What is Office 365?
Microsoft Office 365 is a cloud-based subscription service that brings together the best tools for the way people work today. It comprises of world-class office applications (e.g. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook etc.) and cloud-based, hosted services (e.g. Exchange Mail, SharePoint Collaboration Service, Skype Messaging Service [now called Microsoft Teams] etc.) for businesses of all sizes.
By combining best-in-class apps like Word, Excel and Outlook with powerful cloud services like OneDrive and Microsoft Teams, Office 365 is the best platform for collaboration today.
Each Office 365 user needs to be licensed for a month or for one year.

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 outsource Office 365 administration to Cloud Pursuit?
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 can happen when we manage your Office 365 tenant as all actions by us are completely auditable and traceable.
Value-driven Office 365 advisory and administration services.
We help our clients achieve derive maximum return on their Office 365 investments. Our services are end-to-end, from onboarding to optimal day-to-day operating and governance.

Microsoft Office 365
We are very pleased with our Office 365 investment, its adoption within the organisation and the ease with which these can be used and seamlessly ported across multiple devices. I am particularly pleased with our partner, Cloud Pursuit who has been our trusted partner in our journey of transforming our in-house IT investments to Cloud-based offerings. The dedication, professionalism and technical expertise that Cloud Pursuit brings has helped this transition to be smooth with zero downtime. We are also pleased with their advise on continuous improvements whether it's related to solutions, upgrades, security issues or any regular updates.
We are very happy with our partner and would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a trusted Microsoft partner.
Cloud Pursuit helped us migrate from a physical server environment to a cloud based solution on SharePoint. The historical complexity built up over 15 years was dealt with in an exemplary fashion. Following our merger with a larger company Sharad was engaged in the integration with a larger SharePoint client. We are now supported by a larger SharePoint support team and we miss Sharad very much - his responsiveness, attention to detail, accuracy and pro-active was is second to none.
As our Managed Service Provider Cloud Pursuit deliver a first-rate service and have always been available to discuss our requirements and needs, offering professional advice and assistance in helping us achieve our IT goals.
The recommended framework has transformed the way we work, and is incredibly stable, safe and reliable. The ongoing IT support either remotely or over the phone is clear and professional, response times are exceptional.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this team to any business that requires IT superheroes from time to time.
We migrated to Office365, thanks to the excellent guidance provided by Cloud Pursuit, our Microsoft Partner and Delegated Administrator at that time. It has helped in optimising our investment in tools required for collaboration within our team and our customers. The biggest benefit coming from easy deployment and use on multiple devices. Also collaborative tools like Sharepoint, Yammer, Skype for Business has been very useful for us. Office 365 provides us complete flexibility in terms of scaling up and version management.
We were quite delighted that Cloud Pursuit could manage the migration to Office365 with zero downtime. Also when it came to technical support, they have very professional team with a service desk and ticketing system. This provides transparency in terms of outstanding issues and its timely resolution.
Cloud Pursuit has been proactive in introducing new services, updates, ecosystem upgrade and most importantly security.
We would be more than happy to recommend Office 365 as solution and Cloud Pursuit as implement and support partner to our references. We feel that its important investment which gives confidence in our infrastructure and allows to focus more on growing our business.
Cloud Pursuit has helped our law firm in different ways and has come as a breath of fresh air in a cluttered IT services marketplace. Sharad Agrawal is a thorough professional and has handheld us through a major transition from on-premises servers to the cloud. He is diligent and follows through with his deliverables. His ability to simplify IT concepts into lay language is fantastic.
Apart from the cloud transition, Cloud Pursuit has also helped us with website designing and hosting. Sharad’s diligent planning and execution have shown through once again, in this process.
We have no hesitation in recommending Sharad and his team.
We had previously worked with Cloud Pursuit on a number of small projects and asked them to manage our on-premise to full in-cloud migration of Microsoft Exchange.
From the beginning, Sharad approached the project with professionalism and enthusiasm with all aspects of the migration planned to the nth degree through detailed conversations and documentation.
Our on-premise install consisted of roughly 250 mailboxes spread across two Exchange 2007 servers located at two different site locations.
Cloud Pursuit managed the whole project from beginning to end. This included updating domain tenant information, any additional license procurement, anti-spam and virus configuration, liaising with the domain name and DSN providers and providing detailed documentation to end users.
Due to the number of mailboxes and messages to migrate Sharad’s team worked around the clock to ensure that all essential work was carried out over a weekend. All that was required on Monday morning was a small configuration change to the users mail client for visibility of their new mailbox. Cloud Pursuit were then on hand for the next 48 hours to monitor mail flow and to address any issues that arose – however, there weren’t any!
I would definitely recommend Cloud Pursuit to manage your on-premise to the in-cloud migration of Microsoft Exchange.
Sharad lead our migration from start to finish and put our business and employees at ease. Sharads attention detail was second to none and no question too small. He made what I am sure was an extremely complex migration seem effortless through preparation, communication and implementation.
Our Sharepoint transition was managed by Cloud Pursuit without any issues whatsoever. In the Marketing department we have daily deadlines with reliance on large files from Photoshop to Tiffs to large Excel sheets.
We experienced a very smooth transition with no downtime, we were able to work continuously throughout the transition, which was truly amazing. We are extremely thankful to Sharad for his ability to plan, communicate and execute such a huge change, and most of all, for his absolute dedication.
We are a small charity with limited IT skills in desperate need of some help and expertise. Sharad helped us migrate our emails to office 365, making as little disruption to us as he possibly could. On top of this he is incredibly helpful and generous with his time and knowledge. His communication was always efficient and prompt. You feel as though you matter, and he went over and above to ensure we had the understanding that we needed of the new systems. I cannot recommend him and Cloud Pursuit any more highly.
JUST Lincolnshire is a small organisation with limited IT knowledge and awareness. Over the last decade we have used various IT solutions to attempt to meet our needs which resulted in a disjointed and inefficient approach to IT. Cloud Pursuit came highly recommended as the company to discuss our IT needs with. Cloud Pursuit were extremely approachable and helpful in our initial conversations and it soon became clear that not only did they have expert knowledge regarding Microsoft but they also were able to identify how this expertise could best help JUST Lincolnshire in our specific charitable mission. The friendliness and clarity in which Cloud Pursuit dealt with JUST Lincolnshire ensured that I had full confidence in putting our IT requirements in their hands. At no stage did I feel that I was being provided with a product I didn’t need but rather being given the right tools to ensure that JUST Lincolnshire was able to work in a smarter and more efficient way.
Cloud Pursuit have been available to answer any questions or queries that I may have and respond in a clear and practical manner that ensures that, not only is the issue resolved but I have the necessary ‘tools’ to deal with future issues.
I thoroughly recommend Cloud Pursuit to any organisation, large or small, who are looking for IT solutions. You will not be disappointed.
