The story in brief

A secure cloud move for a 150-year-old law firm

Gordon Garling Moffitt is a long-established regional law firm with more than 150 years of service and offices across two locations. Its IT had grown around ageing on-premises systems, and the firm needed to modernise without putting client work or sensitive information at risk.

Think Technology Australia delivered a staged migration from on-premises servers to a secure, standardised Microsoft 365 cloud environment, with consistent user and device configuration and security controls around how people and systems access information. Work was sequenced so the firm could keep operating and supporting clients throughout, and is now backed by a single managed IT and security partner.

While transitioning systems and modernising our IT environment, we were managing several significant changes at once. Think Technology Australia's support made a critical difference in how that was managed.
