Most support contracts are designed around tickets: something breaks, someone logs it, a stranger fixes it, the meter runs. Nothing about that model makes your Microsoft estate better next month than it was last month. Synapx Business Support was designed against that grain: a named team that knows your environment, measured on improvement rather than ticket throughput.
The service covers the estate you actually run: Power Platform apps and flows, Power BI reporting, SharePoint, Dataverse and the Azure services around them. Day to day, that means incidents handled against SLAs, monitoring that catches problems before your users report them, and the steady stream of small enhancements that never quite justify a project but add up to how the business feels about its technology.
Three disciplines sit alongside the run work, and they are usually where the money is found. Training moves your people from basic competency to genuine capability, so fewer tickets get raised in the first place. Licensing optimisation strips out the waste that accumulates in any Microsoft agreement: unused licences, mismatched plans, duplicated solutions. And funding capture tracks the Microsoft incentive programmes most organisations never hear about, then claims them on your behalf.
The governance work has a track record worth naming. The Fidelis Partnership saved over £60,000 a year in data licensing costs through our governance and Centre of Excellence engagement, alongside a 30% increase in reporting capacity.
Support also comes with a seat at the table: monthly roadmap reviews, regular alignment with your Microsoft account team, and honest advice on what to build, buy or retire next. It is the difference between a supplier who keeps the lights on and a partner invested in where the estate goes.
