Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 Has Thousands of Admin Settings. How Many Did You Leave on Default?

Every business gets the same out-of-the-box setup. Insecure sharing permissions, no backup, and retention settings that don't match your actual requirements. We configure M365 the way it should have shipped.

The problem isn't Microsoft 365. It's how it was set up.

Most businesses buy M365 licenses and start using them. Nobody touches the thousands of admin settings spread across Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, Entra, and the Security and Compliance centers. Deleted emails disappear after 14 days by default. SharePoint and OneDrive files get 93 days in the recycle bin, then they're gone. There's no real backup. Retention policies aren't configured the way your compliance team assumes they are.

This isn't your fault. Microsoft builds the platform. They don't configure it for your business.

Retention & compliance Deleted emails: 14 days. Deleted files: 93 days. Then gone.Configured to match your actual business and legal requirements
Sharing permissions Default settings are more permissive than most businesses realizeLocked down to match your org's actual sharing needs
Monitoring & response Thousands of log entries per day. Nobody reading them.SaaS Alerts watches your tenant around the clock. Suspicious activity triggers the Rocket Cyber SOC in Miami. Real analysts, 24/7/365.
Migration Self-service (good luck)Planned, tested, and executed with zero-downtime cutover
Training YouTube videosLive workshop before go-live, weekly office hours for 30 days after
Ongoing support Tier-one phone treeDirect access to senior engineers. Microsoft Solutions Partner means we skip tier-one.

How we deploy Microsoft 365

Deployment sequenceAudit / Configure / Migrate / Train / Support
M365-01

Audit your current setup

We review your existing tenant (or plan a new one), check security settings, and document what needs to change.

M365-02

Configure to our standard

We push our hardened tenant configuration programmatically. Sharing permissions, conditional access, retention policies, compliance settings. All configured to match your business requirements, not Microsoft's defaults.

M365-03

Migrate your data

Email, files, calendars. We've migrated entire organizations from hosted Exchange, Google Workspace, and on-prem servers. We plan the cutover and execute it.

M365-04

Train your people

The day before go-live, we run a hands-on workshop. Bring your laptop. We install OneDrive, connect your SharePoint libraries, and walk through the daily workflows you'll actually use.

M365-05

Support the transition

Weekly one-hour office hours for 30 days after migration. Then a 30-day follow-up to catch the questions that only surface after you've been living in the system.

What Our Clients Say

What's different about how we do M365

01 / M365

One platform, mastered

We don't offer Google Workspace or a menu of alternatives. M365 is our standard. Every managed services client runs it. That focus means we know it cold.

02 / M365

Programmatic configuration

We don't click through admin panels. Our standard tenant config is scripted and pushed consistently across every client. Same security baseline, every time.

03 / M365

Backup every 8 hours

Microsoft doesn't back up your data. We use Datto to back up email, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams every 8 hours — the maximum frequency the Microsoft Graph Backup API allows. If something gets deleted or encrypted, we restore it.

04 / M365

24/7 tenant monitoring with a live SOC

SaaS Alerts monitors your tenant in real time and feeds it to the Rocket Cyber SOC in Miami. Real analysts, 24/7/365. If an account gets compromised at 2 AM on a Saturday, it gets locked down before you wake up.

05 / M365

Compliance that matches your business

We talk about your retention requirements, your legal obligations, and your industry regulations. Then we configure M365 to match. Not the other way around.

06 / M365

Migration is a project, not a checkbox

We ran our own hosted Exchange platform for years before migrating every client to M365. We know what can go wrong because we've done it at scale.

07 / M365

Microsoft Solutions Partner

SMB cloud specialization. When we call Microsoft support, we skip tier-one and go straight to an engineer who can fix things.
