Email has been around for over five decades. In that time, the technology and security underpinning it has evolved to be virtually unrecognisable. Much like most technology, today’s best solution is unlikely to be competitive in ten years if it remains static. New functionality, better security, and the removal of annoying limitations means that each year will see a better solution take the lead.
Businesses in the UAE and world wide rely on email, so it makes sense to have the best version. Organisations require quick, easy, affordable, scalable, and most importantly, reliable solutions. Does your email solution tick all the boxes?

This type of Email migration is particularly popular for businesses who are merging, separating, or changing company names. It allows organisations to start afresh with a new Office 365 Tenant.
This can be delivered alongside Hybrid Exchange so that the migration takes place over a period of time with each department migrating one-by-one. It can also be delivered without Hybrid, where all mailboxes transition at once.
This option is typically chosen by businesses which require additional functionality that can’t be found within G Suite Workspace. It may also be a cost saving exercise.
As IMAP doesn’t currently support syncing of calendars, contacts, or tasks, many businesses opt for this migration to introduce better functionality.
