Comparing Cloud Services

C-Suite executives are realizing they are not getting the benefits they had hoped from “cloud services”. Cloud pricing models are very complex and subject to interpretation by different service providers. Cloud users are trying to figure out whether monthly, annual, or pay on demand models are the best fit for their organization and budget.

Almost every organization we talk to has stated that their cloud costs are rising. Cloud pricing models very difficult to compare event if you possess the technical skills.

  • Which cloud configuration is the best fit for your business?
  • How can cloud service offerings be compared?
  • By getting backup, collaboration services, and email services from the same provider are you getting a better deal?
  • Are you getting the benefits from using off-premises solutions that you expected?
  • Is your IT department skilled enough to migrate and integrate public and private cloud environments?
  • Are you effectively managing the security risks associated with working in a hybrid cloud environment?
