Cloud cost optimisation
Are your public cloud costs something you'd rather keep private?

Save up to 50% on your cloud costs
Done right, public cloud is efficient. Yet many organisations we speak to lack visibility into their public cloud set up. They don't know who has what services running where. As a result, they're paying more than they should be. But we can give organisations the visibility they need. In a single window, we'll let you see what's going on – and optimise it. We usually save our customers between 15 and 50% off their monthly public cloud bills. We can show you exactly how much we'll save you with a free demonstration.

How does it work?
The way our cloud cost optimisation service works is simple. We look at your entire environment, including your AWS, Azure and Google, and your VMware and your data centre. Then we present you with a detailed analysis. Not only do we show you where you can save money, you'll also be able to use our report to improve security, centralise governance and see what moving certain workloads to the cloud will cost.

How we bring your costs down
We reduce your costs in a number of ways, from reducing demand, identifying savings through reserved instances (RIs) or equivalent – and by rightsizing VMs/usage. We'll also make it easier for you to match costs to department or team, view cost trends and cost spikes.

Centralise governance
Allocate the right costs to the right people, forecast monthly spending and report better, improving overall cost management once and for all. You'll also be able to remove daily tasks, manage snapshots and set policies to automate actions.

Identify ongoing security concerns
While optimising other areas of your cloud will save your organisation money, optimising security will save your organisation. We’ll check your users have securely configured access to your cloud. We’ll set up alerts and policies for common identity and access management (IAM) errors and focus on identifying misconfigured users. Having checked IAM configurations, security groups and open ports, we’ll provide actionable insight on risks – to keep your part of the public cloud private.

How to take advantage of this service
You can take advantage of our cloud optimisation service in three ways. You can opt for optimsation on its own or as part of one of our support packages. Find out more about how Premium Support+ and Service Management help you get the most out of your team, your technology and your business.
