Best way of implementing O365 and Teams (sequence...)

We want to implement Office365 to replace our Office2010 on-prem and Teams to use it as our telephony service. We also want to use the collaborative, meeting and video-conferencing features of Teams....

    A lot of factors need to be taken into account when rolling out new features and/or systems. 

    • How experienced are your users with the Office suite ( Word, Excel etc ) 
    • Do you have any existing Exchange servers on-prem at the moment? 

     

    If your users have knowledge on the Office suite then I dont see a problem with rolling out Office ProPlus. 
    But I would suggest that you set up an Office365 tenant, create accounts for some pilot users and let them try out Office ProPlus. And hold a crash-course in Teams/Collaboration 

     

    I also suggest modifying the licenses that you assign to the users so that you disable the products you dont want them to use straight away, This lets you controll what services they can access and minimizes the risk of them being overwhelmed with new technology. 

     

    Also, you need to take into account your current Infrastructure so you can deploy Office365 best. 

    • Do you have a local Active Directory?
      • Should you implement Azure AD sync? 
    • Do you have a local Exchange server?
      • Set up a hybrid or migrate to Office365? 

     

    Let me know if you have any more questions and we can discuss this furhter. Im more than happy to help. 

     

    Kind Regards
