DENVER, CO – May 5, 2025 — T2M Works today released findings demonstrating that organizations fully leveraging their Microsoft 365 stack can eliminate up to 40–60% of redundant SaaS tools traditionally bundled by legacy MSPs.  

Many MSPs rely on third-party platforms like Kaseya, piling additional licensing costs onto customers even when Microsoft 365 already provides equivalent or superior capabilities. T2M Works’ Microsoft-first approach consolidates device management, identity, security, collaboration, and automation under a single ecosystem—resulting in fewer tools, reduced vendor sprawl, and significantly lower operational overhead. 

Industry research validates this direction. Gartner reports that 74% of mid-market organizations are actively consolidating security and management tools to reduce complexity, while Forrester’s 2024 Cost Optimization Study shows that companies adopting a unified Microsoft stack save 18–22% annually by eliminating redundant endpoint, monitoring, and patching products. Meanwhile, legacy MSPs tied to platforms like Kaseya require parallel systems for RMM, security, backup, ticketing, and identity—creating a costly patchwork of tools that rarely integrate cleanly. This “integration tax,” as IDC terms it, wastes time, increases risk, and slows down operational maturity. 

T2M Works’ Microsoft-first model eliminates this tax by aligning all operational workflows with the existing licensing customers already own. By standardizing on Entra ID, Intune, Defender XDR, SharePoint, and the Power Platform, organizations gain a cohesive foundation ready for AI-driven automation and agentic computing. Legacy MSPs cannot deliver these outcomes, as their architecture is built on fragmented third-party systems that were never designed to support real-time automation. T2M Works positions Modern MSP as the only scalable path forward for organizations expecting to gain full value from AI over the next decade.
