The company, at a glance
Quick answer
AvePoint is a leading data-management, data-security and data-resilience company \u2014 founded in 2001, headquartered in Jersey City (USA), NASDAQ-listed (ticker AVPT), with 28,000+ customers worldwide and deep Microsoft-ecosystem heritage \u2014 that helps organisations protect, govern, secure and manage their data across SaaS platforms like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce and Dynamics 365. Its thesis: as organisations run on SaaS (especially Microsoft 365), they need to manage that data properly \u2014 back it up (SaaS providers don't, under the shared-responsibility model), govern it (M365 sprawls without control), secure its access (permissions sprawl invisibly), migrate it reliably (M&A, cloud adoption), and manage its records lifecycle (retention, compliant disposal) \u2014 and AvePoint provides a comprehensive platform to do all of this. That platform is the AvePoint Confidence Platform, organised into three suites: Resilience (protect and recover \u2014 Cloud Backup for SaaS backup, and Opus for records/information lifecycle); Control (govern and secure \u2014 Cloud Governance for M365 governance/lifecycle, and Insights for access-risk analytics); and Modernization (migrate and adopt \u2014 Fly for cloud/SaaS migration). So rather than a patchwork of point tools, AvePoint offers one platform to protect, govern, secure, migrate and manage SaaS data \u2014 with especially deep Microsoft 365 expertise. As a NASDAQ-listed, 28,000+-customer, proven data-management leader, AvePoint is a trusted partner for comprehensive SaaS data management, especially for Microsoft-centric organisations. TechBag scopes, licenses and supports AvePoint's platform in INR/GST for Indian organisations.
Five intel pages. One Confidence Platform.
The complete AvePoint Confidence Platform — every linked card is a full intel page, from SaaS backup to M365 governance, access-risk, migration and records management.
AvePoint Cloud Backup
Back up your M365, Google & Salesforce data.
Automated, independent backup of your SaaS data \u2014 Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Dynamics 365 \u2014 with immutable (ransomware-resilient) and bring-your-own-storage options, and fast, granular, point-in-time recovery. Because SaaS providers DON'T back up your data (shared responsibility). Fulfils your data-protection responsibility. Deep M365 coverage.
AvePoint Cloud Governance
Control M365 sprawl \u2014 creation to retirement.
Microsoft 365 governance \u2014 control how Teams, sites and Groups are created (governed provisioning: naming, metadata, approval, auto-config), accessed (ownership, access reviews, guest control) and retired (lifecycle: review, archive, delete). So M365 stays organised, secure and compliant instead of sprawling into chaos. Governed self-service: agility with control.
AvePoint Insights
See (and fix) who can access your M365 data.
Microsoft 365 access-risk and security analytics \u2014 discover who can access what, find over-exposed sensitive data, detect over-sharing and risky external sharing, and remediate at scale (bulk/automated). Because M365 permissions sprawl until no one knows who can access what \u2014 and you can't secure what you can't see. Complements Cloud Governance (find+fix vs prevent).
AvePoint Fly
Migrate cloud data reliably & faithfully.
Cloud/SaaS migration \u2014 move data into, between and across Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and Power Platform, with high fidelity (structure, metadata, permissions preserved), at scale. Handles cloud adoption, tenant-to-tenant (M&A) and cross-platform migrations, Azure-hosted, as a managed project. From a vendor that's run some of the largest M365 migrations.
AvePoint Opus
Govern your information lifecycle.
Records management and information lifecycle \u2014 classify, retain (keep required records), defensibly dispose (delete what you shouldn't keep, per DPDP's storage limit), support legal holds and audits, and archive \u2014 across M365 and beyond. Because records must be kept as required, and keeping everything forever is a liability. Compliant, defensible, automated at scale.
EnPower, Cense & MyHub (Control)
Platform & engineMore of AvePoint's Control suite \u2014 EnPower (M365 & Power Platform delegated administration), Cense (SaaS/M365 license & cost management), and MyHub (an end-user workspace hub) \u2014 extending M365 administration, cost control and user experience.
tyGraph, Confide & AvePoint Elements
Platform & engineAdditional AvePoint offerings \u2014 tyGraph (M365 adoption/usage analytics), Confide (secure collaboration/virtual data rooms), and AvePoint Elements (the MSP multi-tenant management platform) \u2014 broadening the platform for analytics, secure collaboration and managed services.
Why “one comprehensive, M365-deep platform” is the whole story
SaaS data must be protected, governed, secured, migrated and managed — yet most organisations use a patchwork of point tools. AvePoint bet on one comprehensive, M365-deep data-management platform— a comprehensive SaaS data-management platform (protect, govern, secure, migrate, records) with deep Microsoft 365 expertise, from a NASDAQ-listed leader doubled down on it.
Resilience (Cloud Backup, Opus)
Protect and recover your SaaS data (Cloud Backup \u2014 independent, ransomware-resilient backup for M365/Google/Salesforce), and manage its records lifecycle (Opus \u2014 classify, retain, defensibly dispose). Your data, protected and properly kept.
Control (Cloud Governance, Insights)
Govern M365 (Cloud Governance \u2014 control creation, access and lifecycle, prevent sprawl) and secure its access (Insights \u2014 find and fix over-exposed data and access risk). Prevent problems AND remediate them: complete M365 control.
Modernization (Fly)
Migrate and modernise (Fly \u2014 reliable, high-fidelity migration into, between and across M365, Google and Power Platform, incl. M&A tenant-to-tenant and cross-platform). Move to and reshape your cloud estate, faithfully.
Microsoft 365 Depth
Deep Microsoft-ecosystem expertise runs through everything \u2014 AvePoint has long led Microsoft 365 data management, so its M365 coverage (backup, governance, access, migration, records) is thorough and expert. Since most data lives in M365, this depth matters.
One Platform, Not Point Tools
The Confidence Platform unifies protect, govern, secure, migrate and manage \u2014 so you get comprehensive SaaS data management from one vendor and platform, coherently, rather than a patchwork of point tools. Comprehensive, integrated, from a listed leader.
Start with the need — protect (Cloud Backup), govern (Cloud Governance), secure (Insights), migrate (Fly) or records (Opus) — one Confidence Platform.

Five pitfalls that cost buyers quarters
Assuming Microsoft 365 backs up your data
It doesn't \u2014 under shared responsibility, protecting your M365 data is YOUR job, and native recycle bins aren't a backup. Without independent backup (AvePoint Cloud Backup), you can permanently lose data to deletion, ransomware or corruption. Don't assume; back up.
Letting Microsoft 365 sprawl ungoverned
Easy creation of Teams/sites/Groups leads to sprawl \u2014 chaotic, insecure, non-compliant \u2014 without governance. AvePoint Cloud Governance controls creation, access and lifecycle. Don't let M365 descend into an unmanaged mess; govern it.
Not knowing who can access your data
M365 permissions sprawl until no one knows who can access what \u2014 hidden over-exposure and risk. AvePoint Insights reveals and remediates it. You can't secure what you can't see; get visibility (and fix the risks).
Migrating with basic tools (data loss)
Manual or basic migration loses metadata/permissions, breaks access, and disrupts users \u2014 especially for M&A tenant-to-tenant or cross-platform. AvePoint Fly migrates with high fidelity, at scale. Don't risk a botched migration; use purpose-built software.
Keeping all data forever (a liability)
Keeping everything indefinitely costs money, increases breach exposure and e-discovery burden, and breaches DPDP's storage-limitation rule (don't keep personal data longer than needed). AvePoint Opus enables defensible disposal. Manage the lifecycle; don't hoard data.
