Microsoft Cloud Experts

We offer specific consultancy services that will benefit your organisation at different stages in your Azure project. The first is scoping and design, a package that allows you to work with one of our consultants to describe your project goals and requirements in detail. The consultant will design your Azure environment to a low level, including all specifications and Azure running costs. An implementation plan will be produced which will specify how the design should be built and migrated to if necessary. This document will also include the cost for you to utilise our Implementation Offering, should you want a Circle Cloud Technical Consultant to build this environment for you. The ultimate goal from our Scoping & Design offering is to get you from “Idea” stage to a detailed design and plan. This design document can be used to complete the build if you have the skills internally, or for us to complete the build for you.

As a Microsoft Gold Partner we can provide you with a single invoice for your Azure consumption each month. Our experts will work with you and your team to ensure you are purchasing your Azure resources using the most cost-efficient methods, such as reserved instances and hybrid licensing. At no extra cost, you will be provided with access to a Power BI dashboard that will show you in depth analysis of your Azure spend.

If you’re looking to migrate to Office 365, Circle Cloud will implement the product using the latest migration methods and best practices, both from a technical and security perspective. Additionally, we perform work for customers who already have Office 365 implemented, particularly around improving their security posture using tools such as conditional access, Defender and Microsoft Endpoint Manager. We have predefined implementation packages for existing Office 365 customers who would like to implement these additional features.

When purchasing licensing through us, you gain access to our licensing expertise. You can ask questions and ensure you are purchasing the licenses that will deliver the most value for your organisation. In addition to licenses and expertise, we also provide you with a self-service portal for adding and removing your own licenses. Using our bespoke reporting platform for Office 365, you can analyze your licenses and see where your Office 365 users are not utilising all of the features of a license, allowing you to identify potential savings.

Circle Cloud’s approach to implementing Microsoft Teams Voice has been designed by learning lessons from many customer projects. Our process begins with a Consultant holding a requirements workshop, designed to ensure you have a full understanding of all of the features within Microsoft Teams Voice. During this workshop, we establish how exactly you want Microsoft Teams Voice to work for your business. We agree your individual user’s capabilities for voice calling, such as number of minutes, international dialing permissions and call queue membership. Business-wide functionality, such as call queues and auto attendants, are designed and agreed upon. We build the system, arrange and deliver training sessions for all of your users and support you with porting your existing numbers into the system.

Teams Voice utilises Microsoft 365 licenses and calling plans. As with all Microsoft Cloud licenses, as a gold partner, we can provide you with your Microsoft Teams Voice licenses and calling plans. Our consultants and account managers can help you navigate the best way to license and pay for your Teams requirements by advising on the use of calling plans, bundled licenses and communications credits to ensure you gain the most value from your Microsoft Teams Voice implementation.
