Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about cloud & microsoft 365 management in Sydney

What Microsoft 365 plan does my business need?

Most SMBs benefit from Microsoft 365 Business Premium, which includes Office apps, email, Teams, SharePoint, and essential security features like Intune and Defender for Office 365. Larger organisations may need E3 or E5 plans for advanced compliance and security. Peer 2 Peer IT can assess your needs and recommend the optimal licensing strategy.

How long does Microsoft 365 migration take?

A typical Microsoft 365 migration for a 20-50 user organisation takes 2-4 weeks, including planning, pilot testing, and cutover. Larger or more complex migrations may take 6-12 weeks. Peer 2 Peer IT uses staged migration approaches to minimise disruption and ensure a smooth transition.

Is Microsoft 365 data automatically backed up?

No—this is a common misconception. Microsoft's native retention policies protect against accidental deletion for a limited time, but don't provide true backup and recovery. Peer 2 Peer IT recommends dedicated M365 backup solutions that protect your email, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams data with longer retention and point-in-time recovery.

How do you secure Microsoft 365?

We secure M365 through multiple layers: Conditional Access policies, multi-factor authentication (MFA), Defender for Office 365 for email protection, data loss prevention (DLP) policies, sensitivity labels for document classification, and security monitoring. Our hardening follows Microsoft best practices and the Essential Eight framework.
