Microsoft 365 for Te Atatū businesses
Te Atatu Peninsula and Te Atatu South are mostly residential, with local shopping centres, medical and dental practices, trades businesses, early childhood centres and many home-based professionals who appreciate the quick motorway access. Commercial premises are generally small.
Many businesses here are owner-operators with a few staff, using cloud accounting and phones more than desktop computers. The common gaps are shared passwords, no multi-factor sign-in, personal email used for business and no backup, all of which are inexpensive to fix and remove a lot of risk.
Microsoft 365 is where most offices now keep their email, files and calendars. It is powerful, but the defaults leave plenty to be desired: shared files end up in one person's OneDrive, leavers' mailboxes disappear, and security features you are already paying for sit switched off.
We visit Te Atatu practices, offices and home businesses for setups and fixes, and provide remote help for most requests. Pay as you go suits small teams with occasional needs.
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.
Security settings
Multi-factor sign-in, conditional access and the protections included in your licence, switched on.
Teams setup
Teams and channels that match your departments and projects, plus guest access done safely.
Backup
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.
Ongoing admin
Starters, leavers, shared mailboxes, distribution lists and licence changes handled as you need them.
Is it right for your Te Atatū 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 Te Atatū: questions
We use personal Gmail for our business. Should we change?
A business email on your own domain looks more professional, is easier to secure and stays with the business when people leave. We can move you to Microsoft 365 and bring your old email across.
What does an early childhood centre need from IT?
Reliable devices for staff and the centre management system, secure handling of children's records and photos, and Wi-Fi that covers the building. We set those up and keep them maintained.
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.
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.
Will we lose email during the move?
No. We copy existing mail first, then switch delivery at a quiet time and copy the last few messages, so nothing is lost.
Is Microsoft 365 backed up already?
Microsoft keeps deleted items for a limited time. That is not a backup. A separate backup protects you from accidental deletion, ransomware and departing staff.
