“Knowing I have our data backed up every hour lets me sleep at night. We had a previous backup system that could take almost 18 hours to restore in the event of a server crash; however TLC Tech has our new backup system in place that now allows us to recover all our data in less than an hour.”

“(...) Another big advantage has been the ability to fix a lot of problems through the remote-connect service desk, which is more expedient, efficient and far more economical since it gets issues resolved and my staff back to work faster. TLC Tech has been, and continues to be, a great partner for us.”

“Quick and thorough! Thank you. Also, persistent in contacting me even when I was out sick, not closing the case because I did not reply. And then keeping his promise to find answers and follow up. I'm very happy, thank you!!

Tech immediately found the issue (one drive crashing) and was able to fix it on the first call!”

“Great tech company to work with. We have been customers for over 10 years. I know we can get service for less money, but sometimes paying a bit more is worth it just like in any service industry, even Pest Control like our business is, Pest Control Center, Inc. On another case I sent in the request and in 15 minutes we were all completed. Not happen that quickly sometimes, but glad it was for such a simple fix.”

Why Sacramento Businesses Trust TLC Tech With Microsoft 365 Migration Services

We have run this play since 2004. Twenty-one years in one market means we have inherited plenty of other people's migrations, which turns out to be a useful education in what breaks.

Our process runs five stages and we skip none of them. Pre-migration assessment documents what exists now, including the mailboxes and archives nobody remembers owning. A full backup runs before anything moves, so rollback stays available. Mailbox and file migration happens in scheduled batches instead of one overnight gamble. Post-migration testing checks mail flow, calendar sharing, file permissions, and mobile access on live accounts before we call it finished. User training closes it out, because a migration that leaves your staff guessing has not actually landed.

Two hundred fifty-two Google reviews average out to 4.9 stars, and the ones worth reading describe the handoff rather than the technology. Client Steve Simas wrote that our team "explained things in a jargon-free way" and "consistently exceeds our expectations." The first half of that matters more during a migration than at any other time, when people need to know what is changing and when.

TLC Tech is a Microsoft Partner. On a cutover night, the practical value is escalation through partner channels when something breaks inside the platform itself, rather than joining the public support queue on the one evening you cannot afford to wait.

Signs Your Current IT Setup Is Slipping

The warning signs are rarely dramatic. Tickets take a day longer than they used to. Someone on your team has quietly become the unofficial tech person and now spends Thursdays on password resets. Backups are running, probably, though nobody has restored from one in two years.

None of that shows up on a budget line, which is why it persists. Then a PSPS event or a summer heat wave takes the office offline, or a phishing email finds an unpatched laptop, and the small gaps arrive together as one expensive week. Downtime runs into thousands per hour.

What Is in Scope on a Migration Project

Scope gets set in the assessment, not in a proposal template. A ten-person office leaving a hosted mailbox is a different project from a sixty-person firm retiring a file server. The work typically covers:

  • Tenant build and configuration, including domains and administrator roles
  • Exchange Online migration from on-premises Exchange, hosted mail, or Google Workspace
  • Tenant-to-tenant moves following an acquisition or a corporate split
  • File server and shared drive migration into SharePoint and OneDrive, permissions rebuilt
  • Identity setup and directory synchronization, so sign-in works on day one
  • Teams rollout, including channel structure and rules for outside guests
  • Licensing plan selection and assignment against a verified headcount
  • Device enrollment through Intune, plus decommissioning whatever you no longer need

Moving mailboxes alone is a smaller project with its own page.

Who We Move Onto Microsoft 365 Across the Sacramento Region

Most projects we take on run between 10 and 200 users. Below ten, a migration is usually a weekend of work. Above two hundred you probably have internal IT already, and a co-managed arrangement serves you better than handing the whole thing over.

Nonprofits are a large share of our book. Nonprofit licensing carries eligibility rules and discounts worth confirming before anyone buys seats, and volunteer turnover makes access review part of the project rather than a later cleanup. Healthcare practices need patient communication and record retention to hold up under HIPAA once mail lives in the cloud. Accounting and law firms care most about file permissions, because a shared drive copied into SharePoint without rebuilding access is a breach waiting for someone to find it.

We run these projects in Stockton, Davis, Folsom, Roseville, Elk Grove, and Woodland too.

Questions Buyers Ask Us First

Get the Plan Before You Get the Invoice

Microsoft 365 migration services earn their cost in the weeks before cutover, not on the night itself. The assessment is where the price of the whole project quietly gets decided.

If a previous provider started a migration and left it half done, that is common and it is fixable. Bring us what exists and we will document the gap in writing.

Book your complimentary IT assessment, or call (916) 439-8695 and ask for a migration scoping call. You get a written inventory, a sequence, a timeline, and no obligation to proceed. We have been running these projects for Sacramento businesses since 2004.
