The main goal was to create an agile and modern IT environment, capable to support the expansion and migration of the existing data.

Vladimir Markovic, Microsoft Licensing Sales Specialist, tells us more about the project specifics and its implementation:

“The challenges were many: from migrating an enormous amount of shared resources, to limits in the Tenant2Tenant migration related to Forms, Planner, Teams, Stream. We were constantly working in different time zones, with people in Mexico, the US, Germany, Romania, China and Serbia.”

To ensure the information access and user security, the following technologies were used: ATP – Windows Defender, MFA, Conditional Access, Cloud apps security, Network security Groups and Azure B2B.
