What you get
Same Google Workspace. Considerably better crew.
You buy the identical licences Google sells. The difference is everything wrapped around them: the migration, the DNS work, the admin policies, and the person who answers when something looks wrong.
Migration handled end to end
Mail, calendars, contacts and files move across with full history and folder structure intact — in waves, out of hours, with a rollback plan we never end up needing.
Deliverability configured properly
SPF, DKIM and DMARC published, aligned and monitored — not left on p=none forever. We read the reports and tighten policy as your sending stabilises.
24/7 support from actual humans
One inbox, one number, one named account manager who already knows your domain. No tier-one script, no "have you tried a different browser".

Why buy through a reseller
Google sells licences. We deliver a working email system.
Buying direct gets you a payment form and a documentation library. Buying through Desk Harbor gets you an engineer who configures your domain, moves your history, hardens your admin console and stays reachable afterwards.

Migration from Microsoft 365, Exchange or Gmail
We map every mailbox, alias, distribution list and shared calendar before anything moves. History lands with folders, flags and read state preserved, and old aliases keep receiving throughout.
Admin console set up the right way
Organisational units matched to your real reporting lines, groups that make sense, sane sharing defaults, mobile policies, and a documented recovery path for the super-admin account.
Deliverability that survives a growth spurt
SPF kept inside the lookup limit, DKIM signing on every sending service, and DMARC moved from monitoring to enforcement once the reports are clean. Rechecked whenever you add a sending tool.
Gemini AI in Workspace, switched on sensibly
We enable Gemini for the right organisational units, brief your team on where it genuinely saves time in Gmail, Docs and Meet, and set the data-handling controls your policy needs first.
Local billing and clean invoicing
One consolidated invoice, with the tax details your finance team needs and a purchase-order reference if you use them. No foreign card charges and no renewals landing unannounced.
A dedicated account manager
A named person who knows your domain, your DNS host and your quirks. They run quarterly reviews, flag unused licences and pick up the phone when something needs escalating to Google.
How it works
Three steps from quote to calm
Most teams are fully moved within a fortnight of the first call. Larger fleets get a staged plan, but the shape is the same.
Scope the harbour
A short call to count seats, find where your mail lives today, who holds your DNS and what must keep working. You get a written plan and a quote tailored to your team.
Typically 1–2 days
Build and migrate
We provision the tenant, build your org structure, publish DNS and authentication records, then move mail and files in waves outside working hours — your team keeps sending throughout.
Typically 3–10 days
Cast off and stay supported
Cutover, a live handover for your admins, then ongoing support: onboarding starters, offboarding leavers, deliverability checks and quarterly licence reviews.
Ongoing, 24/7
Security & deliverability
Records published, policies enforced, inbox placement watched
Authentication is not a one-off checkbox. We publish it correctly, monitor the reports and tighten enforcement as your sending settles — so legitimate mail lands and spoofed mail doesn't.
SPF, DKIM & DMARC
Published, aligned and inside the DNS lookup limit, with aggregate reports reviewed monthly and policy escalated from monitoring to enforcement.
Two-step verification
Enforced across every organisational unit, with security keys for admins, sensible enrolment windows and a documented account-recovery procedure.
Data loss prevention
Rules that catch card numbers, ID numbers and confidential document patterns before they leave your domain — warn, quarantine or block, as your policy requires.
Admin controls & audit
Least-privilege admin roles, context-aware access, endpoint management for company devices, and audit logs exported wherever compliance wants them.

Client stories
What it's like on the other side of the move
We moved 118 mailboxes off Exchange over a weekend and nobody on the operations floor noticed on Monday. Fifteen years of history, all searchable. That was the whole test, and they passed it.
Rina AokiIT Director, Northline Logistics
Our quotes kept landing in spam and three agencies told us that was "just how email is". Desk Harbor rebuilt our SPF, signed everything with DKIM and got DMARC to enforcement. Replies recovered inside a month.
Daniel MwangiHead of Revenue, Calderworks
I emailed at two in the morning expecting an auto-reply and got an engineer who had already looked at our DNS. We've gone from nine seats to sixty-four and never once been told to raise a ticket.

Questions
Answers before you ask
It depends on your plan, seat count and commitment term. Request a quote and we'll share pricing tailored to your team size, usually within one business day.
Quotes are itemised, include onboarding and migration, and carry no hidden setup charges. If a different mix of plans across your organisation would serve you better, we'll say so.
No. We sync your existing mailboxes into Google Workspace before touching your MX records, then run a final delta sync at cutover to catch anything that arrived in between.
Folders, attachments, read state, calendars and contacts all come across, and your old system stays reachable read-only for an agreed period afterwards as a safety net.
Yes — identical licences, identical features, the same Google infrastructure and admin console. Desk Harbor is an authorized reseller, not a vendor of a lookalike product.
What changes is who configures it and who you call. The account is fully yours — you can transfer it away from us at any time without losing data or migrating again.
It's one of the most common reasons teams come to us. We audit your DNS, consolidate overlapping SPF includes, enable DKIM on every service that sends as your domain, and publish a DMARC record we then actually monitor.
Where reputation is already damaged we set out a warm-up plan and review reports with you until placement stabilises. We'll run the audit standalone even if you're already on Workspace.
Small teams are often live within a week. We need access to your DNS host, a list of users and aliases, and admin access to your current mail platform if history is coming across.
We send a short checklist after the scoping call so nothing gets chased twice, and we're happy to work alongside your existing IT provider.
Everything from adding a starter to chasing an escalation with Google: account creation and offboarding, alias and group changes, device issues, shared drive permissions, phishing investigations and DNS changes when you adopt a new tool.
Support is around the clock by email and phone with no per-incident charge, and your account manager runs a quarterly review covering licence usage and security posture.
