Microsoft 365 & Business Central

Most businesses already run on Microsoft in some form: Outlook for email, Excel for nearly everything else, and maybe an aging file server in the back room. The problem is rarely the tools. It’s that they were set up years apart, by different people, and nothing quite talks to anything else.

As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, Cole Tech plans and delivers projects that bring it all together, moving your email, files, and collaboration into Microsoft 365 and running your finance and operations on Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Microsoft 365 Migrations

Microsoft 365 is more than email in the cloud. Set up properly, it replaces the file server, the shared mailbox nobody can find anything in, and a handful of separate subscriptions.

We move:

• Email into Exchange Online, with mailboxes, calendars, and contacts intact
• Files from on-premises servers and personal drives into SharePoint and OneDrive, organized around how your teams actually work
• Conversations and meetings into Microsoft Teams, so projects stop living in reply-all threads

Security is built in rather than bolted on. We configure Microsoft Entra ID for sign-in and multi-factor authentication, Microsoft Intune to manage and protect company laptops and phones, and Microsoft Defender to guard email and devices. The move to the cloud should leave you more secure than when you started.

Dynamics 365 Business Central

When a business outgrows entry-level accounting software and a maze of spreadsheets, Dynamics 365 Business Central is Microsoft’s all-in-one business management system built for that next stage. It brings finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, and manufacturing into one place, and it works with Outlook, Excel, Teams, and Power BI.

Cole Tech handles Business Central implementations from start to finish:

• Planning: mapping your current processes, chart of accounts, and reports before anything is configured
• Configuration: setting up Business Central around your workflows, not the other way around
• Data migration: moving customers, vendors, items, and open balances from your current system
• Training: hands-on sessions so your team is confident from day one
• Support: we stay with you after go-live, as the same team you already call for IT

How a Microsoft Project Runs

Every project starts with a conversation, not a quote. We learn how your business works, what is slowing you down, and what “done” looks like for you. From there, we put together a written plan with a clear scope, so you know exactly what is happening before any work begins.

Migrations are planned to keep disruption to your day-to-day work to a minimum, and we keep you updated throughout. When the project wraps up, you aren’t handed off to a stranger. Cole Tech’s managed services team can keep supporting everything we built.

Why a Local Microsoft Solutions Partner

Big consultancies can implement Microsoft, but they rarely know your business, and they are rarely the people you call when something breaks on a Tuesday afternoon. With Cole Tech, the team that plans your migration is the same local team that supports it afterward.
