How can we help you?

As a Microsoft Partner, Cloud Pursuit has extensive experience in consulting Office 365 products, license procurement and provisioning, migration (on-premise to the cloud), training, delegated administration and support.

Having deployed Office 365 since 2014, we have accumulated a wealth of knowledge and real-life experience while migrating a number of customers from their legacy collaboration platforms to Office 365 Enterprise and Small-Business editions.

Our approach to Office 365 migration is based on sound planning with a comprehensive risk assessment to ensure zero downtime, zero information loss and seamless service transition.

Why should you consider outsourcing Office 365 administration to us?

Office 365 is a complex product with multi-levels of configuration, security and integration options. Think of it as an aircraft cockpit, with a lot of dials and switches – it requires a great deal of training and experience to use them correctly.

In-house IT teams are often engaged with day-to-day tasks and unable to deploy the rigour in leveraging the technology to its full capabilities.

This is where Cloud Pursuit’s expertise can help. We make sure you get the right package and help you achieve the optimum ROI.

Is outsourcing a risk to your organisation’s information security?

We believe otherwise! We see your internal IT department, and often its relatively junior member to have full administrative access to your senior executive’s mailboxes as a risk to information security.

We safeguard all executive communications and ensure that all access control policies are strictly maintained at all times. Our governance ensures the optimal security of your user data.

We have come across numerous instances where inadequate or wrong security posture has led to unsolicited access to information. SharePoint document libraries are the most vulnerable. Mailbox delegate permissions can be misused. None of this will happen when we manage your Office 365 tenant as all actions by us are completely auditable and traceable.
