What We Handle

Everything Microsoft 365, End to End

From first migration to daily management — IT Center covers the full Microsoft 365 stack so your team never has to think about it.

M365 Migration

Seamless migration from Google Workspace, on-premises Exchange, or legacy POP/IMAP accounts. We pre-stage mailboxes, migrate calendars and contacts, and cut over during off-hours to protect your business day. Zero data loss guaranteed.

License Management

Business Basic, Standard, or Premium — IT Center right-sizes your licenses monthly based on actual seat usage. We eliminate wasted licenses, handle renewals, and ensure every user has exactly what they need and nothing they don’t.

Microsoft Teams Deployment

Structured channel architecture, meeting room configuration, phone system integration via Teams Calling, and governance policies to prevent channel sprawl. We train your staff and enforce naming standards from day one.

SharePoint & OneDrive Configuration

Document libraries built for your workflows: department-level permission structures, external sharing controls, OneDrive sync policies, and version history enforcement. We replace chaotic shared drives with a structured, searchable intranet.

Exchange Online + Email Security

Anti-phishing policies, ATP Safe Links, spam filtering through Defender for Office 365, and DKIM/DMARC/SPF configuration. We harden your email tenant against impersonation attacks, BEC fraud, and malicious attachments.

Intune MDM

Device enrollment, compliance policies, conditional access enforcement, and remote wipe capability for lost or stolen devices. IT Center manages your entire device fleet — Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android — from a single pane of glass.

Security Hardening

We Don’t Just Deploy M365 — We Lock It Down

The default Microsoft 365 configuration leaves significant security gaps. IT Center applies a hardened baseline on every tenant we manage.

MFA Enforcement

Multi-factor authentication required for all users, all sign-ins. IT Center enforces MFA via Conditional Access policies with no bypass exceptions. Authenticator app + hardware key options available.

Conditional Access Policies

Block sign-ins from high-risk countries, unknown devices, and anonymous IPs. Require compliant devices for access to sensitive data. Sign-in risk policies powered by Azure AD Identity Protection.

Defender for Business

Microsoft Defender for Business activated on all enrolled endpoints: next-gen AV, attack surface reduction rules, EDR, and automated investigation and remediation. Integrated into the M365 Defender portal for unified visibility.

Secure Score Optimization

IT Center reviews your Microsoft Secure Score monthly and implements recommended improvements. We target and maintain 80+ Secure Score across all managed tenants — far above the SMB average of 35.

Platform Comparison

Why Migrate from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365?

Both platforms handle email. But for compliance-driven Southern California businesses, the differences matter significantly.

Google Workspace — Limitations
⚠️
No native Windows device management. Google requires third-party MDM or Jamf for endpoint compliance — additional cost and complexity.
⚠️
Limited compliance tooling. Google Vault covers eDiscovery basics but lacks the depth of Microsoft Purview for HIPAA, CMMC, or PCI environments.
⚠️
Fragmented security stack. Achieving parity with M365 Defender requires layering multiple third-party products across endpoint, email, and identity.
⚠️
Deep Windows integration gap. Windows Active Directory, Group Policy, and Azure AD hybrid join work natively with M365 — not with Google Workspace.
⚠️
Licensing complexity at scale. Google’s Business Plus and Enterprise tiers often exceed M365 Business Premium in cost once you add required security add-ons.
Microsoft 365 — IT Center Managed
Native Intune MDM included. M365 Business Premium bundles full device management for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android at no extra cost.
Microsoft Purview for compliance. Built-in DLP, retention policies, sensitivity labels, and eDiscovery for HIPAA, CMMC, SOC 2, and financial regulations.
Unified Defender security platform. One console for email threats, endpoint EDR, identity risk, and cloud app security — managed by IT Center daily.
Seamless Windows ecosystem. Azure AD, Autopilot, Group Policy, and Hybrid Join work out of the box — critical for businesses running Windows workstations.
IT Center migration expertise. Our team has migrated 50+ tenants. We handle every step — pre-migration audits, cutover scheduling, and post-migration support.
