Your business in the cloud, managed properly

Microsoft 365, Azure, your website, your domains: everything your business runs in the cloud, licensed right, secured, and managed by one local team, so you get the benefits without owning the infrastructure or the complexity.

Talk cloud with us

The cloud without the clutter

The promise of the cloud is simple: your systems available anywhere, no server humming in a cupboard, and costs that scale with the size of your team. The reality, unmanaged, is licence sprawl, security settings nobody reviewed, and a different bill from every direction.

GBS manages the whole picture. We hold the licensing relationship, administer the platforms, secure the accounts, and keep the spend honest, reviewing what you're paying for against what you actually use. You get cloud as it was advertised: simple, safe and somebody else's plumbing.

And because we're the same team that runs your support, security and backups, cloud isn't another vendor. It's part of one accountable service.

What we manage

If it lives in the cloud, it can live under one roof.

Microsoft 365

Email, Teams, SharePoint and Office, licensed at the right level for each person and administered day to day: new starters, leavers, security and settings all handled.

Azure infrastructure

Servers and applications running in Microsoft's cloud instead of your comms room: built, sized and managed by us, so capability grows without hardware on your books.

Websites & domains

Website hosting, domain names and DNS managed in one place, including the records that keep your email trusted and delivering.

Identity & access

One secure login to everything, protected with multi-factor authentication and policies that follow your people rather than a building.

Licensing, kept honest

One consolidated bill, right-sized regularly. Unused licences get cut, plans match roles, and cloud spend stops drifting upward on autopilot.

Migrations

Old server to cloud, another provider to us, or tenancy tidy-ups: planned and executed so the team barely notices the ground move.

Why manage it through GBS

Cloud with someone accountable

The platforms are Microsoft's. The responsibility for how your business uses them is very much yours, and that's the part we take on.

One local team

Licensing, administration, security and support from the people who also answer your phone calls, not a marketplace and a knowledge base.

Secured by default

Multi-factor authentication, sensible access policies and monitoring set up as standard, because most cloud breaches are unlocked doors, not clever attacks.

Backed up properly

Cloud data can still be deleted, corrupted or encrypted. Our cloud services pair with real backup, so convenience never costs you your history.

Common questions

Do we still need a server if we move to the cloud?

Often no, sometimes partly. Many businesses run entirely on Microsoft 365 and cloud applications, while others keep certain workloads local for performance or software reasons. We give you an honest assessment and manage whichever mix fits.

Who owns our Microsoft 365 tenancy and data?

You do, always. GBS administers your tenancy on your behalf: licensing, security, users and configuration. If we ever parted ways, the tenancy, the licences and the data remain yours.

Can you take over our existing Microsoft 365 or Azure setup?

Yes. We review what's in place, tidy licensing (there are almost always savings), close security gaps and take over day-to-day administration. No rebuild required.

Can you host our website and manage our domains?

Yes. We host websites, manage domain names and DNS, and look after the records that keep your email delivering and your services online. One less vendor to chase.

Is the cloud secure?

The platforms are; accounts and configuration are where businesses get burnt. We secure identities with multi-factor authentication and sensible policies, and pair cloud services with proper backup, because cloud data can still be deleted or encrypted.
