Managed email & collaboration

Managed email and collaboration

Your email, calendar and files on infrastructure you control, with hosting, updates, backups and support managed by OpsHelp.

UK/EU infrastructure · Migration handled · No lock-in

Only need an email security review? You can keep Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 or your existing provider. Security assurance covers email controls without requiring a migration.

Why move

Why move from Google or Microsoft

Some organisations need more control over email costs, data location and day-to-day management.

Reasons to consider a move

Per-user costs grow as you add people and tiers. Provider terms, data location and the effort needed to move later also matter. For some organisations, UK/EU data residency is a requirement.

What you get instead

Control over where your mail and files live, predictable cost and someone to look after it. Self-hosting requires ongoing maintenance, backups and delivery monitoring. That management is part of the service.

What is included

Email, files and ongoing management

Mailcow for email, calendar and contacts. Nextcloud for files where you need them. Hosting, deliverability and backups handled as standard.

Email, calendar and contacts (Mailcow)

Mailboxes, shared calendars and contacts on your own domain, available on every device.

Files and collaboration (Nextcloud)

Shared files, sync and simple collaboration alongside your email.

Managed UK/EU infrastructure

Hosting, updates and backups, with tenancy, data location and access specified in your quote. Dedicated infrastructure is an explicit option, not assumed on every tier.

Email deliverability

SPF, DKIM, DMARC and PTR set up correctly, with blacklist monitoring and spam filtering, so your mail behaves the way it should.

Migration process

A planned, tested email migration

A planned migration, tested before anyone moves, with your working day protected throughout.

The audit is always free
  1. Audit

    [free]

    We review your current setup, domains, mailbox sizes and DNS, then explain what moving involves. No pressure to proceed.

  2. Build and test

    [no rush]

    We stand up your new platform, configure deliverability, and test it properly before anyone moves. Nothing goes live until it works.

  3. Cutover

    [planned]

    We migrate mail, calendars, contacts and files with minimal disruption, usually out of hours, so your working day carries on as normal.

  4. Looked after

    [ongoing]

    Backups, monitoring, updates and support. If something breaks, we fix it.

Deliverability and backups

Delivery monitoring and recovery

Inbox placement cannot be guaranteed. We configure and monitor deliverability and keep tested backups ready when you need to restore mail.
