Get More from Microsoft 365. Without the Complexity.

Microsoft 365 is much more than email and office software. It's the foundation for how businesses communicate, collaborate, manage information, and increasingly use artificial intelligence to improve productivity.

Hudson Technology provides comprehensive Microsoft 365 managed services for businesses in Toronto, across the Greater Toronto Area, and throughout Canada.

From licensing and deployment to security, backup, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and AI-powered automation, we help organizations get more value from their Microsoft investment.

As an authorized Microsoft 365 reseller and experienced Managed IT Services Provider (MSP), Hudson combines practical technical expertise, responsive support, and enterprise-grade cybersecurity to make Microsoft 365 work for your business.

Complete Microsoft 365
Management, Security & Support

Microsoft 365 offers a powerful suite of business applications, but managing licensing, users, security, data, and new AI capabilities can quickly become complicated.

Hudson takes care of the technology so your employees can focus on their work.

Whether you're migrating to Microsoft 365, managing an established environment, or introducing Microsoft Copilot, Hudson provides the expertise and ongoing support to help you operate securely and efficiently.

Hudson’s Microsoft 365 Services

Microsoft 365
Deployment & Migration

Moving to Microsoft 365 or modernizing an existing environment? Hudson manages deployment, configuration, and migration planning to help organizations transition to Microsoft 365 while minimizing disruption. We help configure Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, identity management, and access controls to create a secure, properly managed environment.

Microsoft 365
Administration & Technical Support

Keep Microsoft 365 running smoothly without adding to your internal IT workload. Hudson provides ongoing administration, troubleshooting, user management, and technical support across Microsoft 365 applications and services. Our support is backed by Hudson's experienced Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 technical resources, with 24/7 emergency coverage.

Microsoft Teams,
SharePoint & OneDrive Management

Help your employees communicate, collaborate, and share information securely. Hudson manages Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive environments, helping organizations establish consistent permissions, improve document management, and support productive remote and hybrid work. We help ensure collaboration tools are configured to support both productivity and appropriate control over business information

Microsoft 365
Security& Identity Protection

Your Microsoft 365 environment contains sensitive business communications, documents, and customer information. Hudson helps protect that information through identity and access management, multi-factor authentication, advanced email protection, security monitoring, and appropriate configuration of Microsoft 365 security controls. As both an MSP and MSSP, Hudson can integrate Microsoft 365 security with your broader cybersecurity strategy.

Microsoft 365
Backup & Recovery

Microsoft 365 includes native recovery and retention features, but these may not satisfy every organization's requirements for independent backup and long-term data protection. Hudson's HT Backup for Microsoft 365 provides automated backup and recovery for Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams data. We help organizations protect against accidental deletion, ransomware, malicious activity, and other data loss events.

Microsoft 365
Compliance & Data Governance

Managing business information requires appropriate controls over who can access it, how it is shared, and how long it is retained. Hudson helps organizations configure access policies, retention settings, audit logging, and other Microsoft 365 governance controls. Our approach supports operational requirements, security best practices, and applicable regulatory obligations without introducing unnecessary complexity.

Microsoft 365  Licensing & Cost Optimization

Are you paying for Microsoft licenses and services your employees don't need? Hudson helps organizations select, purchase, and manage Microsoft 365 subscriptions. We review your existing licenses, identify opportunities to reduce unnecessary spending, and ensure users have access to the tools they need.

Our services include licensing procurement, subscription administration, user provisioning, and ongoing optimization as your business evolves.

Every Microsoft environment is different. These three hypothetical examples illustrate how license optimization, improved Azure management and a properly structured agreement could affect Canadian organizations of different sizes.
