A Microsoft 365 consultant evaluates your current email, file storage, collaboration tools, users, and security requirements, then recommends and implements the right Microsoft 365 setup. During a migration, the consultant plans the transition, configures the tenant, moves data such as Exchange mailboxes and OneDrive files, tests access, supports users, and helps manage the environment afterward.
