Microsoft 365
Tenant, identity, licensing, collaboration and administration planning.
Cloud and Microsoft 365
Cloud systems that remain governed after migration.
Plan, migrate and manage cloud services around identity, collaboration, resilience and the way employees actually work.
Direct answer
The cloud is an operating model—not simply a destination.
ABT’s existing Cloud IT page establishes cloud infrastructure and Microsoft 365 as long-standing service areas. The new page focuses on the ongoing responsibilities that follow a migration: identity, access, licensing, protection, recovery, user support and change management.
Specific platforms, migration scope and retention or recovery capabilities must be confirmed during discovery.
Service coverage
Connected responsibilities, not isolated products.
Cloud migration
Assess dependencies, sequencing, user impact, security and rollback before moving workloads or data.
Identity and access
Connect cloud access to user lifecycle, authentication and administrative responsibility.
Collaboration
Configure approved tools around communication, files, meetings and business workflows.
Protection and recovery
Clarify native retention, backup requirements, recovery ownership and testing.
Ongoing management
Support users, maintain configuration and coordinate cloud vendors as business needs change.
The ABT difference
The difference is ownership.
ABT stays at the center, coordinating the connected responsibilities around this service instead of leaving the business to manage the gaps between them.

Common questions
Cloud IT Services FAQ
Does moving to Microsoft 365 remove the need for IT management?
No. Cloud services still require identity, configuration, licensing, security, support and governance.
Can ABT migrate email and files?
Migration scope depends on the source systems, data, applications and approved project plan.
Is cloud data automatically backed up?
Retention and recovery vary by service and configuration. Backup requirements should be assessed explicitly rather than assumed.
