Exchange Online: Business Email

Short answer: Exchange Online is Microsoft's email, calendar and contacts service only; it does not include the Office apps, Teams or OneDrive. It is not the same thing as Microsoft 365. If the team needs business email, Exchange Online is enough instead of the full suite. SMB Teknoloji chooses the plan, supplies the licences, migrates your old email without loss and sets up email security for your domain.

How it differs from Microsoft 365

FeatureExchange OnlineMicrosoft 365 (Business Standard as example)
Email, calendar, contactsYesYes
OutlookWeb and mobile; desktop Outlook not included (can connect with an existing Office licence)Desktop, web and mobile
Word, Excel, PowerPointNoDesktop, web and mobile
Teams, SharePoint, OneDriveNoYes
Best forStaff who only use email, field teamsOffice teams working with files and meetings

Plan 1 or Plan 2?

  • Exchange Online Plan 1: 50 GB mailbox per user, online archive, spam and phishing protection (Exchange Online Protection). Enough for most businesses.
  • Exchange Online Plan 2: 100 GB mailbox, auto-expanding archive, data loss prevention (DLP) and litigation hold. For teams with legal retention duties or heavy correspondence.

Figures are as of October 2026; current limits are in Microsoft's service description. Plans can be mixed per user with Microsoft 365 plans.

Migration

  • Source: Gmail / Google Workspace, cPanel and hosting mail (IMAP), a legacy Exchange server or another Microsoft tenant
  • Emails, folders, calendars and contacts are migrated; attachments and dates are preserved
  • No downtime: old mail is copied in the background first, the MX record is switched outside working hours and the final delta is taken in a second pass; nothing arriving on the day is lost
  • Outlook and phones are connected to the new account; staff receive a one-page guide

Domain and delivery security

  • SPF, DKIM and DMARC records: your mail does not land in spam folders and nobody can send fake mail in your company's name
  • Monitoring of DMARC reports and a gradual move from monitoring to enforcement
  • Phishing and malicious-attachment filters, quarantine rules, a warning tag on external mail
  • Secure sending for web forms, printers and applications (application permission or connector)

Shared mailboxes

Shared mailboxes such as info@, accounts@ or support@ need no licence up to 50 GB; access is granted per person. A leaver's mailbox is converted into a shared mailbox so no correspondence is lost.

What is not included

Desktop Office apps and file sharing are not part of this service; if needed it is combined with Microsoft 365. Our article Microsoft 365 or Exchange Online? explains which one fits.

02 Atakum

How this work runs in Atakum

The most common request from businesses in Atakum: email sits with the hosting company, mailboxes are full and outgoing mail lands in the recipient's spam folder. The move to Exchange Online is done remotely; the MX record changes outside working hours and in the morning everyone opens their new mailbox with the same address. The process is the same for our customers outside Atakum and abroad.

03 FAQ

Frequently asked in Atakum

Is Exchange Online the same as Microsoft 365?

No. Exchange Online is the email, calendar and contacts service only; Microsoft 365 adds the Office apps, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive. For staff who only use email, Exchange Online is enough.

Is any email lost during the migration?

No. Old mail is copied in the background first, the MX record is switched outside working hours and the final delta is taken in a second pass; mail arriving on the day also lands in the new mailbox.

Why does our mail end up in spam folders?

Usually because SPF, DKIM and DMARC records are missing or wrong on the domain. We set them up with the migration and move gradually to enforcement while monitoring the DMARC reports.
