FastTrack is your advisor to help deploy Microsoft 365 at no additional cost to your eligible subscriptions. FastTrack is built from engineering expertise based on our work with over 60,000 organizations. We’d like to focus today on our data migration services.

Our customer, Toshiba America Business Solutions, began upgrading to Office 365 by migrating its mail servers to Microsoft Exchange Online. The company engaged the Microsoft FastTrack team to migrate quickly and cost-effectively which enabled its people to work wherever they work best. Rob Williams, their Director of IT, said, “The FastTrack team helped us accelerate our migration to Office 365, getting us where we wanted to be faster, more efficiently, and without additional costs.”

Read on to learn how the Microsoft FastTrack team can help you achieve the best possible migration while keeping costs low.
