More security, more power, better support. Microsoft is powerful in collaboration and providing a user-friendly experience. Including best-in-class security, dozens of apps to choose from, and excellent customer service, no reason not to.
Migration, licensing, support - Vicana is here to guide and support you. We have the experience to get this done right.
G Suite / Google Workspace is user-friendly and a great deal. And, as your company grows and its legal and security obligations change, you outgrew it.
Let's try to answer all of your questions.
We set everything up ahead of time and do a pre-migration. Then, once everyone in your organization knows what is happening, we do the final migration and make the behind the scenes changes after hours. We will also provide instructions on how to remove Gmail from devices and add the Microsoft account and setup the Microsoft Authenticatior.
It depends on the amount of data you have and how many users you have and how many of your users need hand holding. We like to hold hands, but it takes time. The planning and training process could take a week or two, but the actual data move is done in a few days, on average.
Yes. When we do the final cutover after hours, or over night, there may be an hour or so that you can't access your email. Most mail servers will retry messages if one fails, but risk of this in minimized by doing the final cutover after hours. Once migrations starts, we ask the users to either delete messages or keep them in their inboxes, and not more to folders, just until the migration is done.
Simple. Call us at (787) 759-8635, option 1 or email us at helpdesk@vicana.com. Included in the price, is making sure everything went well. We will guarantee technical resolutions. If you need more training, we are happy to provide that at a reasonable cost.
You decide. Some customers choose to migrate just the email portion (Gmail). Some want us to migrate your Google Drive. Email Migration includes emails, contacts, calendar items, folders, shared mailboxes, email aliases, all domains, and distribution lists. Google Drive migration includes: folders, hierarchy, group permissions, and files get transferred. Keep in mind, sharing does not get migrated. Google Drive data data gets migrated to OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online.
You will need to give us access to the Google Admin account and DNS host. We will create the Microsoft Tenant and give administrator rights to the person you designate. Most of our customers have us keep admin rights to the tenant so we can provide the highest level of support.
No. Data is moved, not copied and pasted. We can do a backup before the proces starts.
For email migration we charge $125 per user with a minimum of $1400. If you want to also include Google Drive migration to OneDrive for Business, we add $900 to the minimum fee, or an extra $20 per user, which ever is more. Most customers either have no, or minimal data on Google Drive, and thus only need email migration. Users can also migrate Google Drive data themselves by downloading the Google Drive data and uploading to OneDrive, and we can provids instructions on how to do this.
You can check the cost of the microsoft licenses here: Microsoft licensing.
You purchase the licenses through Vicana and Vicana supports you for a flat fee or at an hourly rate. We can help you choose the best path for licensing: monthly, or annual commitment. You can mix license types for differnet types of users.
