Onboarding and offboarding

Getting started
Intelogy is the preferred Enterprise partner for Powell Teams within the UK. Our consultants will engage with your key stakeholders to discuss your classification and configure appropriately.
This is conducted mostly via a half day remote workshop but if local to London or South East, pandemic conditions allowing, can be done on-site.
If you feel you need more support Intelogy would be available for Powell Teams design and build services (see Cloud Support services).

End-of-contract data extraction
If the subscription is not renewed, the customer stops having access to the features provided by Powell (i.e: terms classification). Importantly, your data will still remain accessible in your tenancy and therefore there is no off-boarding required.
End-of-contract process
All customer data is stored on their own tenancy and therefore, if the customer does not renew Powell licenses (but retains their Office 365 tenancy) all data remains under customer control. i.e. there is no off-boarding required.
