Why teams moor here

Everything Google gives you, plus the part Google doesn't.

Buying licences is the easy bit. The hard bit is the migration weekend, the DNS records, the offboarding checklist and the person who picks up when something breaks at 6am. That is the work we take off your desk.

Better value than buying direct

Reseller agreements let us bundle onboarding, migration and ongoing admin support into the licence relationship — so you get real hands-on help rather than a self-serve checkout and a help centre article.

Migration handled by engineers

We move mail, calendars, contacts and shared drives from Microsoft 365, Exchange, cPanel or an older Gmail tenant — with folder structure, permissions and delegate access carried across intact.

Deliverability configured properly

SPF, DKIM and DMARC published and validated for every sending domain and subdomain, with alignment checked against your CRM, invoicing tool and marketing platform before we sign off.

24/7 support from real people

Reach a named account manager and a support desk that answers around the clock. No ticket lottery, no bot loop — the same team that built your tenant is the team that troubleshoots it.

Mixed estate? You can run different editions side by side in the same tenant — support staff on Starter, leadership on Plus. Ask us to model it.

Why buy through a reseller

The licence is the same. The landing is not.

Anyone can put a card into a checkout page. What changes the outcome is who configures the tenant, who moves the data, and who is accountable when a mail flow rule quietly starts bouncing invoices.

Sheltered from day one

Every Hub Cove tenant ships with a documented baseline: naming conventions, organisational units, sharing defaults, retention rules and an offboarding runbook your team actually keeps.

Migration from Microsoft 365, Exchange or legacy Gmail

We audit your current estate first — mailbox sizes, shared mailboxes, distribution lists, public folders, calendar delegations — then run a staged migration with a pilot group before the full cutover. Mail history, folder trees and calendar invitations come across, and we keep both systems coexisting until the last user signs off.

Admin console set up the way it should be

Organisational units that match your real reporting lines, groups that survive a reorg, sharing and external-access defaults chosen deliberately, mobile device policies, and Drive permissions that stop confidential folders leaking into "anyone with the link". You get the console documented, not just handed over.

Deliverability that keeps you out of spam

SPF flattened and kept under the lookup limit, DKIM keys generated and published, DMARC moved from monitoring to enforcement on a schedule you can see. We validate alignment for every third-party sender — CRM, helpdesk, billing, newsletter — and hand you a report showing what passes and what needed fixing.

Gemini AI in Workspace, enabled responsibly

Gemini can draft replies in Gmail, summarise long threads, build first-draft docs and take notes in Meet. We turn it on for the right organisational units, brief your team on what it should and should not be fed, and align the rollout with your data handling policy so nobody has to guess.

Local billing and clean invoicing

One consolidated invoice in your own currency and format, with the tax details your finance team needs and purchase-order references where you use them. Add or remove seats mid-term and it reconciles on the next statement — no card-on-file surprises, no chasing receipts through a self-serve portal.

A dedicated account manager who knows your setup

Not a queue. A named person who has your tenant diagram open, remembers that your finance team uses a shared mailbox, and can pull in an engineer without you re-explaining the history. Quarterly reviews cover licence utilisation, security posture and anything Google has changed since last time.

How it works

Three steps from open water to safe harbour.

Most teams are fully moved within two weeks. Larger estates run longer, but the shape is always the same: understand, migrate, look after.

Discovery and quote

A short call to map headcount, current provider, domains, shared mailboxes and anything unusual — a legacy CRM that sends mail, a subsidiary on its own domain, a compliance rule you inherited. You get a written recommendation and a tailored quote, with no obligation attached.

Typically 2 working days

Migration and configuration

We provision the tenant, build the organisational structure, publish DNS and authentication records, then migrate a pilot group before the full cutover. Users keep working throughout; the switch itself usually lands over a weekend with mail flowing to both systems until it is confirmed clean.

Usually 1 to 2 weeks

Support and ongoing care

Your account manager stays on. We onboard new starters, offboard leavers with data transferred, watch DMARC reports, adjust licences as you grow, and hold a quarterly review covering utilisation, security posture and new Workspace capabilities worth adopting.

