Microsoft 365 Setup & Migration
Microsoft 365 setup onsite, on site
Moving email and files to Microsoft 365, or setting up new users.
Moving email and files to Microsoft 365, or setting up new users.
Microsoft 365 setups vary depending on where you are starting. A new business may only need a domain added, DNS records updated and accounts created. An office moving from an old email host, Google Workspace or an on-premises server needs mailbox migration, calendar and contact transfer, and a plan for shared mailboxes and distribution groups. We check licences so each user has the right features.
What the technician does
- Set up accounts, mailboxes and Teams
- Install Office apps on each computer
- Turn on two-step sign-in
We set it up onsite and walk staff through it.
About Microsoft 365 setup onsite
Onsite, we install Office apps, set up Outlook profiles, configure OneDrive and SharePoint for shared files, and connect Teams. Security defaults or conditional access are turned on, along with multi-factor authentication and protections against phishing and spoofing. We stay with staff while they sign in for the first time, helping with authenticator apps and making sure email and files appear where they expect.
What usually causes it
- Moving off an old email host or server
- Staff sharing a single login
- No multi-factor authentication on accounts
- Files spread across personal devices and USB drives
- A new business setting up email and file sharing
Before we arrive
- Login for your domain registrar or DNS host
- Admin access to your current email or Microsoft 365 tenant
- A list of staff, their roles and which shared folders they use
- Any shared mailboxes such as accounts or info addresses
What a visit looks like
When you book Microsoft 365 setup onsite, you tell us what's going on and we reply with a time that suits you and a price. Nothing starts until you're happy with both.
On the day, the technician arrives, looks at the problem in person and confirms the plan with you before starting. If something turns out different from what was expected - a part is needed, or the cause is somewhere else - we stop and agree the change with you first.
When the work is done we test it with you, show you what was changed, and leave the area tidy. For business jobs we note what we did, so there is a record for whoever looks after your IT next.
Pricing
Each Microsoft 365 setup onsite job is priced before work starts. The price depends on what's involved - the size of the site, the equipment, and whether parts are needed - so the quickest way to a number is to tell us about the job on the booking form.
There is no contract and no monthly fee. You book the job you need and pay for that job.
Microsoft 365 setup onsite: questions
Which Microsoft 365 plan should we use?
It depends on whether you need desktop Office apps, device management or advanced security. Business Standard and Business Premium suit many small offices. We review your needs before buying licences.
Will our email go down during the move?
With proper planning and DNS changes, email interruption is usually minimal. We migrate mailboxes in advance, switch mail flow at a quiet time and check messages afterwards.

Yes. We come to businesses and homes across Auckland and Hamilton and do the work where the equipment is.
