Who we are.

GTconsult provides outsourced managed services by nurturing and growing talent in niche IT technologies for businesses around the world.

What we do.

We are a B2B consultancy that leverages enterprise collaboration software to enable productivity in the workplace. In other words we help other business use IT properly so they can get more done. We do this by making products such as SharePoint and Office 365 work better than what they do out of the box by changing the look and feel, applying branding, creating workflows, integrating to other systems and supporting the entire solution after. We have a great track record with a number of large local and international clients.

Our Culture.

We are geeks, we laugh at meme’s, we mock muggles and push the boundaries for our customers. We always come up against bigger corps who we usually beat head to head and we love Friday drinks and down time.