For as long as you stay

Security, deliverability & support

Protected on every side, watched around the clock.

A cove works because of what it keeps out. We harden your tenant to a documented baseline on day one, then keep monitoring it — because configuration drift is what actually causes incidents.

SPF, DKIM & DMARC

Authentication records published, validated and monitored. We take DMARC from none to quarantine to reject on a controlled schedule, reading the aggregate reports at each stage so legitimate senders never get caught.

2-step verification enforced

Multi-factor enforced across the organisation with security keys or passkeys for admins and anyone handling payments. Enrolment is staged with grace periods, so you get the protection without a support queue on Monday morning.

Data loss prevention

Rules that spot card numbers, identity documents and confidential file patterns before they leave the building — in Gmail, in Drive shares and on Chat. Warnings for the grey areas, hard blocks for the rest, tuned to your industry.

Admin controls & audit

Least-privilege admin roles, alerting on suspicious sign-ins and forwarding rules, device management for phones and laptops, and audit logs retained so an investigation starts with evidence rather than guesswork.

Support runs 24 hours a day, every day, with a named account manager during business hours and an on-call engineer outside them. Critical mail-flow incidents are picked up in minutes, not business days — and we escalate into Google on your behalf when it belongs there.

In their words

Teams that stopped worrying about email.

We moved 140 mailboxes off Microsoft 365 over one weekend and nobody on the floor noticed on Monday except that search got faster. Hub Cove ran the pilot group properly, which is the bit our last provider skipped.
Dana Merrow Head of IT, Northbay Logistics
Our invoices were landing in spam and we had no idea why. They flattened our SPF record, fixed DKIM on two tools we had forgotten about, and walked DMARC up to enforcement over six weeks. Reply rates recovered within a month.
Rohan Ellery-Ash Operations Director, Tidewell Health
What sold us was the offboarding runbook. When a designer left mid-project, their Drive files transferred cleanly and the shared mailbox stayed intact. We used to lose a day to that every single time.
Simone Falk Studio Manager, Fernwood Studio

Questions

Things teams ask before they move.

Still unsure?

Send us your domain and rough headcount and we will come back with a plain-English recommendation — including the case where staying put is the right answer.

Request a quote
Request a quote and we will share pricing tailored to your team size, chosen edition and commitment term. Because the right edition depends on storage needs, compliance obligations and how many people genuinely need advanced features, a single headline figure would be misleading. We put the recommendation in writing with the reasoning attached, so you can compare it against buying direct or against another partner.
No. We run a coexistence period where both the old and new systems receive mail, migrate historical data in the background, then flip the MX records at a quiet time — usually a Friday evening. Users keep working the whole way through. If anything looks wrong after the switch, mail is still retrievable from the source system, so there is always a way back.
Yes — it is our most common migration. We bring across mail with folder structure, calendars including recurring events and room bookings, contacts, and OneDrive or SharePoint content into Drive and shared drives. Distribution lists become Google Groups, shared mailboxes are rebuilt as delegated accounts or groups, and we map permissions rather than dumping everything into one folder. We also document what does not have a direct equivalent, so there are no surprises later.
You get the identical Google Workspace product and full admin console access — it is your tenant, and you own it. The difference is that Hub Cove handles licensing, billing and first-line support, and escalates into Google on your behalf when an issue genuinely needs their engineering team. You can move away from us and keep the tenant if you ever want to; nothing is locked behind us.
We start with an audit of every system that sends mail using your domain, then publish a correct SPF record within the DNS lookup limit, enable DKIM signing with a strong key, and introduce DMARC in monitoring mode. We read the aggregate reports, fix the senders that fail alignment, and only then move the policy to quarantine and reject. You get a before-and-after report, plus ongoing monitoring so a new marketing tool cannot quietly break it.
Yes. Add seats at any time and they are active the same day. Removals are handled at your renewal point under the terms of your agreement, and we always transfer a leaver's Drive files and mail to the right colleague before the account is suspended. Your account manager reviews licence utilisation each quarter so you are not carrying seats nobody uses.
