Leading Microsoft Partner Cloud Direct is proud to have partnered with Hable, a Microsoft technology adoption specialist, to help the increasing number of Copilot users get more from their investment in Microsoft AI.
While paid-for Copilot licenses have increased 160 per cent year on year, many organisations are still finding it difficult to translate their investment into meaningful improvements across productivity, decision making, and business efficiency.
Working collaboratively, Cloud Direct and Hable aim to help organisations move beyond scattergun license assignment and instead deliver a structured approach to technical scoping, onboarding, and behavioural change across businesses.
Following the announcement, Cloud Direct CEO Leighton Searle said: “This partnership brings together two things that organisations need to succeed with AI: a secure, well‑governed technical foundation and the confidence for people to adopt it.
“By combining Cloud Direct’s technical depth with Hable’s expertise in change and adoption, we’re helping customers unlock human‑led, AI‑powered outcomes that truly matter.”
Mark Reynolds, Founder and CEO at Hable, added: “AI transformation only works when people understand it, trust it, and feel excited to use it. Partnering with Cloud Direct means we can pair technical readiness with meaningful adoption to ensure that organisations don’t just deploy AI, but genuinely embed it across every role, every day.”
A structured approach
This partnership delivers a two-stage Copilot Adoption Framework which is designed to support organisations from initial assessment through to consistent, organisation-wide Copilot use.
The Discovery phase focuses on understanding how work happens today, identifying where Copilot can add the most value and establishing a clear view of readiness.
The Implementation phase builds on Discovery with targeted communication, training, and coaching programmes to support consistent use across business teams and embed Copilot in day-to-day work.
Rather than focusing on rollout alone, this approach is designed to address real ways of working to ensure Copilot is being used in ways that deliver practical results for each and every user.
Looking beyond licensing
Copilot success cannot be measured by the number of licensed assigned, but by the tangible difference in makes to everyday work.
The partnership between Cloud Direct and Hable has been designed to enable customers to benefit from the expertise of both businesses, gaining:
- Faster return on their Copilot investment
- Clearer visibility of impact at a leadership level
- Reduced risk from inconsistent or unmanaged use
- Greater confidence in scaling Copilot across the business
