How much is Microsoft 365
chaos costing you?

See how much oversharing, access drift, and workspace sprawl is costing your tenant. Then show your leadership exactly what you could save with a purpose-built governance tool.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to get started? And how long until I can see results?

You can get set up and start seeing results in minutes, not weeks. Connect your tenant and the first assessment surfaces your access risks, inactive workspaces, and wasted spend, sorted byseverityso you know what to fix first. No PowerShell, no scripts, no specialistrequired.

How does ShareGate Protect spot oversharing and risk access in Microsoft 365?

Protect scans your tenant and shows you exactly where content is exposed: sharing links, external guests, Anyone links, and the permissions that drifted way past what anyone intended. You see what's shared, with whom, and how risky it is, in one place instead of five admin centers.

If you use ShareGate’s new MCP server, you can even see it all by asking in your own AI tool. From there you act on it: remove risky sharing links, tighten workspace privacy, and fix issues, all within Protect or your AI tool of choice.

Want it to stay clean? Set up an automated policy that clears out links matching your rules on a recurring basis. So you can set it, and stop babysitting it.

Is ShareGate Protect read-only? Is my data safe?

Protect starts as read-only. It only reads metadata, not the contents of your files, and it's SOC 2 Type II.

When you're ready to fix things, you grant write access. Nothing changes in your tenant until you say so, and every action is previewed first and logged after.

We already have Microsoft Purview. Why do we need ShareGate?

Purview is powerful. And complex. ShareGate sits on top of your M365 environment to make governance actionable. Where Purview shows you data, ShareGate helps you fix the problem right where you find it. Think of it as the layer that makes your existing tools work harder.

How does ShareGate help govern Copilot and other AI tools connected to my Microsoft 365 tenant?

Copilot, as well as ChatGPT, Claude, or other AI tools connected to your tenant, read what they're allowed to reach. Including content that probably shouldn't be reachable.

Protect surfaces AI and Copilot access exposure indicators so you can see exactly where content is reachable before any AI tool gets to it. Then you can fix oversharing across your tenant, so every AI tool in the picture surfaces only what people are meant to see.

You get clean permissions, fewer surprises, an AI footprint your security team will actually sign off on.

Does ShareGate help with least privilege and excess permissions in Microsoft 365?

Protect tackles excess permissions in two steps: see them, then fix them.

The Permissions matrix report (coming to Protect in July 2026) maps who has access to what across SharePoint and OneDrive. It surfaces the broken inheritance and over-broad access that piles up over time.

Once you can see it, you can act on it. Trim access, tighten sharing, and move toward least privilege from inside Protect. Want to share the load? Hand decisions to workspace owners with Delegated Reviews (coming soon).

One thing Protect won't do: silently strip permissions in the background. Protect starts read-only. Remediation needs write access, which you grant when you're ready.

What size organizations is ShareGate designed for?

ShareGate scales from 100-seat companies to enterprise tenants with tens of thousands of users. If you're managing Microsoft 365 at any scale and governance is eating your time, ShareGate was built for you.

Does ShareGate help with audit and compliance reporting for Microsoft 365?

Yep! It gives you the visibility audits run on: who has access, what's shared externally, where sensitive content lives, and which workspaces went stale. Build the report you need by describing it in plain language, then export or save it.

Every remediation action gets tracked in an activity log, so you can show what changed, when, and why. Plus you can prove your governance efforts are actually working with impact metrics.

ShareGate doesn't replace your compliance program. It's the layer that shows your M365 environment is undercontrol, and backs it up when someone asks.

Which tools detect inactive, orphaned, or ownerless workspaces in Microsoft 365?

ShareGate Protect does. It flags inactive and orphaned sites, teams, , groups, and OneDrives across your tenant, attaches the cost they're quietly racking up, and lets you archive or clean them up with Microsoft 365 Archive. Set an automated policy and it keeps cleaning them up on a schedule.
