Is Google Workspace Holding Your Business Back?
Many businesses in Austin, TX started on Google Workspace because it was simple, fast, and inexpensive. But as teams grow, compliance pressures rise, and collaboration becomes more complex, Google Workspace can start to feel like a patchwork of disconnected tools.
That’s why companies are moving to Microsoft 365 in 2025.
This isn’t just about switching email platforms. It’s about giving your business the structure, security, and scalability needed to operate efficiently and grow confidently.
At CTTS, we help CEOs and IT decision-makers across Central Texas make this transition smoothly, so they can focus on running their business, not wrestling with their tech stack.

✅ Security That Meets Compliance Standards
From law firms to healthcare providers, Microsoft 365 provides built-in compliance tools like MFA, DLP, and Purview to meet GDPR, HIPAA, and other regulations.
✅ Familiar Tools = Faster Adoption
Your team already knows Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint—so adoption is fast and resistance is low.
