What’s included

Everything you need to make an informed decision and get a solution that actually fits your business.

Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace

We source, license, configure, and optimize the right productivity platform for your team's workflow — at the best available price.

Cloud migration planning & execution

Full migration management from on-premise servers to the cloud — data, email, applications, and users — with zero-downtime cutovers.

Cloud backup & disaster recovery

Off-site backups with tested restore times. If ransomware hits, you are back up in hours, not days.

VPN & secure remote access

Properly configured remote access that does not create new security holes. Includes zero-trust options for higher-risk environments.

File sharing & document management

SharePoint, OneDrive, or Google Drive set up with the right permissions, folder structure, and team training for real adoption.

Cloud cost optimization

We audit and right-size your current cloud licenses. Most SMBs find 20–30% in savings within 30 days.

How it works

A clear, low-pressure process. We start with data — not a sales pitch.

1

Cloud readiness assessment

We audit your current environment: what is on-premise, what is already in the cloud, bandwidth requirements, and your security posture.

2

Migration planning

A detailed migration plan with timeline, rollback procedures, data mapping, and a zero-downtime cutover strategy.

3

Migration & configuration

We manage the full move — data, email, applications, and user accounts — coordinating every vendor involved.

4

Training & optimization

User training, documentation, and a 90-day optimization review to ensure adoption and right-size ongoing costs.

Who this is for

Cloud & Collaboration is the right fit if you match one of these profiles.

Businesses moving off legacy on-premise servers
Companies managing remote or hybrid teams
SMBs needing Microsoft 365 licensing and setup
Organizations looking to reduce IT infrastructure costs

Typical investment

Microsoft 365 from $6/user/month; migrations from $2,500

Licensing flows through us at the same or better price than direct. Migration scope depends on complexity — most SMB migrations (10–50 users) complete in 2–6 weeks.

Why Connectex vs. a single vendor

1

Right-sized for SMBs, not enterprise

Enterprise cloud setups are over-engineered and over-priced for small business. We source solutions scaled to your actual team size and growth trajectory.

2

Migration without the chaos

Cloud migrations fail when not planned properly. We coordinate the vendor, timeline, and your team to make transitions seamless.

3

Single vendor relationship

Microsoft, Google, cloud backup, and remote access — all coordinated through Connectex. One call resolves issues across your entire cloud stack.

What Is a Technology Advisor (And Why Austin SMBs Need One in 2026)
