Case Study: Migration from Exchange 2010 to Hybrid Office 365

How a Cargo Company Saved Huge Infrastructure Costs by Migrating to Office 365

Background:

A cargo company based in New Orleans, Louisiana, wanted to upgrade its existing Exchange 2010 infrastructure. Being a 24/7 support service with 130 mailboxes, the company couldn’t afford any downtime for its remote maintenance workers. They wanted to introduce a solution that took care of Disaster Recovery and business continuity in multiple locations to improve its communication from its remote cargo ships and save HR costs.

Apps4Rent’s Solution:

After a diligent feasibility check and cost analysis of the company’s unique network structure, Apps4Rent suggested to configure hybrid Exchange server for Office 365. Migrate all the components of the email including mail flow, OWA redirection, journaling mailbox, retention policies to Office 365 Business Premium.

Results:

The IT staff got rid of tedious and lengthy process of managing Exchange servers including backups, Windows updates, hardware management and so on. With a successful Office 365 migration, the management can focus on the core issues of the company without worrying about IT maintenance anymore.
