Microsoft 365 for Frankton businesses
Frankton, just west of Hamilton's centre, grew around the railway junction and still mixes light industry, trade suppliers, workshops and transport businesses with a local shopping strip, health providers near the hospital and small professional offices.
Older industrial buildings here often have cabling added piecemeal over the decades, and offices attached to workshops cope with dust, vibration and equipment in unsuitable spots. Health-related businesses close to the hospital also need tight control over patient information on laptops and shared computers. Rail and road noise aside, the bigger daily risk is an unmanaged router shared by office and workshop alike.
If you are moving from another email system, an old server or Google Workspace, we plan the move so mail keeps flowing. Staff arrive in the morning to find their email, calendar and files already in place.
Our Hamilton technicians come to Frankton offices and workshops for cabling, computers and networks, and support staff remotely for everyday issues. Any installation is priced in writing beforehand.
What's included
Licence advice
Basic, Standard or Premium? We match licences to how each person works, so you don't pay for features nobody uses.
Ongoing admin
Starters, leavers, shared mailboxes, distribution lists and licence changes handled as you need them.

Daily backup of mail, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams, because Microsoft's own retention is not a backup.
Email migration
Mail, calendars and contacts moved from your old system with no gap in delivery.
File migration
Shared drives and old servers moved into SharePoint and Teams, with permissions that make sense.
Teams setup
Teams and channels that match your departments and projects, plus guest access done safely.
Is it right for your Frankton office?
We can help if:
- You are still on an old email server or a hosting company's mail
- Company files live on one person's laptop or OneDrive
- You are paying for licences you don't understand
- You are moving from Google Workspace
- You want to use Copilot but aren't sure your data is ready
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Microsoft 365 in Frankton: questions
Can computers survive in a dusty workshop office?
With the right choices, yes. Sealed or compact computers, a closed comms cabinet and regular cleaning during maintenance visits extend their life. We recommend suitable gear and placement after looking at the space.
Do you support small offices near Waikato Hospital?
Yes. We support health and professional offices around the hospital precinct with onsite visits from Hamilton and remote help, including securing devices that hold patient information.
How long does a migration take?
A small office usually moves over a few days with the switch done in one evening. Larger file migrations are planned in stages.
Do you support Google Workspace too?
Yes. If Google suits you better we support it, and we move businesses in either direction.
Which Microsoft 365 plan do we need?
Most offices need Business Standard for the desktop apps and Teams, or Business Premium if they want stronger security and device management. Frontline and Basic suit staff who only need email.
Can you buy the licences for us?
Yes, or you can keep buying them yourself. Either way we manage them and make sure you aren't paying for unused seats.
