01The situation

Email and Microsoft 365 were provided through GoDaddy, which limits admin control. The company wanted its own Microsoft-direct tenant, with every mailbox moved across.

02What it had to do

  • Move every mailbox with its contents intact.
  • Keep email working for staff, with as little downtime as possible.

03How it works

  1. Plan

    Inventory the 40+ mailboxes and plan the move from the GoDaddy tenant to the Microsoft-direct tenant.

  2. Migrate

    Move mailbox contents tenant to tenant in Exchange Online.

  3. Cut over and check

    Switch users to the new tenant and confirm each mailbox arrived complete.

04What changed

  • All mailboxes moved to a tenant the company controls directly.
  • Mailbox contents were preserved, with minimal downtime for staff.
