Why most MSPs struggle with Microsoft 365 security and management 

 

  • One “365 guru” — everyone else improvises

  • Inconsistent tenant configurations across clients (because every engineer does it differently)

  • No single, standardised Microsoft 365 baseline for your team to follow

  • Reactive firefighting instead of proactive security and management

  • Difficult to onboard new engineers into your Microsoft 365 way of working

  • Prospects asking harder questions about security, compliance, BYOD, and device standards

  • Hard to explain what you do to clients - no proof, no deliverables, no clear process

  • Losing deals to MSPs who appear more mature, organised, and security-focused

 

Enroll your MSP (Founding Cohort)

One standard. Confident engineers. Clear proof for your clients.

 

Most MSPs don’t struggle because of bad engineers - they struggle because every engineer does Microsoft 365 differently. This program gives your entire team one proven system for securing and managing Microsoft 365, complete with baselines, runbooks, training, assessments, and client-ready documentation. The result: consistent tenant setups, fewer incidents, faster onboarding, and a clear, professional way to show clients the value of your work.
