Business email
Professional email on your domain, configured properly.

Why it matters
Email should be treated as a business system, not a free hosting extra.
Basic hosting mailboxes can suit a small operation with simple needs. Microsoft 365 is usually stronger when a team needs shared calendars, productivity apps, larger mailboxes, identity controls or better administration. The right choice depends on how the business works—not the most expensive licence.
DigitalShift helps choose the platform, verifies the domain and configures SPF, DKIM and DMARC where supported. Migrations are planned around mailbox size, devices, forwarding, shared addresses and the risk of missing historical mail.

Prepare the change
Accounts, DNS records, backups and a cutover window are prepared before mail routing moves.
Cut over and confirm
Incoming and outgoing mail, devices and key shared functions are checked, with old access retained for the agreed period.

Boundaries
What DigitalShift will not blur.
- —Migration cost depends on mailbox size and source access
- —DNS changes can take time to propagate
- —Authentication improves trust but cannot guarantee every message reaches an inbox
- —Archiving and compliance requirements need separate assessment
Questions before buying
Straight answers about business email.
Need something specific? Email hello@digitalshift.com.au.
Can I keep my existing email address?+
Usually, yes. The address can remain the same while the underlying mailbox moves, provided the domain and account access are available.
Will email stop during a migration?+
A planned change aims to minimise interruption. Timing, DNS caching and old-server access are managed so messages can be checked across the transition.
Do I need Microsoft 365?+
Not automatically. A simpler mailbox can be appropriate for a solo business. Microsoft 365 becomes more useful when the team needs its apps, collaboration, administration or security features.
