Microsoft Alliance
Since 2001, AvePoint and Microsoft have helped organizations get more from the Microsoft Cloud. Our expanded strategic partnership brings the governance, security, resilience, and control enterprises need to scale Microsoft Copilot, Agent 365, Copilot Studio, and Microsoft Foundry with confidence.
By the Numbers
Give Every Agent an Owner
Microsoft Agent 365 provides a common control plane for your agents. AvePoint's AgentPulse adds the business context that turns visibility into accountability.
- Map every agent built in Copilot Studio and Microsoft Foundry to a business use case, department and accountable owner.
- Route attestations and remediation to the business teams that own each agent, not just IT.
- Enforce recertification and retire unused agents to eliminate dead cost and reduce your attack surface.
Build a Data Foundation Copilot Can Trust
Microsoft Purview provides native data protection. AvePoint complements it with automated governance that keeps Microsoft 365 data clean, right-sized and ready for AI.
- Find and fix oversharing and sensitive permissions before Copilot surfaces the wrong content.
- Identify and purge redundant, obsolete, and trivial (ROT) data so agents deliver high-quality outputs.
- Apply consistent policies across data, workspaces, and agents to strengthen auditability and compliance.
Recover Fast When It Matters Most
Microsoft 365 Backup Storage delivers speed at scale. As a Microsoft launch partner, AvePoint adds prioritized recovery for the systems your business and your AI depend on.
- Back up and restore Microsoft 365 data at speed with Cloud Backup Express, built on Microsoft 365 Backup Storage.
- Prioritize recovery of critical Microsoft 365 workloads, identities, and infrastructure.
- Back up and recover Copilot Studio agents, a first-to-market capability.
Know What AI Costs, and What It's Worth
Microsoft provides native usage and licensing insights. AvePoint turns them into a CFO and leadership view of your AI investment.
- Track Copilot license usage, agent activity and consumption trends to build a CFO-ready picture of AI spending.
- Manage Microsoft 365 storage costs by archiving inactive data and disposing of what you no longer need.
- Understand the true investment of agentic AI and the value it provides.
AI Trust, Earned In-House
We're Customer Zero for Microsoft AI, scaling Copilot across our global workforce before we help you scale it. Every lesson goes into our products.
Trusted by Microsoft. Proven with Partners.
“Realizing AI’s business value at scale requires organizations to pair innovation with security, governance, and accountability.
