Assessments & Reviews

Productivity Suite Review

Is your investment in productivity technology driving real transformation, or just creating complexity? Our Productivity Suite Review is a strategic assessment designed to answer that question. We go beyond a simple technical audit to evaluate how your people, applications, and devices interact with your core platform. We provide a clear, actionable roadmap to modernise, simplify, and significantly reduce costs across your entire workplace.

We help you see the bigger picture. Our review delivers a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis and a clear Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) model for strategic change, empowering you to make confident, data-driven decisions that deliver measurable results.

A holistic assessment of your digital workplace

Our review provides a 360-degree view of your environment, focusing on opportunities to modernise and optimise. We conduct a deep analysis of key areas, including:

  • Applications and workflows: Identifying legacy applications that can be replaced or integrated, streamlining processes and reducing software licensing costs.

  • Device strategy and management: Evaluating your current device fleet and management approach to identify more cost-effective and secure endpoint strategies.

  • Knowledge sharing and collaboration: Assessing how your teams use the available tools to share information and collaborate, uncovering opportunities to break down silos and improve efficiency.

  • Security and data governance: Analysing your configuration and policies against industry best practices to identify and mitigate security risks.

Unlocking pathways to modernisation

A key outcome of our review is a clear roadmap for transformation. Based on our findings, we can help you explore powerful modernisation initiatives:

  • Expert productivity suite migrations: Our review may identify a compelling business case for changing platforms or consolidating multiple tenants. We provide expert, end-to-end migration services to manage this transition, whether you’re moving from Microsoft to Google, consolidating environments after a merger, or migrating from legacy on-premise systems. Our proven methodology ensures a seamless transition with minimal disruption.

  • Application modernisation: Our review often identifies opportunities to retire expensive legacy systems in favour of modern, cloud-native solutions. We can help you plan and execute this transition through our Application Modernisation services.

  • Hybrid environments and ChromeOS pilots: For organisations with diverse user needs, we can model the significant cost savings of a hybrid environment. This can involve running a Chrome Pilot to demonstrate the security and management benefits of moving specific user groups to cost-effective Chromebooks.

What sets us apart

  • Proven, multi-million dollar impact

    We don't just talk about theory; we deliver tangible results. For a major New Zealand government agency, our review identified potential cost savings of millions of dollars by proposing a strategic shift to a hybrid work model. We bring this same commercial focus and rigour to every engagement.

  • Expertise in complex, hybrid environments

    Our strength lies in our ability to see beyond a single vendor. We are independent specialists with deep expertise in both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, allowing us to design, validate, and execute complex hybrid solutions and migrations.

  • From data to a definitive business case

    We translate our technical findings into a compelling business case that resonates with executive leadership. We provide not just a list of recommendations, but a prioritised, actionable plan complete with TCO and ROI analysis to justify your investment decisions.
