Choose Microsoft 365 around the way you work
Existing Office 365 Business users can review their requirements against current Microsoft 365 business plans. Separate company email, browser collaboration, desktop Office, meetings and device management needs before comparing licences.
- Email and calendars: company domains, user accounts and shared mailboxes.
- Files and collaboration: OneDrive, SharePoint and team sharing permissions.
- Applications and meetings: desktop apps, whether Teams is included, and any additional licences.
Organise accounts and data before migration
Inventory mailboxes, domain administration, file locations and devices. Choose pilot users, then plan data transfers, mail-flow tests and the changeover. Specify how old mailboxes, historical data, calendars and contacts will be handled.
Include everyday administration
Assign responsibilities for administrator roles, sign-in verification, staff joining and leaving, data sharing and renewals. Check backup, retention, device security and Copilot requirements against the selected plan and add-ons, keeping the subscription and ongoing maintenance scopes clear.
Product bundles follow Microsoft's current regional plans. Deployment, migration and maintenance work is specified separately.
