TL;DR — Quick overview

Microsoft 365 helps your team work faster and more securely,  whether you are in the office or hybrid. If you are in Milton Keynes or Buckinghamshire, our certified engineers plan your move, secure your environment and keep everything running smoothly day‑to‑day.

AZTech handles the heavy lifting: migration, licence optimisation, security hardening and ongoing management across Exchange Online, SharePoint/OneDrive and Microsoft Teams (including Teams Phone). You get clear SLAs, transparent reporting and a free IT assessment to confirm scope, timelines and costs.

  • Get more done, faster: Seamless migration across Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams (incl. Teams Phone) with zero data loss and minimal downtime.

  • Reduce risk and stay compliant: We implement MFA, Conditional Access, Intune baselines, Defender for Business, DLP and encryption aligned to Microsoft best practice.

  • Lower monthly costs: Licence optimisation across Business Premium, E3 and E5; remove unused seats and right‑size add‑ons without weakening security

How quickly can you migrate us to Microsoft 365?

Timelines vary by scope, data volume and approach, but here’s a practical guide:

  • 25–100 users: typically 3–7 business days from cut‑over, plus 3–5 days for assessment, pilot and scheduling. After‑hours cut‑overs available to minimise disruption.

  • 100–500 users: typically 2–4 weeks using staged or hybrid migration in 2–3 waves. Includes mailbox moves, SharePoint/OneDrive content migration and light change management.

  • 500+ users: typically 4–12 weeks with phased rollouts, pilot groups, detailed change management and training. Often a hybrid approach with parallel run and governance updates.

What can extend timelines: large mailbox sizes and file data (TBs), coexistence or tenant‑to‑tenant scenarios, identity and device readiness (Microsoft Entra ID/Intune), security/compliance requirements (Conditional Access, DLP, retention), third‑party integrations and Microsoft service throttling. We confirm a detailed plan and wave schedule after a free assessment.

How do you keep our tenant secure?

We apply a baseline of MFA, Conditional Access, Intune device compliance, Defender for Business, DLP and encryption, then review quarterly against Microsoft Secure Score targets. You receive regular security posture and incident response reporting.

How do you minimise downtime during migration?

We run a pilot, schedule after‑hours cut‑overs, throttle mailbox moves, and migrate file data in waves. Users get clear comms and short training. Rollback plans and mailbox/SharePoint integrity checks ensure continuity.

FAQ's

Do you handle Intune deployments and device management?
Yes,  end‑to‑end Microsoft Intune: discovery, enrolment (incl. Windows Autopilot), compliance policies (BitLocker/FileVault, OS baselines, firewall), app packaging (Win32/LOB/Office), Conditional Access integration and reporting. Targets: 100% device enrolment and compliance within 10–20 business days for 50–250 devices; MTTR for device issues ≤1 business day. Platforms: Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. On‑site and remote delivery in Milton Keynes and across Buckinghamshire.
What SharePoint development and migration services do you offer?
Information architecture and hub sites, modern site builds, SPFx/Power Apps customisation, metadata/search, governance/permissions, and content migration from file servers, Google Drive or legacy SharePoint. Typical timelines: 2–6 weeks for SME intranets, with read‑only cut‑over to prevent data loss. Outcomes: improved findability, clean permissions and a governance pack with runbooks and user training.
Can you build Power Apps and Power Automate solutions with proper governance?
Yes ,  we design, build and govern Power Apps/Power Automate using Dataverse where appropriate, with environment strategy (Dev/Test/Prod), DLP connector policies, role‑based security and solution‑based ALM. Deliverables include documentation, monitoring and cost controls. Outcomes: 4–8 week delivery for common line‑of‑business apps, 30–60% cycle‑time reduction, and a Centre of Excellence‑aligned model to prevent sprawl.
How do you prepare and configure Copilot for Microsoft 365 safely?

We run a Copilot readiness assessment: fix oversharing in SharePoint/Teams/OneDrive, implement sensitivity labels and retention, enforce Conditional Access, and boost Secure Score. We add Microsoft Purview DLP/Information Protection where needed, then pilot with a defined cohort and phased rollout. Goal: unlock Copilot value without exposing sensitive data. Typical pilot: 2–4 weeks; broader rollout by department thereafter.

Do you implement Microsoft Purview for compliance and data protection?
Yes , we deploy Microsoft Purview: Information Protection sensitivity labels, DLP (Microsoft 365 and endpoints), retention/records, Insider Risk Management, eDiscovery (Standard/Premium) and Audit. Policies are mapped to your controls (e.g., ISO 27001, FCA). Targets: 100% label availability for users, priority DLP live within 10 business days, and measurable improvements in Secure Score and Compliance Manager.
