Overview
3TImpex Consulting is a consulting firm focused on delivering practical business solutions to its clients. As the business grew, the team needed a more efficient and cost-effective way to work, communicate, and manage documents across the organisation.
The company was looking for a productivity platform that would not only reduce software costs but also support collaboration, improve accessibility to work resources, and provide tools that were easy for the team to use. That need led 3TImpex Consulting to Microsoft 365.
With support from Cloudsa Africa, the company was able to move away from a less efficient setup and adopt a more connected digital working environment that better supported day-to-day operations.
The Business Challenge
The previous platform had become expensive for the business, creating cost concerns.
Much of the team’s work was still done offline, which made collaboration more difficult and slowed down teamwork.
Sharing documents, editing files together, and working collectively on the same materials was not as easy as it needed to be.
The business needed a more user-friendly and flexible solution that could better support modern work both inside and outside the office.
“One of the main reasons we moved to Microsoft was cost. Our previous provider was billing us a lot, so we started looking for an application that would better serve our needs and also be more cost-effective.” – Caleb Afuwape, Lead Consultant, 3T Impex
The Solution: Microsoft 365 with Cloudsa Africa
After evaluating their options, 3TImpex Consulting chose to migrate to Microsoft 365, with Cloudsa managing the full transition. Microsoft 365 offered the right combination of familiar tools, cloud-native infrastructure, and an accessible price point that aligned with the firm’s budget.
Cloudsa handled the end-to-end migration, working closely with the 3TImpex team to ensure a smooth transfer of all work documents to the cloud. The Cloudsa team demonstrated flexibility throughout the process, including availability outside standard office hours, which proved critical in completing the migration on schedule.

The Results That Followed
1. Improved Collaboration Across the Team
One of the biggest improvements after the switch was the ability for team members to work together more easily on shared documents. Moving files online made collaboration faster and more seamless, allowing the team to edit documents together and contribute in real time.
2. Greater Flexibility and Accessibility
With documents now available online, the team could access their work outside the office environment and continue working from their phones or other devices when needed. This made daily work more convenient and gave employees more flexibility in how they got things done.
3. A More Cost-Effective Platform
Cost was one of the main reasons behind the move, and Microsoft provided a more affordable option compared to the previous provider. For 3TImpex Consulting, this meant the business could reduce software-related costs while still gaining access to the tools it needed.
4. A Simpler User Experience
The team also benefited from a platform that was easier to use and better aligned with the practical needs of the business. This made adoption smoother and helped employees get more value from the tools available to them.
Looking Ahead
Caleb Afuwape brought prior experience with Microsoft tools from his time in the banking sector, which gave him confidence in the platform from the outset. However, access to a trusted migration partner like Cloudsa made all the difference in executing a complex transition smoothly.
With a cloud-first foundation now in place, 3TImpex Consulting is better positioned to scale its operations, onboard new team members with ease, and deliver an even higher standard of service to clients.
“Now, seeing the value they bring, I would definitely recommend Cloudsa Africa to individuals and organisations that need these kinds of services.” – Caleb Afuwape, Lead Consultant, 3T Impex
