What Kezber does

Kezber is a privately held Canadian IT services and solutions firm founded in 1996 in Magog, Quebec, operating today with 101–250 employees across four offices (Estrie, Brossard, Centre-du-Québec, and Syracuse, NY). The company delivers a full-stack portfolio organized into two service lines: IT Expert (managed IT services, cybersecurity, IT outsourcing, infrastructure, and a Microsoft 365 offering as a Certified Partner) and Code, Data & AI (custom software development, business intelligence with Power BI, advanced analytics and AI, business process automation via Power Automate, data governance, technology advisory, and Power Platform). Its technology stack is anchored in the Microsoft ecosystem — Azure, Microsoft 365, Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, Microsoft Copilot, Teams, SharePoint, and Intune — supplemented by custom web-application work using Angular 5, Bootstrap, MQTT with WebSockets, and Leaflet for real-time tracking interfaces.

Kezber generates revenue from a mix of managed-service subscriptions (notably a Premium Secure tier with 24/7 support), project-based custom software engagements, and Microsoft license/resell streams through its CSP portal. Customers are primarily Quebec and North American mid-market and enterprise organizations with a clear vertical lean toward manufacturing and industrial buyers (Magotteaux, Cogiscan, GSI Électronique, Granit Design, AEM, Brault & Martineau), plus non-profits served through the Kezber Social Innovation program. Long-tenured relationships — including a 19-year engagement with Granit Design and a signed collaboration with Andersen Consulting in February 2026 — show a stable, repeat-driven book of business rather than transactional volume.

The firm is family-controlled (Alan Kezber as founder/President; Edward Kezber in a formal Customer Success Manager role), with no disclosed external investment, no M&A history, and no public revenue or headcount growth metrics. Its go-to-market blends direct enterprise sales (phone, web forms), Microsoft partner-sourced leads, and the Andersen Consulting collaboration that extends its addressable market through a global consulting platform of over 50,000 professionals.
