Microsoft 365 is the productivity platform that powers modern Sydney businesses — but getting it set up correctly, keeping licences managed, and supporting your team day-to-day takes real expertise. Kinsoft provides end-to-end Microsoft 365 support for small and medium businesses across Sydney, from initial setup and email migration through to ongoing helpdesk support and security hardening.
Whether you’re moving away from a legacy on-premise Exchange server, starting fresh with a new team, or simply not getting the most out of your existing Microsoft 365 subscription, Kinsoft can help.
What We Cover
Microsoft 365 Setup & Deployment
Getting Microsoft 365 right from the start saves you headaches later. Our Sydney-based team handles:
- Tenant creation and configuration — domain verification, DNS records, and admin centre setup done correctly the first time
- Licence selection — we’ll recommend the right plan (Business Basic, Business Standard, or Business Premium) based on your team’s actual needs, so you’re not overpaying for features you don’t use
- User account creation — bulk user provisioning with appropriate roles and permissions
- Microsoft 365 Apps deployment — Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams installed and activated across all devices
- Security baseline configuration — multi-factor authentication, conditional access, and secure defaults applied from day one
Email Migration
Moving your email to Microsoft 365 is one of the most disruptive IT projects a business can undertake — if it’s done without a plan. Kinsoft has migrated dozens of Sydney businesses with zero data loss and minimal downtime:
- Migration from Google Workspace (G Suite), on-premise Exchange, cPanel/Webmail, and other platforms
- Full historical email, contacts, and calendar migration
- Cutover planned outside business hours to minimise disruption
- Post-migration validation to confirm all mailboxes are complete
Microsoft Teams & SharePoint
Microsoft Teams has replaced the office phone system and the shared network drive for many businesses — but only when it’s set up to match the way your team actually works.
- Teams setup with appropriate channels, naming conventions, and guest access policies
- SharePoint site creation and document library structure
- OneDrive for Business configuration and folder sync
- Teams Phone (cloud calling) integration if required
- Training sessions for your team to get up and running quickly
Ongoing Microsoft 365 Support
Once you’re set up, Kinsoft provides ongoing Microsoft 365 support as part of our managed IT service — or on a break-fix basis if you prefer:
- Add and remove users as your team changes
- Licence management and cost optimisation (many businesses are over-licensed)
- Password resets, MFA issues, and account lockouts resolved fast
- Troubleshooting Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint issues
- Monthly security reports and licence usage reviews
Microsoft 365 Security
Business Premium includes enterprise-grade security tools that most small businesses never activate. Kinsoft can unlock:
- Microsoft Defender for Business — endpoint protection across all Windows devices
- Intune device management — enforce security policies on laptops, phones, and tablets
- Azure AD Conditional Access — block sign-ins from unexpected locations or devices
- Defender for Office 365 — advanced protection against phishing and malicious attachments
- Microsoft Purview — data loss prevention and compliance tools for regulated industries

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Microsoft 365 setup take?
A standard setup for a 5–20 person business takes 1–2 business days. Email migration timing depends on mailbox size and source platform — we’ll give you a specific timeline after an initial assessment.
Can you migrate our email without losing anything?
Yes. Kinsoft performs a staged migration that copies all historical email, contacts, and calendar items before the cutover. We validate every mailbox before decommissioning your old system.
Do we need to buy licences through Kinsoft?
No — you can bring your own Microsoft 365 subscription and we’ll support it. However, purchasing through Kinsoft often works out cheaper than buying direct, and you get consolidated billing with your other Kinsoft services.
We already have Microsoft 365 but it’s a mess. Can you help?
Absolutely. A Microsoft 365 audit and clean-up is one of our most common engagements — removing ghost accounts, consolidating licences, fixing mail flow rules, and applying security baselines to existing tenants.
What’s the difference between Microsoft 365 and Office 365?
Microsoft rebranded Office 365 to Microsoft 365 in 2020. The products are essentially the same; the Microsoft 365 branding reflects the addition of security and device management features in newer plans.
