Is it for me?

Todays modern workforce has a certain expectation when it comes to collaboration tools and business systems. Having to rely on outdated technology, which lacks in features and document control, can be frustrating for employees. Countless hours are wasted searching through folders, dealing with duplication and navigating emails to find “that” attachment.

Alongside old technology, most companies have an abundance of legacy data. They see the benefits of migrating to the cloud, but with files stored on shared drives, desktops, Dropbox and other locations, it can be hard to know where to start or what approach to take.

yoko:10 have a proven migration methodology, which provides:

• A defined approach for adopting Microsoft 365; what to use when, and what goes where.
• A properly planned and configured SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams environment.
• Identification of existing redundant, obsolete or trivial data.
• Full migration plan and migration of files, permissions and properties.
• On-boarding and support for admins and employees.

Why yoko:10?

We’ve been working in the Microsoft Productivity and Collaboration space since 2006 . That means we’ve been living and breathing governance for the past 15 years. All of our Microsoft 365 deployments benefit from the solid foundation of good governance. We know which conversations to have, and in most case, what the likely decisions should be.

Using the many admin centres included with Microsoft 365, you can monitor most aspects of governance yourself. But do you really want to, even if that was a practical approach? Using Rencore’s cloud governance application, we will monitor your environment, creating dashboards and providing notifications based on rules defined by you. We’ll also provide your administrators with access to the governance dashboards, if required.

What’s involved?

We’re happy to discuss your migration requirements, or answer any questions you may have. Just pick up the phone or drop us an email.

In the meantime, here’s an overview of the main area’s we’d expect to cover when delivering a Microsoft 365 migration project:

• A workshop to confirm requirements, and understand your current IT landscape and file storage.
• Review your current approach to information management and information governance.
• Discuss options relating to tenant configuration and the migration approach.
• Review migration tools, including features, suitability and associated cost.
• Create a migration plan, covering the agreed requirements and approach.
• Complete your Microsoft 365 migration, inline with the agreed migration plan.
• Provide training and onboarding for employees, teams and admins.
