Microsoft 365 by GlobalMSP - Your Microsoft CSP partner in South Africa

The Microsoft partner that doesn't just sell the licence. We run it.

GlobalMSP is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) partner that licenses, deploys, secures and supports Microsoft 365 for South African businesses. Every licence, user and setting in one tenant, managed by a local team that works in Microsoft 365 every day.

The problem

Most Microsoft 365 tenants are paid for, not managed.

Seats stay assigned to people who left. Business Premium features sit switched off. Security settings were never tightened, and the person who set it all up moved on years ago. A reseller sells you the subscription and walks away. GlobalMSP licenses Microsoft 365, then deploys, secures and supports what you pay for.

Our products


Ready to get started?


Microsoft 365 by GlobalMSP: licensed, secured, supported.

As a Microsoft CSP partner, we give you one point of contact for everything Microsoft 365: licensing, deployment, security and support.

We start with a full tenant review. Every subscription, licence and user, what you pay for, what is assigned and what nobody uses, plus your Microsoft Secure Score and the configuration gaps that matter.

Then we right-size your plans, migrate and secure your environment, and support it with a South African helpdesk that knows your tenant. Monthly CSP billing flexes with your headcount, and your data stays in Microsoft's South African data centres.

The Microsoft 365 stack we manage

Everything your people log into. One partner.

Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Intune, Defender and Entra ID, licensed, configured, secured and supported by the same South African team.

Microsoft licensing (CSP)

Business Basic, Standard and Premium, or E3 and E5, matched to what each user needs. Unused seats reclaimed, one invoice and one renewal conversation.

Productivity and collaboration

Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive, set up with a structure your people can actually find things in.

Security, identity and devices

Entra ID, MFA, Conditional Access and Defender configured to Microsoft’s security baseline, with laptops and phones managed through Intune.

Copilot readiness

Permissions, data labelling and licensing sorted before Copilot goes live, so AI only sees what it should.

Our promise

The tenant review is the deliverable.

Not an opinion, a plan. Every licence, every user, every security gap and the cost of each change, written up before you sign anything. One team. One SLA. Full accountability.

Our methodology

From neglected to protected.

We review every licence, user and setting, plus your Microsoft Secure Score.

We review licences, usage and Secure Score with you every quarter.

Why choose GlobalMSP as your Microsoft partner?

Licences from one reseller, support from someone else and security from nobody in particular. When something breaks, everyone points at Microsoft. GlobalMSP licenses, deploys, secures and supports your Microsoft 365 under one agreement, so one partner owns the outcome.

Licences that match your headcount.

Leavers keep paid licences for months while new starters wait for access. Not with us. Joiners and leavers are handled for you, unused and duplicate seats are reclaimed, and CSP billing flexes monthly with your team. You pay for what your people actually use.

Secured beyond the defaults.

Microsoft 365 is only as secure as its configuration. We set up MFA for everyone, Conditional Access, protected admin accounts, Defender and Intune device policies, then monitor and review them every quarter. Add Vault by GlobalMSP to back up the data itself.

The difference

A Microsoft partner that runs it, not just resells it.

A licence-only reseller sells you the subscription once, leaves security on defaults and tells you to log a ticket with Microsoft. As your managed Microsoft partner, we review licensing against real usage, configure and monitor security, and give you a South African helpdesk that knows your tenant.

Why businesses choose GlobalMSP for Microsoft 365

Because one partner licenses it, secures it and supports it, with local engineers who work in Microsoft 365 every day.

One accountable partner

One Microsoft partner. Not a stack of vendors.

Microsoft 365 is where your business works. GlobalMSP protects it and keeps it running alongside your cybersecurity, backup, connectivity and voice. One team, one SLA and one number to call. We own the ticket until it is fixed.

Straight answers

Microsoft 365 questions, answered.

Can you take over our existing Microsoft 365 licences?

Yes. Moving your licences to GlobalMSP is a commercial transfer through the Microsoft CSP programme, not a migration. Your tenant, users, email and files stay exactly where they are. We usually time it with your next renewal so nothing overlaps.

Which Microsoft 365 plan do we actually need?

Most South African SMEs land on Business Standard or Business Premium. Premium adds Intune, Defender and Conditional Access, which is where most of the security value sits. We review each role and recommend per user, rather than putting everyone on the same plan.

Is our Microsoft 365 data stored in South Africa?

Microsoft 365 tenants set up for South African organisations store core customer data in Microsoft's South African data centres. We confirm your tenant's data location as part of the review, which supports your POPIA obligations.

Doesn't Microsoft back up our data?

Microsoft keeps the service running, but under its Shared Responsibility Model your data is your responsibility. Deleted or encrypted data can be lost for good. That is why we pair Microsoft 365 with Vault by GlobalMSP.

Can you migrate us from Google Workspace or on-premise Exchange?

Yes. We migrate mailboxes, calendars, contacts and files from Google Workspace, on-premise Exchange and other Microsoft 365 tenants. Every migration is planned, tested first and cut over after hours.

Are we ready for Microsoft Copilot?

Copilot can see everything a user has access to, so permissions and data labelling need to be in order first. We check sharing, permissions and licensing before Copilot is switched on.

What does Microsoft 365 support include?

Day-to-day helpdesk for Microsoft 365, user setup and removal, licence changes, security monitoring and a quarterly review of your tenant, all under one SLA with GlobalMSP.
