ Admin Roles, the Emergency Account and Who Holds the Keys
Companies near Rajarhat usually want to know what actually happens on the day, so here is the plan written down rather than described over a phone call.
✅ Access and Passwords - What We Do in and around Rajarhat
🔹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 Rajarhat - 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.
Frequently Asked Questions
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.
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. How do you handle the huge PST archive files sitting on people's laptops?
We collect them and load them into online archive mailboxes, so the mail becomes searchable from any device instead of being stranded on one machine. PST files are the most fragile part of any old email setup: they corrupt, they get copied onto pen drives, and they vanish along with the laptop. Loading years of archive eats time and bandwidth, so we normally run it after cutover rather than letting it hold up the go-live date. Bear in mind that very large archives need a higher licence level, which occasionally changes what we recommend for two or three long-serving staff.
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: The cloud is not a backup. Microsoft protects the service against its own failures; it does not protect you from a staff member who deletes a folder in March and asks for it back in October.
