TRANSCRIPT
With the movement to online
services, an increasing number of
organisations are realising that
they can save money and time and
use their resources more efficiently
by utilising cloud-based
applications rather than
maintaining and running them
in-house.
Productivity applications such as
email, instant messaging (IM) and
document management are critical to
any organisation’s success. However
the cost of installing, maintaining
and supporting these applications
makes them an ideal candidate to be
moved to the cloud on a per user,
subscription basis.
Is your organisation ready to take advantage of Microsoft Office 365?
Office 365 allows organisations to be up and running quickly, without the need to purchase additional hardware. This gives a true reflection of monthly costs, without any surprises.
As experts in the design and implementation of Office 365 solutions, and one of Microsoft’s Cloud Accelerate partners within New Zealand, Intergen will help you avoid costly mistakes and plan an effective migration to Office 365.
By performing analysis across your server, desktop and network infrastructure, our Office 365 Readiness Assessment helps you to identify any factors that could potentially limit the implementation of an Office 365 solution.
As part of this exercise, we will produce a comprehensive readiness report, including a technical action plan, which will highlight and prioritise any potential roadblocks. We will also provide a post-assessment presentation to explain our findings and action plan.

Service OverviewOur Office 365 Readiness Assessment comprises a review of your server, desktop and network infrastructure, resulting in a comprehensive report of our findings, remediation actions and a technical action plan.
All relevant data will be collected by an Intergen Consultant, resulting in a comprehensive report detailing:
TECHNICAL ASSESSMENT
» Domains Ensure that your Active – Directory environment is compatible with Office 365 requirements, and receive best-practice remedial action.
» User Identity and Account Provisioning – Single sign-on using ADFS and Directory Sync technologies eliminate the use of multiple passwords for different cloud-based applications. Understand the single-sign requirements to provide a richer end-user experience.
» Existing application compatibility – Exchange, SharePoint, Lync – determine whether a full cloud solution or hybrid model best fits your requirements, and discover which workloads are better suited to migrate to the cloud.
» Client and End User Experience – End user and client requirements are equally as important when planning an Office 365 migration. See which desktops and laptops in your business are Office 365 ready, and receive a clear action plan, allowing your users to experience Office 365 as intended.
» Network – When connecting to your
applications in the cloud, your
network and firewall services are
vital in the success of the overall
solution. Identify the minimal
amount of changes required while
maintaining your existing network
security policies.

assessment is broken down into three
