Cloud Services: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Hosted Servers
Planning, migration, licensing, and ongoing management for Greater Sacramento businesses that want the cloud to work as dependably as everything else we manage.
A clear path to the cloud
From the first planning conversation to day-to-day administration, we manage the whole move.
LNI Business Technology Management helps small and mid-sized businesses across Greater Sacramento plan, migrate to, and manage cloud platforms. We assist with planning, migrations, licensing, configuration, and ongoing support for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environments, so the transition happens on a schedule that works for your team and your data stays protected along the way.
Cloud platforms work best inside a well-managed environment. As part of our Managed IT Services, we keep accounts, licenses, and settings maintained long after the migration is complete, and we pair every cloud setup with the right backup and disaster recovery plan for your business. Cloud is one part of the full range of services we provide to keep your technology running securely and efficiently.
Platforms we support
Whether your business runs on Microsoft, Google, or its own servers, we support the platform that fits how you work.
Microsoft 365
Hosting and support for SharePoint, OneDrive, hosted email, and Office applications. We handle planning, licensing, configuration, and ongoing administration so your team's files, email, and documents stay organized and available.
Google Workspace
Email and applications on Google's platform. For businesses that prefer Google's tools, we plan, migrate, configure, and support Google Workspace environments with the same attention we bring to every managed client.
Locally Managed or Hosted Servers
Some workloads run best on a server your business controls. We support locally managed and hosted servers, and we determine the right fit for each organization through an assessment of your existing infrastructure.
Licensing that fits
Cloud licensing changes over time, and those changes can affect what you pay each month. We watch it so you don't have to.
When licensing terms shift, many providers simply pass the new costs along. We take a different approach: we review what changed, compare the options available to your organization, and recommend the licensing that fits your business and budget.
A real example from a nonprofit onboarding
While onboarding a nonprofit organization that had transitioned from another IT provider, we identified unexpected Microsoft licensing changes that significantly increased their costs. Rather than simply passing those costs along, we worked directly with Microsoft and Pax8 to explore every available nonprofit licensing option, and we reduced our own monthly service fees to help offset the increase. Our goal was to ensure the organization received the technology it needed while staying within budget.
Ready for remote and hybrid work
Your team should be able to work securely wherever the day takes them.
We help businesses securely support employees working from the office, at home, or in the field using modern cloud technologies and secure remote access solutions. Files, email, and applications stay available to the people who need them, with the safeguards your business expects.
Because we manage the environment end to end, remote access is set up with security in mind from the start, and your team has one experienced local partner to call when a question comes up.
