Migrated a manufacturing company’s email, files, and Teams to M365 with zero downtime.
The Challenge
A mid-sized manufacturing company was running an aging on-premise Exchange server and scattered file shares. Email was unreliable, remote access was painful, and the IT team spent most of their week just keeping the server alive instead of supporting the business.
Our Solution
We planned and executed a staged migration to Microsoft 365: mailboxes were moved in off-hours batches, shared drives were lifted into SharePoint and OneDrive with proper permissions, and Teams was rolled out with adoption training for every department.
The Results
- Zero downtime during the migration
- All 120+ users productive on M365 within 3 weeks
- 65% reduction in IT time spent on email/server issues
- Remote work enabled for the entire workforce
