Seepath Solutions

What is a Microsoft Direct CSP and why does it matter?

A Direct Bill Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) purchases Microsoft licences directly from Microsoft, with no intermediary distributor. Seepath has held Direct CSP status since 2014, which means you get accurate Microsoft pricing, faster provisioning, a single point of contact for billing and support, and access to Microsoft-funded migration programmes that indirect resellers cannot offer.

What Azure managed services does Seepath provide?

Seepath provides end-to-end Azure management including 24/7 infrastructure monitoring, cost optimisation, security and compliance governance, backup and disaster recovery, Virtual Desktop (AVD) deployment, and ongoing patching. We act as your dedicated Azure team, handling the day-to-day so your in-house staff can focus on the work that drives your business forward.

How long does a cloud migration to Azure typically take?

Timelines vary by complexity, but most small-to-midsize migrations complete within 4-12 weeks. A straightforward lift-and-shift of a few servers can take as little as 2-4 weeks; larger workloads with application modernisation or data migration typically run 2-3 months. Every engagement starts with a no-cost Azure assessment to give you an accurate scope and timeline before any work begins.

What is Microsoft Copilot and how can it help my business?

Microsoft 365 Copilot is an AI assistant embedded directly into Word, Excel, Teams, Outlook, and other Microsoft 365 apps. It uses large language models combined with your organisation's own data to draft documents, summarise meetings, analyse spreadsheets, and automate repetitive tasks. Businesses that have deployed Copilot with Seepath typically see 30-40% gains in knowledge-worker productivity within the first 90 days.

Can Seepath help reduce our Microsoft 365 and Azure spend?

Yes. As a Direct CSP we audit your existing licences and Azure resources to identify redundant spend, right-size virtual machines, and consolidate subscriptions. Clients routinely reduce their Microsoft cloud spend by 15-35% after a Seepath licence and cost review, often enough to offset the managed-services fee entirely.

What Microsoft licences and software can Seepath supply?

Through our Direct CSP agreement we supply the full Microsoft catalogue: Microsoft 365 (Business and Enterprise), Azure subscriptions, Windows Server, SQL Server, Dynamics 365, Business Central, Power Platform, and Microsoft 365 Copilot add-ons. All licences are billed monthly with no long-term commitments required, and you have a single invoice for everything.

How do I get started? Is there an assessment or discovery process?

Every engagement starts with a complimentary discovery call and, where applicable, a Microsoft-funded assessment (Azure Well-Architected Review, Copilot Readiness Assessment, or Security Assessment). These are at no cost to you and produce a written report with prioritised recommendations. From there we build a roadmap and only proceed when you are comfortable with the plan and commercial terms.
