Use these steps to set up your Office 365 Business Essentials subscription. With this plan, you connect to Office 365 online. You don’t install the Office apps.
1. Create Office 365 accounts and add your domain
In this step, you use the Setup wizard to create Office 365 accounts for your users and add your own domain. The wizard lets you personalize everyone’s user ID and email for your business, like admin365@mondoze.com.
To start the wizard, choose Go to setup and follow this guide Office 365 Admin Set Up using Setup Wizard

2. Import email
Move your existing email and contacts from other email systems to your Office 365 mailbox so you can see it all in one place.
3. Connect email accounts
You can connect other email accounts to Outlook, too, such as your Gmail and Yahoo accounts. This lets you manage all of your email in one place. You can connect up to 5 email accounts to Outlook.
