Why Microsoft 365

Everything your team needs, in one secure platform

Microsoft 365 brings together email, documents, video meetings, cloud storage, and enterprise security, replacing a patchwork of tools with a single, managed solution.

Work from Anywhere

Access emails, documents, and apps on any device — desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. No VPN required for your core tools.

Scales with your Business

Add or remove licences as your team grows. Upgrade plans as your needs change — no long hardware refresh cycles required.

Real Time Collaboration

Edit documents simultaneously with your team via Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Chat and meet in Microsoft Teams without switching apps.

Predictable Monthly Costs

Replace unpredictable licence renewals and server costs with a simple per-user, per-month fee. Mother manages billing on your behalf.

M365 Migration Services

Moving to Microsoft 365? We make it straightforward.

Whether you’re migrating from Google Workspace, an on-premises Exchange server, or another provider, Mother Technologies manages the entire M365 migration, with minimal disruption to your team.

A Microsoft 365 migration involves moving your emails, files, contacts, calendars, and business applications to the M365 cloud environment. Done properly, your team barely notices the switch.

Mother handles the technical complexity, infrastructure assessment, data mapping, security configuration, and user training. This allows your team to focus on their work throughout the process.

On-premises to M365

Moving from local Exchange servers or file servers to the Microsoft 365 cloud.

Google Workspace to M365

Gmail, Drive, and Google Workspace migrated cleanly to Outlook, OneDrive, and Teams.

Hosted email to M365

Moving from third-party hosted email providers to Microsoft Exchange Online.

Tenant-to-tenant

Consolidating two M365 environments following a merger, acquisition, or rebrand.

Microsoft 365 support across Scotland

Scotland-wide M365 support, with local engineers

Mother Technologies is headquartered in Aberdeen and has offices across Scotland, meaning Microsoft 365 support is delivered by engineers who know your region, your industry landscape, and can be onsite when remote support isn’t enough.

Microsoft 365 FAQs

  • Yes. We migrate Gmail to Outlook, Google Drive to OneDrive, and Google Meet to Microsoft Teams, including calendar and contacts data. We also ensure DNS records are correctly updated so mail flows correctly from day one.

  • Most small and medium Scottish businesses choose Business Standard. It includes the full desktop Office apps alongside Teams, Exchange, and SharePoint. Organisations in regulated sectors (legal, finance, healthcare) often benefit from Business Premium's advanced security features. We'll walk through your specific requirements and recommend the right plan.

  • Mother provides 24/7 helpdesk support. If you have an M365 outage, login issue, or security incident outside business hours, you can reach us by phone or email and an engineer will respond according to your SLA.

  • No. Our migration process includes pre-migration backups, pilot testing, and verification checks to ensure all data arrives intact. We run parallel systems during the transition so no mail is lost, even during the cutover window.
