Email migrated to Exchange Online
We moved VLI Conveyors' mailboxes off the on-site Exchange environment and into Exchange Online, bringing mailbox administration into Microsoft 365.

Client story · Microsoft 365 deployment
Moving email to Exchange Online Identity, Intune and security configured for ongoing support
We migrated email from on-premises Exchange to Exchange Online, standardised the Microsoft 365 environment around it and handed it into ongoing support.
The brief
An Exchange migration with administration and support planned from the start
VLI Conveyors needed to replace its on-premises Exchange environment and establish consistent administration across Microsoft 365. The scope included user and mailbox management, authentication, permissions, endpoint configuration and security settings.
We planned the migration around those requirements and the handover into ongoing managed services.
