Smooth migrations require skill.

 

Via rich coexistence, users in the cloud maintain free-busy data, single sign-on, mailbox delegation, and password synchronization with your existing on-premise Exchange & Active Directory organization.

Our experienced Cloud Architects will assess your organization's current messaging infrastructure and utilize the advanced migration tools necessary to seamlessly move your users to the Microsoft 365 platform with minimal end-user impact.

StarkContrast uses the following technologies within a typical rich coexistence migration:

  • Exchange Server

  • Tenant Co-Existence

  • Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) / Federated Authentication

  • Passwordless Authentication

  • Directory Synchronization (ADConnect)

  • Single Sign-On (SSO)

  • Password Synchronization

  • Unified Access Gateway (UAG)

  • Load balancing appliances and firewalls

  • PowerShell scripting

  • DNS

The vast majority of these deployments are what could be referred to as "act, wait, repeat" engagements. They are ill-suited for a traditional on-site engagement.

Therefore, StarkContrast offers these services securely and remotely, saving your organization considerable expense and potential delays due to travel, and change control processes, among others.

 

 

We still love on-premise.

 

For the majority of today's organizations, the largest producer of corporate data is still the Exchange environment and the thought of sharing it with a 3rd party cloud provider is something you're just not willing to do.

We understand, therefore StarkContrast will securely and remotely design, implement and migrate your environment to Exchange 2019 (Or SE soon!). 

The only thing that's changed is the how and where. No more 30-day visas for far-flung countries for implementation. We now securely and remotely reach any site in the world within seconds from the StarkContrast network operations center.

We implement the following technologies in a turnkey solution for your enterprise:

  • Complete Data Center Design

  • Active Directory

  • Passwordless Authentication

  • PKI Certificate Services

  • Exchange Server 2019 or SE (Designed by Microsoft Master trained Architect)

  • Hardware load balancers

  • Microsoft Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint.

StarkContrast works within your existing secure remote access infrastructure and you'll retain the authority to audit and/or record changes performed within your environment.
