Microsoft 365, Set Up Right and Right-Sized
Most businesses pay for more 365 than they use and secure less of it than they should. We fix both directions.
TechFort migrates Inland Northwest businesses to Microsoft 365, hardens it (MFA, conditional access, backup), and right-sizes licensing - it is common to find 20-30% of license spend going to unused seats and wrong tiers. We manage the whole platform: email, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and the security settings Microsoft leaves loose by default.
What we do with 365
- Migrations. From old servers, Gmail, or a tangled prior setup - mail, files, and calendars moved without losing a thing.
- Security hardening. Out of the box, 365 is configured for convenience. We enforce MFA, sensible sharing rules, and alerting.
- License right-sizing. An audit of every seat and tier. Former employees still holding licenses, premium tiers nobody uses - found and freed.
- 365 backup. Microsoft keeps the service running; protecting your data from deletion and ransomware is your job. We make it automatic.
- Actually using the thing. Teams, shared files, and automation your staff already pays for - turned on and taught.
Straight answers
Common Questions
Doesn't Microsoft back up our 365 data?
Not the way most owners assume. Microsoft guarantees the service stays up; deleted mailboxes, ransomware-encrypted files, and purged data past short retention windows are your problem. A third-party 365 backup closes that gap for a few dollars per user.
Can you lower our Microsoft 365 bill?
Often, yes. Unused seats from departed staff and over-tiered licenses are extremely common - license audits regularly trim meaningful monthly spend without anyone losing a feature they use.
