Cloud & Microsoft 365
A buyer-focused guide to Microsoft 365 and cloud management that goes beyond license resale. It covers tenant hardening, device management, data protection, migrations, cost governance, AI readiness, and ownership.
The guide is delivered by email after the short form is submitted.
Questions the Guide Helps You Ask
Will the provider assess and harden the tenant before recommending new licenses?
Are conditional access, admin-account protection, Intune, encryption, and remote wipe included?
How are Microsoft 365 data backed up and restores tested?
Who owns the tenant, global admin accounts, domains, and licensing agreements?
What You Leave With
Find gaps in identity, device, backup, and tenant security before signing.
Control license sprawl and require a regular cost-optimization review.
Protect ownership and require a migration rollback and offboarding plan.
Buyer Questions
Use these answers as a starting point, then require the provider to tailor every commitment to your environment and put it in writing.
Microsoft protects the availability of its service, but retention and recovery may not meet every business need. A separate backup with tested restores helps protect against deletion, ransomware, and account compromise.
Review permissions, external sharing, sensitivity labels, data ownership, and device access first. AI can surface information users are technically allowed to reach, including information they should no longer have.
The customer should own the tenant, domains, licenses, and primary administrative identities. The provider should use documented delegated access that can be revoked.
