Success stories: Chimec S.p.A relies on Utixo to migrate to Microsoft 365
We are proud to report on a new successful project by Utixo, starring Chimec S.p.A.: an Italian excellence active in more than 65 countries, specializing in the production and supply of chemical solutions for the Oil & Gas, Steel and Pharmaceutical sectors.
This collaboration further strengthens Utixo’s strategy, oriented to the delivery of high-value professional cloud services, with a special focus on Microsoft 365, increasingly chosen also by companies in the industrial sector.
A strategic transformation for a global company
Chimec relied on Utixo to address a strategic shift: to completely modernize the company’s e-mail system, providing enhanced security, business continuity and advanced collaborative tools.
The goal was clear: to migrate the entire infrastructure from Zimbra to Microsoft 365, without disruption or negative impact on daily operations, offering users a unified, always-available platform.
Microsoft 365 migration without disruption or risk
Managing a mail migration in such a structured environment requires experience, established methodologies and advanced technical knowledge. Utixo designed a gradual and transparent migration process that allowed users to use the old platform and the new one in parallel, avoiding any interruption.
This approach ensured:
Mailshield: advanced mail protection
To complete the migration, Chimec chose to further strengthen security by adopting MailShield, Utixo’s Email Security Suite As A Service, which is seamlessly integrated with Microsoft 365.
This advanced solution allows spam, phishing, malware and advanced threats to be filtered out even before they reach the mail system, providing an additional layer of protection that is critical for a company operating in high-exposure global environments.
This approach ensured:
- No data loss
- Zero downtime
- Complete business continuity
The transition was carried out in a planned and controlled manner, ensuring full operability and an optimal user experience.
