Our 4-step methodology

Every Google Workspace deployment follows a proven process that ensures a smooth transition with zero business interruption.

1. Audit and scoping

We analyze your existing environment: email, storage, collaboration tools, directory, security. This audit identifies technical dependencies, data volumes to migrate and specific needs per department. You receive a detailed migration plan with a precise timeline.

2. Data migration

Our team migrates all your data: emails (complete history), contacts, calendars, shared files and folder structures. Migration runs in the background with no service interruption. Your team continues working normally throughout the entire operation.

3. Team training

We train your staff by role: management, administrative, sales, technical. Each session is tailored to real-world usage for the role. Our training covers Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Meet, Chat and Gemini AI features. Training materials included.

4. Ongoing technical support

After deployment, our team remains available for tier 1 and 2 support. We handle user additions, license changes, security configurations and environment updates. Guaranteed response time within 4 business hours.

Google Workspace plans

Google Workspace offers four plans suited to every business size. As a certified reseller, LCMH advises you on the best fit for your needs.

Our recommendation: Business Standard offers the best value for most SMBs thanks to shared drives and 2 TB storage. Business Plus is recommended for companies with legal archiving requirements (Vault) or needing advanced mobile device management.

Google Workspace vs Microsoft 365: an honest comparison

Choosing between Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 is one of the most common decisions European businesses face. Both platforms are mature, reliable and feature-rich. The right choice depends on your team’s work style, existing infrastructure and priorities. Here is a factual comparison across key criteria.

Where Microsoft 365 excels: organizations deeply invested in Active Directory, companies requiring full-featured desktop applications (advanced Excel macros, complex PowerPoint animations), and environments with heavy SharePoint customization.

Where Google Workspace excels: teams that prioritize real-time browser-based collaboration, businesses seeking predictable costs without add-on licensing, and organizations that want AI capabilities included from day one rather than as a paid extra.

LCMH helps you make this decision objectively. We audit your current environment and recommend the platform that genuinely fits your needs — even when that means staying on Microsoft.

Gemini AI: artificial intelligence powering your productivity

Gemini for Google Workspace is not a bolt-on feature — it is a generative AI engine woven into every application you use daily. Unlike competing solutions that charge a separate per-user fee, Gemini is included in every Google Workspace plan, making AI accessible to your entire organization from day one. The technology draws on Google’s large language models to understand context, generate content and automate repetitive work across Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides and Meet.

Real-world use cases your teams will adopt immediately

In Gmail, Gemini drafts complete email replies by analyzing the full conversation thread, summarizes 30-message chains into three bullet points, and suggests contextual responses that match your writing tone. Sales teams report cutting email handling time by 40% within the first month. In Google Docs, you describe what you need in plain English — “write a project status report for Q1 covering budget, timeline and risks” — and Gemini produces a structured first draft in seconds. It rewrites paragraphs for clarity, translates between 40+ languages, and generates meeting minutes from raw notes. Sheets becomes accessible to non-technical staff: ask “show me monthly revenue by region as a bar chart” and Gemini creates the formula, pivot table and visualization automatically. Finance teams save an estimated 5 hours per week on reporting tasks alone.

Slides transforms a text brief into a complete presentation with layout, imagery and speaker notes. A 15-slide customer pitch deck that previously took half a day now takes under 10 minutes to draft. Google Meet transcribes meetings in real time, generates summaries with action items assigned to participants, and provides simultaneous translation in 15+ languages — eliminating the need for dedicated note-takers in international calls.

Measurable ROI for your business

Organizations deploying Gemini across their workforce consistently report concrete productivity gains. Email composition time drops by 40% on complex replies. Meeting follow-ups become automatic — Gemini generates structured notes with action items the moment a Meet call ends, saving 30 minutes per meeting. Data analysis in Sheets shifts from a specialist skill to something any team member can perform using natural language queries. Sales teams produce first-draft pitch decks in under 5 minutes instead of 2 hours. New hires reach full productivity twice as fast thanks to contextual AI assistance that guides them through unfamiliar tools and processes. For a 50-person company, these gains translate to an estimated 200+ hours saved per month — the equivalent of adding a full-time employee at zero additional headcount cost.

Gemini is included in all Google Workspace plans. Advanced features (Gemini Premium with Ultra models, NotebookLM Plus) are available as add-ons or included in the Enterprise plan.

