Illustrative scenario
A common scenario for a business with about 45 users: email is fragmented and documents are shared across several channels. Before moving to Microsoft 365, the business should inventory its domains, mailboxes, data volume, user groups, desktop Office requirements and security needs. IT Systems uses this assessment to recommend licensing, migration phases, tenant and DNS configuration, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint and the required handover documentation.
