Case Study: Cambridge Forums achieves secure, anywhere collaboration and up to 50% IT cost savings with Microsoft Teams

Cambridge Forums - Customer Case Study

Cambridge Forums, a Toronto-based small professional‑services firm that runs exclusive global gatherings for legal executives, was hampered by outdated on‑premises systems and legacy Office and Dynamics software that caused user lockouts during events, security gaps, and rising infrastructure costs. To modernize collaboration and remote work, they adopted Microsoft Teams as part of a broader move to Microsoft Cloud services (Azure, Office 365, Dynamics 365) with help from partner 360 Visibility.

360 Visibility migrated Cambridge Forums to cloud‑hosted Dynamics 365, rolled out Office 365 and Microsoft Teams for collaboration, and moved workloads to Azure datacentres. The change delivered anytime/anywhere access, restored admin control, stronger security and GDPR support, 99.9% uptime, and avoided new server purchases—cutting technology costs by roughly 40–50% and eliminating disruptive lockouts.
