How Calligo delivers trusted Microsoft 365 governance with ShareGate Protect
A real-world look at Microsoft 365 governance across client environments. Clearer assessments. Confident recommendations. Governance that scales.

Microsoft 365 governance is hard to maintain over time.
Signals are scattered across admin centers. Ownership changes constantly. Oversharing grows quietly. And AI surfaces anything employees can access.
In this chat, Microsoft MVP Richard Harbridge sits down with Mark Thomas and Mark Herridge from Calligo to explore how they manage Microsoft 365 governance on an ongoing basis. By bringing the right signals into one place, they’re able to move faster, communicate decisions more clearly, and support governance in a way that scales without relying on custom tooling.
Whether you’re responsible for governing your own environment or supporting others, you’ll see how Calligo approaches Microsoft 365 governance using ShareGate Protect.
In this session, we'll cover:
- The governance challenges that prompted Calligo to rethink their approach
- Why they chose ShareGate Protect and how they rolled it out
- What changed after, from day-to-day governance to risk visibility
