Steps To Set Up Microsoft 365 For Your Business.

Before we get to the steps, here are three things that you should know.

  • People you want to add to office 365. When you are updating your domain information, you have to add it again.
  • Notifying employees about the user ID and password so that they can sign in. they won’t be having the access to their email so you cannot use them.
  • If your business has a domain name (zindagi.tech) and you are planning to use Office 365 email then you need to know where the domain is currently registered and have the sign-on info.

If you are planning to move your business to Office 365 all at once then move your domain to Office 365 first. Commence by running the wizard set up and it will ask you to set up the domain.

But if you are planning to move in parts then let’s get started with the following steps.

  • Adding the employees to office 365 and allowing them to download and install office apps.
  • To use the apps, download and install Office Apps on your work desktop and other devices too.
  • For meetings, install Skype.
  • Move the data to OneDrive or Team sites, i.e., the cloud storage of Office 365.
  • Run the Office 365 wizard to move your domain and email.

All The System Requirements Are Met – Need To Check Beforehand

Each employee the Office Apps on up to 5 PCs and Macs. You should check the OS and computer requirements before installing Office suites for business. The mobile Apps can be installed on iOS, Windows Phones, and Androids. Get the information on mobile devices in System requirements for Office.

Plan Out For Email

It takes 2 days minimum to switch your existing email to Office 365, so you have to plan your email downtime. You need to direct your emails to the inbox of Office 365 by using wizard setup and we will guide you through the updates regarding the domain host. The domain host is updated which usually takes from one hour to 72 hours. Plan your update during the weekend to save the work time as on weekends, you can go ahead with the downtime and lesser work would be affected.

If there are fewer employees and most of them know how to migrate their mailboxes but if there are more and you are migrating from Gmail then go to Migrate Google Apps mailboxes to Office 365. If you are migrating from another provider than Gmail then you can go ways to migrate multiple accounts to Office 365.

File Storage And Migration
