Migrations & Modernisation

Still running a server in the cupboard? Let's modernise.

Whether you're replacing an aging server or untangling a peer-to-peer network, we move your identity and devices into the cloud — so every login, laptop and file is centrally managed, secure and simple.

Migrations & Modernisation

That old server is a ticking clock.

On-prem servers fail, fall out of warranty and become a single point of failure. Peer-to-peer networks — where every PC fends for itself — get messy and impossible to secure. We move you to Microsoft Entra ID and Intune, so identity and devices are managed centrally, from anywhere.

What we modernise

From on-prem boxes to cloud-managed, the calm way.

Server replacement

Retire the on-prem server

We migrate files, shares and logins off your aging server into SharePoint and Microsoft Entra ID — no more cupboard hardware to fail or replace.

Peer-to-peer

Tidy the workgroup chaos

Swap a fragile peer-to-peer network for centrally managed cloud identity, so every account and PC follows one consistent, secure setup.

Device management

Managed devices with Intune

Enrol laptops and phones in Intune — apps, settings and security pushed out automatically, and lost devices wiped remotely.

What modernisation gives you

  • Cloud identity (Microsoft Entra ID) — one secure login across every app and device
  • Your files moved off the server into SharePoint and OneDrive, nothing left behind
  • Laptops and phones enrolled in Intune, configured and secured automatically
  • No more single-point-of-failure server hardware to maintain or replace
  • Staff able to work securely from the office, home or the road

Common questions

Do we still need a server?

Usually not. Most small businesses can retire the on-prem server entirely once files, identity and devices move to the cloud — cutting hardware, power and failure risk.

What's wrong with a peer-to-peer network?

Nothing, until it grows. Peer-to-peer means every PC manages its own users and shares, which quickly becomes inconsistent and hard to secure. Cloud identity centralises all of it.

Will moving cause downtime?

We plan and stage the move and cut over when your schedule allows, and when your team can fit us in. Your operations need not stop, just because you are migrating your tech.
