Before you choose

Microsoft 365 questions, answered.

What is Microsoft 365, and is it the same as Office 365?

Microsoft 365 combines familiar Office apps with cloud services such as OneDrive and, in selected plans, business email and collaboration tools. Many former Office 365 business plans now use Microsoft 365 names. The exact features depend on the subscription.

Which Microsoft 365 plan is right for my business?

Choose Business Basic for web and mobile work, Business Standard for installed desktop apps, or Business Premium when you also need advanced security and device management. Apps for business suits teams that need desktop apps and storage without Exchange email hosting. Your user count, existing email setup and security requirements should guide the choice.

Is Microsoft Teams included in every package?

No. Microsoft offers both with-Teams and without-Teams versions of business subscriptions. Apps for business does not include Teams. Ask for the exact subscription variant in your quotation; a separate Teams licence may be needed.

Can I use my own business email domain?

Business Basic, Standard and Premium include Exchange business email, allowing addresses such as yourname@yourcompany.co.zw after domain verification and DNS configuration. Apps for business includes the Outlook app, but not Exchange email hosting.

Can Microsoft 365 work without an internet connection?

The installed desktop apps included in Standard, Premium and Apps for business can work offline with locally available files. You still need periodic internet access for subscription validation and updates. Cloud syncing, web apps, email delivery and online meetings require connectivity.

Are Microsoft 365 Copilot, Project and Visio included?

Do not assume they are included. Microsoft 365 Copilot requires a separate licence and an eligible base subscription. Project and Visio have separate licensing options; limited web capabilities may be available with some plans. Request any of these explicitly in your quotation.

What if our organisation needs more than 300 users?

Microsoft 365 Business plans support up to 300 users. Larger organisations should review enterprise options such as Microsoft 365 E3 or E5. Microsoft also offers frontline, education, nonprofit and home plans with different features and eligibility requirements.

Can you move our email from Gmail or cPanel to Microsoft 365?

Yes. IMT Solutions plans the migration of existing mailboxes, contacts and calendars to Exchange Online, updates your domain records and schedules the switch-over to keep disruption low.

Do you support Microsoft 365 customers outside Harare?

Yes. Most setup and support work is done remotely, so we can help organisations across Zimbabwe. On-site visits can be arranged as part of your quotation.

How do I get a Microsoft 365 quotation in Zimbabwe?

Use the Request a quotation button and tell us your number of users, preferred plan and whether you need email migration, setup, training or ongoing support. We reply by your chosen contact method: email, WhatsApp or phone.
