Clients' experience of the Microsoft 365 Health Check comes down to two things: a full picture and a prioritised to-do list in under a week, without doing the research themselves. Below, the Chief Operating Officer of Vihreä Älyenergia describes in his own words how the review went and what happened afterwards.
All examples are real engagements. Named client stories are published with the client's permission and in wording they have approved. In the anonymised examples the figures are rounded so that the organisation cannot be identified.
Client story
Vihreä Älyenergia: a Microsoft 365 security to-do list in under a week, without doing the research themselves
A full picture of Microsoft 365 security and licensing in under a week from receiving access
A prioritised to-do list that now guides the company's remediation work
A licence tier upgrade planned without a significant increase in cost
"The health check made my own work a lot easier. I no longer have to dig up every issue myself; I now have a clear list of what we need to do."
One licence tier for everyone cost a professional organisation with several hundred users 180,000 € a year too much
Every user had the same license tier regardless of what they used. People on long parental leave, field workers and shared mailboxes cost the same as the CFO. When licenses were matched to actual use, the bill dropped by 15,000 € per month. The work started with a fifteen-minute phone call.
Anonymised example · Identity
less than halfof sign-ins passed through the MFA policy
Group of over 500 people with its own IT department: multi-factor authentication was "on"
MFA was in use and trusted. The review showed that less than half of sign-ins passed through the policy that actually requires it. Access control consisted of dozens of individual rules added over the years, whose combined effect nobody had checked. Several admin-level accounts had no MFA at all, there were around ten permanent global admins, and several partners had delegated admin rights to the environment. All of it was fixable with the existing licenses.
