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 Sargasan 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.
📍 Microsoft Deployment, Migration and Handover across Gandhinagar
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 Gandhinagar come to us for exactly that, usually after it has already happened once.
💡 The Case for Doing It Properly Once across Gandhinagar
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 Gandhinagar 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 Gandhinagar 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 Gandhinagar 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
Admin credentials belong to you, not to us. At handover the global admin account, the recovery details and the emergency account are written down and passed to a director, in a sealed envelope or a password manager entry, whichever you prefer. If you later change partners, nothing has to be prised out of anyone's hands.
What a support arrangement with us usually covers:
▪Exchange Online Migration from cPanel, Zimbra or Google Workspace
▪Moving Old Email with Folders and Contacts Intact
▪Single Sign-On and Second-Check Login (Entra ID, MFA)
▪Shared Drive Setup on SharePoint and OneDrive
*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: 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).

📦 Full Range with Honest Comparisons near Sargasan
Read through the mailbox sizes, storage limits and security features before you decide:
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).
🔹 SETUP TIME
A fresh tenant with your area verified is usually usable within a working day, with the old mail moving across in parallel.
🔹 FILE STORAGE
1TB of personal cloud space each, team libraries alongside it, and old versions kept so an accidental overwrite is not fatal.
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.
🔹 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.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
CA firms, clinics, exporters, and any office where staff carry customer data around on a laptop.
🔹 EVERYTHING IN STANDARD
The same installed apps, 50GB mailboxes, cloud drive and Teams - nothing is traded away to get the security.
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.
🔹 WHAT IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
No Teams, no OneDrive, no SharePoint, no Office installs. Email and calendar, full stop.
🔹 SHARED ADDRESSES
Accounts@ and sales@ sit beside the paid mailboxes without needing licences of their own.
🔹 PHONE ACCESS
The native mail app on Android and iPhone syncs without installing anything extra (Exchange ActiveSync).
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.
🔹 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.
🔹 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.
🔹 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.
🔹 CALL REPORTING
Who rang, who missed it, how long people waited - the numbers a sales head actually asks about on Monday.
🔹 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).
🔹 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.
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).
🔹 RULES YOU CAN SET
Screen lock and PIN compulsory, copying out of work apps blocked, and company mail refused on a rooted or jailbroken phone.
🔹 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).
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 IT DOESN'T INCLUDE
There is no mailbox here. Email either stays where it is or gets bought as a separate Exchange Online plan.
🔹 WHAT YOU GET
The full installed apps on up to five computers per person, updating themselves quietly, with 1TB of personal cloud storage each.
🔹 LICENCE CHECKS
Each install phones home periodically, so a laptop kept offline for weeks will ask its user to sign in again.
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.
🔹 FIRST MONTH
We start with a health check of the tenant as it stands, so nothing inherited from the last vendor stays quietly broken.
🔹 WHO IT'S FOR
Firms with no in-house IT person, and firms whose IT person should not be spending Monday morning resetting passwords.
🔹 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).

🏢 Site Survey & Planning - A Timeline around Sargasan
🔹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 Sargasan
🛠️ 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.

BENEFITS YOU WILL NOTICE - THE HIGHLIGHTS
COMMON COMPLAINTS - THE HONEST VERSION
✓One username opens everything, and switching a leaver off takes a single click (Microsoft Entra ID).
—Standard mailboxes stop at 50 GB and the archive is not unlimited on the lower plans; heavy users do hit the ceiling.
✓Meetings, department chat and file sharing sit in one place, which is how WhatsApp finally gets retired (Teams).
—If both the admin credentials and the emergency account are lost, getting control back from Microsoft is slow and painful.
✓Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint install properly on up to five devices per person, not just in a browser.
—A 60 GB mailbox on an ordinary office line takes days to copy, so the big accounts are started well before cutover night.
✓The finance objection first - a dollar receipt off a website cannot be claimed, so the same licences come invoiced in rupees with GST, the count moving as you hire.
—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).
—Outlook 2013 and older will not connect, so a few desktops need the newer version installed before the move.
💡 Engineering Fact: Take the licence off a user and a clock starts. Mailbox and OneDrive contents are held for about a month, then removed. Pull the files out before you free the seat, not after.

📝 Common Failures and How We Fix Them across Gandhinagar
Before I switch off the old sign-in methods, I walk the building. In the offices I visit around Sargasan 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.
Doing the migration in-house is entirely possible if you have somebody patient and a quiet weekend. Where it usually comes apart is the parts that are invisible until they fail: the time-to-live on the records, the record that reconfigures phones by itself, the devices still sending mail through old methods. Bringing somebody in mostly buys you the list of things you would not have known to check.
The free tier of Teams, or running the company on WhatsApp, costs nothing and everyone already has it. It also means company files sit on personal handsets, a departing employee walks out with the group history, and there is no way to control who is in a conversation. The moment your files or your customer lists are in those chats, the free option has become the expensive one.
💡 Engineering Fact: The invoice fraud that hits exporters and traders rarely involves any hacking. Someone registers a area one letter off yours, watches the thread, then sends your buyer fresh bank details at exactly the right moment. Area records plus a phone call to confirm account changes end it.
📊 What the Numbers Mean for Your Office for offices in Sargasan
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.

Built-In Protection against Fake Invoices and Booby-Trapped Attachments
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.

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. 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.
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. 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.
💡 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.
