Better value than buying direct

Google Workspace, fully managed
A sheltered home for your company’s email and files
Base Cove sets up, migrates and looks after your Google Workspace domain — licensing, mailboxes, DNS, deliverability and admin policy — so your team lands in calm water on day one and stays there.

Why teams anchor here
The same Google Workspace, with a crew that actually answers
Buying licences direct gets you software. Buying through Base Cove gets you the software plus the people who configure it, migrate it, protect it and pick up the phone when something looks odd.
Expert migration, no lost mail
Mail, calendars, contacts and shared drives moved from Microsoft 365, IMAP or another Gmail tenant, in staged batches with dual delivery so nothing bounces at cutover.
Deliverability configured properly
SPF, DKIM and DMARC published and validated on your domain, with alignment monitoring and a reporting inbox. Invoices, alerts and outreach land where they should.
24/7 support from real engineers
One inbox, one escalation path, no tier-one script reading. Median first response is under fifteen minutes, and your named account manager already knows how your domain is built.
Google Workspace editions
Pick the harbour that fits your fleet
Every edition below is genuine Google Workspace, provisioned on your own domain. What changes between them is storage, meeting capacity, security tooling and admin control. We help you land on the right one — and move you up or down as the team changes.

Why buy through a reseller
The licence is the easy part. Everything around it is the work.
Base Cove is an authorized reseller, which means we hold the partner relationship and you get the whole implementation — not a licence key and a link to a help centre.
Migration from Microsoft 365 or another Gmail tenant
We inventory every mailbox, shared calendar, distribution list and file share first, then move them in batches with pre-agreed cutover windows. Exchange Online, on-premises Exchange, IMAP hosts and existing Workspace tenants are all in scope, archives and delegated access included.
Admin console configured to your org chart
Organisational units mapped to teams, group aliases for shared inboxes, sensible sharing defaults, mobile device policy and delegated admin roles. You get a documented build, not a default tenant that someone will have to unpick in two years.
Deliverability that survives the cutover
SPF flattened to stay within lookup limits, DKIM keys published and rotated, DMARC moved carefully from monitor to enforcement while we watch aggregate reports. If you send marketing or transactional mail from other tools, we align those too.
Gemini AI in Workspace, rolled out responsibly
We enable Gemini features where they help — drafting in Gmail, summarising long threads, first-pass documents — with clear data-handling guidance and admin control over access. Pilot with one team, then widen once people trust it.
Local billing and clean invoicing
One consolidated invoice from Base Cove with your own reference codes, cost-centre splits and a billing contact who is not a support form. Add or remove seats mid-term and the next invoice reflects it without a support ticket.
A dedicated account manager who knows your build
Named, reachable and briefed on your environment. They run your quarterly review, flag licence drift before renewal, and coordinate engineers when something needs escalating to Google. No queue, no re-explaining your setup every time.
How it works
Three steps from open water to a sheltered cove
Most teams are fully migrated within two weeks of the kickoff call. Larger or more complex domains get a phased plan with dates agreed up front.
Scoping call
Tell us your headcount, current mail provider, domains and any compliance requirements. We map the edition mix and send a written quote with a migration plan attached.
Build & migrate
We provision the tenant, configure the admin console, publish DNS and move mail in batches with dual delivery. Your team keeps working while data lands in the background.
Cutover & care
MX flips at an agreed low-traffic hour, we verify deliverability end to end, run short onboarding sessions, then stay on as your support desk and account team.
Security & deliverability
Protected on the way out, and on the way in
A cove only shelters you if the walls are actually there. We treat authentication, access and data controls as part of the build — configured before go-live, then monitored.
-
SPF, DKIM and DMARC, verified
Records published on your domain, alignment tested from every sending source, then DMARC stepped up to enforcement once aggregate reports are clean.
-
Two-factor enforced by policy
2FA switched on across the organisation with security keys for admins, enrolment grace periods for staff, and recovery paths that do not depend on one person’s phone.
-
Data loss prevention rules
Content rules that stop card numbers, identity documents and confidential file types leaving the organisation by mail or shared link — with warn-and-log mode first so nobody is blindsided.
-
Admin controls and audit trail
Least-privilege admin roles, session length limits, app access allow-lists and exportable audit logs, so you can answer a security questionnaire without a scramble.

What clients say
Teams that moved and stopped worrying about email
We moved 140 mailboxes off Microsoft 365 over one weekend and Monday morning was completely unremarkable — which is exactly what I wanted. The migration plan was written down before anyone touched a record, and every batch landed when they said it would.
Priya NandakumarHead of IT, Harborline Logistics
Our invoices had been quietly landing in spam for months and nobody could tell me why. Base Cove rebuilt our SPF, published DKIM and walked DMARC up to enforcement. Payment chasing dropped off a cliff within a fortnight.
Tomas BrennerFinance Director, Kestrel Labs
What sold me was the account manager. We have hit two genuinely awkward problems since go-live and both times I messaged one person who already understood our setup. No ticket triage, no explaining our org units again from scratch.

Questions
Answers before you commit
The things teams ask us most often on the first call. If yours is not here, write to us and a real engineer will reply.
Still deciding?
Send your headcount and current mail provider and we will come back with a written recommendation and a migration outline.
Ask a questionRequest a quote and we will share pricing tailored to your team size, chosen edition and contract term. Because we are an authorized reseller we can usually structure it more favourably than buying direct, and the quote always shows migration and onboarding work separately so you can see exactly what you are getting.
No. We copy rather than move: your existing mailboxes stay intact and readable throughout, while we sync historical mail, calendars and contacts into Workspace in batches. Dual delivery runs during the transition so messages reach both systems, and the MX cutover happens at an agreed low-traffic hour with us watching queues live.
If anything looks wrong after cutover, the old environment is still there as a fallback until you sign off on the migration.
Yes — every address stays exactly as it is. We verify domain ownership, publish the required DNS records and recreate your aliases, distribution groups and shared inboxes on the new tenant. Multiple domains and secondary domains are supported on a single Workspace account, and we can bring across catch-all and forwarding rules too.
Most teams under 200 seats are fully live within five to twelve working days of the kickoff call, and the disruptive part — the MX cutover — is a matter of minutes. Larger organisations, multiple domains, heavy archives or regulated environments get a phased plan with dates agreed before anything starts.
You will have a written runbook listing every step, who owns it and when it happens.
A 24/7 desk staffed by engineers who work on Workspace all day, plus a named account manager who knows your build. Median first response is under fifteen minutes. We handle user provisioning, admin console changes, deliverability issues, device policy and anything that needs escalating to Google on your behalf.
Every account also gets a quarterly review covering licence usage, security posture and anything worth changing before renewal.
Yes. Add or remove seats as the team changes and move users between editions when their needs shift — a single domain can run mixed editions, so your compliance team can sit on a higher tier than everyone else. Just message your account manager; there is no support form and no re-signing.
Ahead of every renewal we send a usage audit showing dormant accounts and over-provisioned tiers, so you renew on what you actually use.
