Common questions
Microsoft 365 guide FAQs.
These guides are designed to provide a practical starting point. The right implementation approach still depends on your environment, risk, licensing and business priorities.
Which Microsoft 365 guide should I read first?
Start with the issue you are trying to solve. Use the Security Review Guide for an overall security assessment, the Intune Deployment Guide for device management, the Entra ID Guide for identity, or the Licensing Guide when cost and capability are the main concern.
Are the guides written for technical or business readers?
They are written to support both. Each guide explains the business decisions and risks while also covering the technical areas that IT teams and service providers need to consider.
Can these guides replace a Microsoft 365 assessment?
No. They provide practical guidance and help organisations prepare, but an assessment considers your actual tenant, configuration, users, devices, risks and operating model.
How do the guides connect to Fedelta's checklists and templates?
Guides explain the topic and key decisions. Checklists support structured review, while templates help document plans, risks, changes and implementation actions.
Can Fedelta help implement the recommendations?
Yes. Fedelta offers Discover, Optimise, Transform and Deliver engagements covering assessment, improvement planning, solution design and implementation support.
Need expert help applying the guidance?
