Microsoft 365 Migration.

Migrate to Microsoft 365 with confidence. AOLC handles your email, data, and users — with zero downtime and full support.

Why Migrate to Microsoft 365?

Microsoft 365 gives your team enterprise-grade email, file storage, collaboration, and security — all in the cloud. No more managing on-premise Exchange servers, worrying about hardware failures, or paying for expensive server licences.

With Microsoft's data centres in Johannesburg and Cape Town, South African businesses benefit from low-latency access and local data residency. Your data stays in South Africa, compliant with POPIA and other regulatory requirements.

The cost savings are significant. Replace ageing servers, annual licence renewals, and backup infrastructure with a single monthly subscription that includes everything: email, Office apps, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and enterprise security features like MFA and Defender.

Our Migration Process.

A structured, proven approach that minimises disruption and maximises adoption.

1

Assessment & Planning

We audit your current environment — mailboxes, file servers, DNS, Active Directory, and third-party integrations. A detailed migration plan is produced with timelines and risk mitigation.

2

Mailbox & Data Migration

Email, calendars, contacts, and archives are migrated from Exchange, hosted email, Gmail, or other platforms. We use batch migration to ensure zero data loss and minimal downtime.

3

SharePoint & OneDrive Setup

File servers and shared drives are migrated to SharePoint and OneDrive. Folder structures are optimised, permissions are mapped, and sharing policies are configured.

4

Teams Deployment

Microsoft Teams is configured for your organisation — channels, teams, and meeting policies. Integration with existing phone systems and third-party apps where needed.

5

Security Configuration

Multi-factor authentication (MFA), conditional access policies, data loss prevention (DLP), and Microsoft Defender are configured to protect your environment from day one.

6

Training & Ongoing Support

Staff training sessions covering Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive. Ongoing support and optimisation to ensure adoption and resolve any post-migration issues.

What We Migrate.

We move your entire digital workplace to Microsoft 365 — not just email.

✉

Email

From Exchange Server, hosted email, Gmail, or any IMAP provider to Exchange Online. Mailboxes, calendars, contacts, rules, and shared mailboxes — all migrated.