Advanced Google Workspace services

Beyond the office suite, Google Workspace includes powerful tools to automate your processes and strengthen your security.

AppSheet: no-code business applications

Build custom mobile and web applications without writing a single line of code. AppSheet connects directly to your Google Sheets and Drive data to generate fully functional apps in hours rather than months. Common use cases include field service tracking with GPS and photo capture, inventory management with barcode scanning, expense approval workflows, and customer visit reports that sync automatically to shared drives. The visual editor lets business users — not just developers — create and iterate on applications, dramatically reducing IT backlog. Included in Business Standard and above.

Apps Script: advanced automation

Automate your business processes with Apps Script, the scripting language built into Google Workspace. Examples: automatic invoice generation from Sheets, personalized reminders, synchronization with third-party tools (CRM, ERP). LCMH develops custom scripts for your needs.

Google Vault: archiving and legal compliance

Vault provides enterprise-grade data governance for organizations subject to regulatory requirements. It covers Gmail, Drive, Chat and Meet with granular retention policies — you define how long each data type is preserved, from 30 days to indefinitely. When legal proceedings arise, place targeted holds on specific users or organizational units to prevent data deletion. The built-in search engine lets compliance officers query across millions of messages using date ranges, participants and keywords, then export results in standard formats for legal review. Vault audit logs track every search and export action, providing a defensible chain of custody. Available from Business Plus.

Endpoint Management

Secure your employees’ mobile devices and laptops from the admin console. Apply security policies (screen lock, encryption), remotely wipe lost devices and control access to company data. Advanced management available from Business Plus.

Migration from Microsoft 365

Migrating from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace is the most common transition we handle, and after 150+ successful projects, we have refined every step of the process. Whether you are running Exchange Online, a hybrid Exchange setup, or a full Microsoft 365 E3/E5 environment with SharePoint and Teams, LCMH manages the entire migration from initial scoping to final DNS cutover. The goal is simple: your team wakes up one morning on Google Workspace with all their data intact and no lost productivity.

What we migrate

• Exchange emails: complete history including nested folders, sorting rules, server-side signatures and shared mailboxes
• Contacts and calendars: all Outlook contacts, distribution lists, calendar events and recurring meeting series
• OneDrive and SharePoint: files, folder structures, sharing permissions and metadata
• Teams → Chat/Spaces: conversation history, channels and file attachments

Our 5-step M365 migration approach

Step 1 — Inventory and risk assessment. We map your entire Microsoft environment: number of mailboxes, total data volume (we have migrated environments exceeding 5 TB), third-party integrations (CRM connectors, Power Automate flows, custom SharePoint apps), and Active Directory dependencies. This inventory produces a risk matrix and a realistic timeline — no surprises mid-migration.

Step 2 — Coexistence configuration. Both systems run in parallel. We configure dual mail routing so emails reach both Exchange and Gmail simultaneously. Calendar free/busy lookup works across platforms. Users can test Google Workspace at their own pace while Microsoft 365 remains fully operational. This phase typically lasts 1–2 weeks.

Step 3 — Batch migration by department. We transfer data progressively — starting with a pilot group of 5–10 power users, then expanding department by department. Each batch runs overnight to minimize bandwidth impact. Our tooling handles delta synchronization, so emails received during migration are not lost.

Step 4 — Validation with key users. Before each department goes live, designated validators confirm that emails, files and calendar events transferred correctly. We provide a checklist covering folder structure, attachment integrity, sharing permissions and signature rendering.

Step 5 — Cutover and decommission. MX records are updated to point to Google. We monitor mail flow for 48 hours to catch any routing anomalies. Microsoft 365 licenses are downgraded or cancelled once the retention period expires. DNS propagation is verified across all regions.

Why migrate from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace?

• Native collaboration: real-time simultaneous editing without version conflicts — no more “locked for editing by another user” messages
• Unified interface: a single web interface, no desktop client to install, patch or troubleshoot across hundreds of machines
• Controlled costs: no Windows Server CALs, Exchange Server licenses or SharePoint infrastructure to maintain on-premises
• Cloud-native security: Google infrastructure with end-to-end encryption, zero trust architecture and automatic threat detection
• Gemini AI included: AI assistant in every application at no extra cost, versus a paid Copilot add-on for Microsoft 365

Average timeline: 1 to 3 weeks depending on data volume and number of users. Zero service interruption guaranteed.
