COST SAVINGS
Migrating to the Cloud with a trusted partner can be a simple and straight forward project. Once in the Cloud the financial benefits are clear to see. The main cost savings are through the reduction of on-premise hardware, the management of these devices and Capex reduction.
But this is where the pitfalls in the Cloud can reveal themselves, such as:
• Overprovisioning – Paying for more than you need and for services you don’t use.
• Vendor lock in – Price rises with no way out of the contract.
• Applications – Issues can arise where certain apps may not be Cloud-friendly.
• Lack of migration strategy – Can lead to duplication of effort and services.
This is where our Cloud Cost Optimisation Service can help with planning and strategy to avoid these pitfalls.
WHAT OUR CCOS ENTAILS
There will be five steps required in order to carry out the Cloud Cost Optimisation service. We will start with an introduction call, three cadence calls, with remote access to your cloud services. The assessment will reduce costs by providing:
- An internal perspective of your Cloud services
- Gap Analysis of your existing cloud costs against what you should be paying
- A review of existing Cloud Service Provider charges
- A detailed evaluation of your Cloud spending
- The elimination of duplicated and unused services
We will then provide you with a summary report detailing our findings, including:
– A list of all expenses, including all licence and annual costs
– Findings of underutilised services
– An action plan and a no obligation quote of how we can help
