There are so many reasons to migrate – full access to all of teh Office suite, perhaps you are transferring to Dynamics or want to get access to Teams and all of its power.
Whatever the reason, moving your data is always the challenge. Do you leave it up to your users and drift into 365 but probably lose all the history.
Do you do it yourself, putting up with the steep technical learning curve saving money but expelling hours of valuable time?
Perhaps you want a smooth transition with expert guidance?
If you think the first two options are the best then there is no need to read on.
However if you are at all concerned about how to move from one email system to another smoothly , need to find a way to preserve email history, have to transfer contacts especially if you already have exchange accounts set up on the phones then we can help.
Call us for a free telephone consultancy, we will quickly get to a point where we understand your specific challenges and also are able to give a price for your migration.
Migrating from one email system to another can be challenging.
How do you keep your users in touch, preserve calendars so that your employees meet clients on time and keep email flowing while transferring everybody from one system to the other?
Yet the benefits are massive. Better collaboration, compatible with more and more devices, access to Teams with all the constantly evolving apps and work flow.
Andisa is here to help though. Our arsenal of tools and experience will mean that we can quickly configure your email addresses and devices, transfer history and then switch so that users jump to a new 365 email system but will still see full history, have contacts and all their appointments in place.
Not only that, if you are worried about viruses then we can scan all the history as we transfer.
Autocomplete
Autocomplete is the database of email address that you build up inside Outlook. As you start to type an email address Outlook “autocompletes” the full address. The worry is that autocomplete is not part of your contacts and doesn’t transfer automatically unless you previously had 365 installed. Don’t worry though we have a tool that will export this information and transfer. In fact as an option we can export to a combined email marketing format as well, compiling every email address your organisation ever sent to into one CSV file.
All you need to do is verify that you are OK to use the email address by sending a welcome email to request permission.
Mobile devices
If you have large numbers of mobile devices then our Miradore product can be used to centralise management, track and support them all. We just send a simple connection request by text and the system does teh rest. Once installed we are able to push out email settings from a central portal so that the user has to do very little to get transferred.

Training
Once you are up and running you may want to provide training to your staff so that they get the most out of products such as Microsoft Teams, any of the collaboration products or even just good old Outlook. We work closely with a partner organisation based in Yorkshire to provide specialist training at a very competitive rate. With up to 8 people in a classroom at once teh half day training costs just £80 a person (assuming you book a full 2 session day).
We spent the last few days desperately installing generators for our clients in Scotland - trying to get ready for the XMAS period amongst strikes and power cuts.
If only you provided generators, then power would be as reliable as the network you set up for us. That never goes wrong - if a line fails the system automatically connects to the spare line and our customers keep running! Well done.
You made a real difference to our business, because you stopped us getting a massive surge of calls each time there was a line fault.
