OST helps small businesses and non-profits across Rhode Island move to the cloud and run there with confidence — email, files, and applications available wherever your team works, set up and managed so the technology stays out of your way.
The Cloud Is Only an Advantage When It Is Managed Well
Moving to the cloud can lower costs, improve flexibility, and make remote work simple — but only when it is planned and managed properly. A rushed migration or an unmanaged environment creates new problems instead of solving old ones. We plan the move around how your business actually works, handle the migration, and manage the environment afterward.
What We Help You Move and Manage
Our cloud services cover the systems a small business depends on every day:
- Microsoft 365 — email, Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive
- Secure file storage and sharing
- Cloud-hosted business applications
- Secure remote access for staff working off-site
- User accounts, licensing, and access management
- Backup of your cloud data
Migrations Without the Disruption
A cloud migration should not cost you days of downtime. We plan the move in stages, schedule the cutover around your business hours, test before and after, and stay hands-on through the transition — so your team keeps working while the move happens behind the scenes.
Keeping Your Cloud Secure
The cloud does not secure itself. We protect your environment with multi-factor authentication, access controls, security monitoring, and proper Microsoft 365 security configuration — and we back up your cloud data, because platforms like Microsoft 365 do not fully back it up for you.
