Microsoft 365 — You're already paying for it. Is it really working for you?
Most SMEs in Valais pay for Microsoft 365 every month. Email works, files are somewhere in the cloud, Teams is installed on the computers. On the surface, everything looks fine.
But underneath? Premium licenses paid for people who only use Outlook. Teams installed but nobody uses it — teams keep communicating on WhatsApp. No backup of Microsoft 365 data (no, Microsoft doesn't back up your emails by default). Passwords unchanged since 2021. SharePoint hastily configured, unused. And often, nobody has yet taken the time to review the full picture.
It's nobody's fault. It's just that nobody has taken 30 minutes to look at the whole picture and tell you concretely what's working, what's not, and what should be fixed first. That's exactly what we offer.
The M365 Audit — 30 minutes of clarity
We don't ask you to switch providers. We don't sell you anything during the call. We look at your Microsoft 365 environment and give you an honest assessment.
What we check in 30 minutes:
Your licenses
Are you paying the right plan for each user, or financing features nobody uses? Some SMEs save CHF 200 to 500 per month just by adjusting licenses.
Your security
Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enabled? Are your passwords strong? Do former employees still have access? Is your admin protected? We check the 10 critical security points.
Your backups
Microsoft guarantees service availability, not your data backup. If an employee deletes a file or ransomware encrypts your OneDrive — do you have a safety net? Most SMEs don't.
Actual adoption
Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Power Automate: which tools are being used, which are ignored? We identify quick wins — features you're already paying for that could save you time immediately.
Your current provider
We don't badmouth anyone. If your provider is doing a good job, we tell you. If things are missing, we show you. You decide next.
What you walk away with — even if you do nothing more
At the end of the 30 minutes, you receive by email:
M365 health score
Where you stand on the 5 dimensions: licenses, security, backups, adoption, configuration.
3 priority fixes
The most impactful actions to take first, ranked by urgency and ease.
Waste estimate
If your licenses are oversized, we quantify the potential savings.
Honest recommendation
Fix it yourself, ask your current provider to do it, or entrust us with the management.
No 40-page report. No jargon. 3 clear priorities and a decision to make.
Sound familiar?
"We pay for M365 but I don't know exactly how much or why."
"Teams is installed but everyone uses WhatsApp."
"I think we have backups. At least, I hope so."
"Nobody has reviewed my M365 configuration yet."
"We sometimes get Microsoft security alerts, but nobody reads them."
"We'd like to move to M365 but don't know where to start."
If even one of these statements resonates, the 30-minute audit is worth it.
What this audit is NOT
It's not a disguised sales call. We won't ask you to sign anything.
It's not an attack on your provider. If everything's fine, we tell you.
It's not a commitment. Your accounts, your data, your access stay with you. We don't touch anything.
It's a second opinion — like consulting another doctor. Not because the first one is bad, but because you want to be sure.
And if you decide to go further
Some SMEs do the audit, fix things themselves and no longer need us. Perfect. Others ask us to take over their M365. Here's what we do:
We migrate your mailboxes, files and calendars to Microsoft 365 without interruption — whether you're coming from Gmail, a local Exchange server, or another host.
We choose and manage the right licenses for each user. Business Basic for those who only need Outlook and OneDrive. Business Standard for Office app users. Business Premium for profiles requiring enhanced security. We adjust, we don't oversell.
We configure Exchange, SharePoint, Teams and OneDrive properly — not just "it works", but "it's well organized, secure and maintainable".
We set up Power Automate to automate your recurring tasks: leave approvals, notifications, automatic reports, approval workflows.
We manage Azure when you need advanced cloud services: Active Directory, virtual machines, storage.
We train your employees to actually use the tools — not a 3-hour PowerPoint session, but practical hands-on guidance based on their real use cases.
We provide daily support — when Outlook stops syncing on a Monday morning, you call and we pick up.
Why a local partner?
When Teams crashes at 8am on the day of a client meeting, you don't want a ticket with a 48-hour SLA. You want someone to pick up the phone and fix the problem. We're in Sion, we know your teams, and we answer directly — no chatbot, no call center.
