Cloud Services & Migration
Move to the cloud once. Move correctly.
Microsoft 365, Azure, Google Workspace, hybrid infrastructure, VDI, and immutable cloud backup — designed and operated end-to-end.
What we're solving right now
Real-world problems landing on our desk.
Not evergreen marketing copy — the conversations we're actually having with Southeast US businesses in 2025 and 2026.
GoDaddy or another reseller is gatekeeping your Microsoft 365
No admin portal access, 3–5x licensing markup, and a ticket queue to make basic changes. We migrate to a direct tenant, return full admin control, and right-size licensing — most clients save more than our migration fee in the first six months.
Microsoft 365 Copilot is launching and your data isn't ready
Copilot reads anything a user can read — including the SharePoint site shared 'with everyone' three years ago. We classify sensitive data, fix sharing posture, and stage the rollout so Copilot helps without leaking.
Azure / AWS bill doubled in 12 months and nobody can explain why
Forgotten dev VMs, unattached disks, oversized SQL tiers, and reserved-instance gaps. We run a FinOps audit, kill the waste, and lock in reserved capacity where it actually fits — typical first-quarter savings 20–40%.
Microsoft doesn't back up your tenant
Recoverable items has a 14-day window. After that, deleted mailboxes, OneDrive files, SharePoint sites, and Teams channels are gone forever. We layer immutable third-party backup with 7-year retention and quarterly restore tests.
VMware pricing tripled after Broadcom — should we move?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. We run a workload-by-workload analysis: lift to Azure, refactor to PaaS, repatriate to Hyper-V or Proxmox, or stay put. The recommendation is whatever costs less over 36 months given your actual workload, not a vendor pitch.
Hybrid work blew up your file-share governance
OneDrive sprawl, Teams channels with mystery owners, and SharePoint sites nobody can find. We design an information architecture, migrate cleanly, and put retention + DLP in place so the next three years don't recreate the mess.
Outcomes
What you actually get.
Concrete deliverables and results — not vague promises.
- Zero-downtime migrations from on-prem servers to Microsoft 365 / Azure / Google Workspace
- Immutable, geo-redundant backup that survives a ransomware event
- Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) for hybrid and remote teams
- Right-sized cloud spend — most clients see 20–40% savings after our first review
- Microsoft 365 Copilot governance — sensitivity labels, sharing audits, and Conditional Access ready before users get the license

FAQ
Common questions.
No. We use coexistence and staged cutovers so users keep working through the entire move.
Yes — many of our clients keep some workloads on-prem and run others in the cloud. We design and operate both.
Microsoft does not back up your tenant for you. We layer immutable third-party backup with 7-year retention by default.
