GODADDY MICROSOFT 365

Leave GoDaddy. Keep every mailbox.

Your Microsoft 365 tenant already belongs to you. GoDaddy just stands in front of it. We run the documented release, move your licensing to a Microsoft partner you can actually call, and lock the tenant down on day one. Same tenant. Same domain. Same email.

THE PROBLEM

Your tenant is yours. GoDaddy holds the keys.

When you buy Microsoft 365 through GoDaddy, your tenant is federated. Sign-in, admin, and licensing all run through GoDaddy's layer instead of straight to Microsoft. Most teams live with it until one of three things forces the question.

THE ADMIN CENTER

You see their dashboard, not Microsoft's

The admin tile opens a GoDaddy portal. The setting your team needs is often one it does not expose.

THE CATALOG

You can only buy what GoDaddy sells

Business Premium, Defender, Copilot. If the license the job needs is not on their plan list, you are stuck.

THE CONTROLS

Security runs through someone else's front door

Sign-in policies, MFA, and admin roles are harder to own when a reseller layer sits between you and your tenant.

Microsoft points admins to GoDaddy's own move-away guide as the supported path. See Microsoft's defederation page.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Same data. Different control.

Federation is a layer in front of your tenant, not a feature of it. Removing it changes who you work with, not where your email lives.

THE MOVE: AIM ONPOINT™

Three phases. Five steps. The order is the safety net.

Done in the right order, your team keeps working and the only visible change is a new sign-in page.

Same tenant, same email, new partner: Snapshot, Release, Re-license, Harden
ACQUIRE
01

Snapshot

We inventory your licenses, admin accounts, DNS records, and every GoDaddy add-on in your mail path.

02

Clear the mail path

If GoDaddy's Advanced Email Security filters your mail, we repoint MX records to Microsoft first so mail never stops.

INTEGRATE
03

Release

You make one call to GoDaddy, and we prep you for it. GoDaddy releases the tenant and resets admin passwords. We restore clean admin access right away.

04

Re-license

GoDaddy licenses do not transfer. New Microsoft licenses go live through us, mapped seat by seat and timed so nobody is left unlicensed.

MAXIMIZE
05

Harden and support

MFA, sign-in policies, admin role cleanup, and a written summary of what changed. Then a team that answers when you call.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Leaving GoDaddy, answered

Will this move or delete our email?

No. GoDaddy's own guide says the domain stays associated with your tenant. Mailboxes, files, and Teams stay exactly where they are.

What happens to our GoDaddy licenses?

They end. GoDaddy plans do not transfer, so you buy new licenses from your new partner. We stage yours so nobody is left unlicensed.

Do our users have to do anything?

Set a new password. GoDaddy resets admin passwords during the release and its sign-in page stops working, so everyone signs in at Microsoft directly afterward.

Can we buy Microsoft licenses now to get ahead?

No. GoDaddy warns that buying mailboxes elsewhere before the move creates a second tenant that cannot be merged with yours. We order at the right moment.

What about GoDaddy add-ons?

Add-ons such as Email Backup are removed during the move, and archiving has its own steps. We price any replacement before you commit.

Can we go back to GoDaddy later?

No. GoDaddy states the move is one-way. That is why we plan it before anyone picks up the phone.
