The Challenge

EO Group provides an all‑in‑one e‑commerce and operations platform that stationery dealers rely on to run their entire business. So for them, platform stability isn’t a “nice to have” — it’s mission‑critical.

Last year, EO Group reached a turning point. They were running their own data centres, plus a small office rack, and knew it was time to modernise. Moving to the cloud made sense, but security was non‑negotiable. With PCI compliance requirements and customer trust on the line, they needed a setup that was secure, resilient, and future‑ready.

One thing mattered more than anything else: having managed services and security under one roof. After extensive research, EO Group chose Transparity — and haven’t looked back. Transparity brought deep security expertise, helped identify weaknesses, and continuously strengthened EO Group’s security posture.

The Solution

Together, the teams migrated 110 virtual servers into Azure in just two months — with zero downtime. Careful planning, clear dependencies, and new ways of working made it seamless. Since partnering with Transparity, EO Group hasn’t failed a single external security check. With proactive monitoring and preventative action, issues are spotted before they ever become problems.

That peace of mind has been game‑changing. EO Group can now focus fully on developing and improving their platform, knowing security and infrastructure are in safe hands. The relationship has grown into a true partnership — with integrated teams, direct access to experts, and support whenever it’s needed, even in the middle of the night.

For EO Group, it’s not just about technology. It’s about trust, reliability, and having the right people alongside them as they grow.

The Impact

EO Group migrated 110 virtual servers to Microsoft Azure in just two months, completing the transition with zero downtime and providing a modern, scalable foundation for growth.

The new environment strengthened security and compliance, supporting ongoing PCI requirements while improving resilience through proactive monitoring and management.

With Transparity managing and optimising the platform, EO Group’s internal teams can focus on enhancing its e-commerce experience and driving innovation rather than maintaining infrastructure.

The result is a secure, reliable and future-ready platform backed by a trusted long-term partnership. You can hear more about the project in our customer story video below:
