BEE Analyst
How BEE Analyst moved highly sensitive data to the cloud securely, and helped their people get confident with Microsoft 365.
Highly sensitive data, on systems that had to be replaced.
BEE Analyst works with companies across South Africa to analyse and improve their Black Economic Empowerment rating, handling critical data every day. Protecting it is non-negotiable.
“Our consultants are working with highly sensitive information, and we need to be able to prove to our assets, our investors, that we’ve done everything in our power to secure the information.”Annalize Visser, Director
After many years in business, the company was running legacy systems that needed replacing to keep that data secure.
“One of the main objectives when we approached Solid Systems was getting off-premises.”Rudolf Kruger, Senior IT and Project Manager
They also wanted to adopt Microsoft 365 tools such as SharePoint and Microsoft Teams across the company, which brought challenges of its own.
“Myself and some of my colleagues are fossils, and fossils don’t change easily. We’re used to talking to each other via emails, and now all of a sudden you’re introduced to a new chat platform like Microsoft Teams and people aren’t used to it.”Annalize Visser, Director
A secure migration, and training that made the tools stick.
The focus wasn’t only moving critical data to the cloud and making it securely accessible to the right people. It was helping the team understand the value of the tools themselves, and training with Microsoft certified professionals was invaluable.
“The targeted training, admin training, the sessions that we had with Solid Systems, those were perfect.”Rudolf Kruger, Senior IT and Project Manager
Because the training is easy to repeat, BEE Analyst can bring new hires up to speed on their systems, and on how platforms like SharePoint support the business’s security.
Since moving to Solid Systems, BEE Analyst are able to:
- Get guidance and support on their Microsoft 365 journey
- Collaborate effectively across apps like Microsoft Teams
- Run Microsoft training sessions with certified IT pros
- Manage access to sensitive information precisely
- Back up their data to cloud storage securely and automatically
- Access a broad range of skills and expertise
“The best thing about working with Solid Systems was the professionalism that stood out. The communication was on point, and the professionalism was perfect.”

With the dedication of BEE Analyst’s consultants, their internal IT team and Solid Systems’ IT pros, the migration of critical data to the cloud has been a success. The business now operates with peace of mind that its data is secure, backed up and recoverable.
