  5. OngoingSupportWe stay as your Azure team, or hand over with runbooks.

When Azure consulting is the right fit And when you need a migration team or a managed service instead

A good fit when

  • Your Azure bill grows every quarter and nobody can say why
  • You're about to move to Azure and want a plan you can price
  • Your team builds well but hasn't designed an Azure landing before

Look elsewhere when

  • The plan is agreed and you only need the move done: see Azure migration
  • You want someone to watch and patch what already runs
  • You've chosen AWS or Google Cloud for most of your systems

Our Azure consulting offerings in detail What each one covers, and what you have at the end of it

Azure advisory and cloud strategy

We start with your applications and your bill, not with a list of Azure services. For each application we write down who uses it, when it's busy, and what it costs to run today.

You end with a priced plan: what moves first, what changes on the way, and what stays where it is.

Azure architecture and design

We design the landing zone your applications move into: subscriptions by team, a hub network, Microsoft Entra ID for sign-in, and Azure Policy for the rules your auditors check. It's written in Bicep or Terraform, so every environment is built the same way.

  • A diagram and a price for each application
  • Security rules mapped to your audit list
  • Backup and recovery targets agreed up front

Azure application development and modernization

When an application is worth changing, we move it to managed services such as App Service, Azure Functions, Azure SQL, and Azure Kubernetes Service. A nightly batch job on a server that idles all day often becomes a function that runs for 10 minutes.

Azure DevOps and automation

We set up Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions pipelines that build, test, and release every change. Your developers ship more often, and every release can be rolled back in minutes.

Azure integration, data, and AI use cases

Most Azure projects connect to systems that stay put, such as an on-premises ERP or Dynamics 365. We connect them through API Management, Service Bus, and Logic Apps.

Where it changes a decision, we add Microsoft Fabric for reporting, Azure OpenAI for reading documents, and IoT Hub for data from machines.

Disaster recovery, monitoring, and cost management

We set up Azure Site Recovery and backups, then test a failover before anyone relies on it. Azure Monitor and cost alerts show your team what's slow and what's expensive.

Every month we review the bill with you and name the three changes that would save the most.

Questions about Azure consulting What buyers ask us before they start

What is Azure consulting, and who needs it?

Azure consulting helps a company decide what to run on Azure, design it, and get it working at a known cost. It suits companies about to move, and those already on Azure whose bill or reliability isn't where they want it.

How does Azure consulting help with migration and cost management?

A consultant prices each application on Azure before it moves, so you move the ones that gain and leave the rest. After the move, the same team right-sizes servers and buys reserved capacity only for loads that run all day.

What should I look for in a Microsoft Azure consulting company?

Ask for an architecture they designed and still run, and for how they price a move before it starts. A good Azure consulting company shows you the cost of each application, not only the cost of its own team.

What deliverables do we get from an Azure consulting engagement?

You get a priced plan for each application, the target architecture, the landing zone as code, and runbooks for your team. If we also move or build, you get the working systems and their monitoring.

Can your Azure consultants work with our in-house IT team?

Yes, and most engagements run that way. Our consultants design and build alongside your engineers, so your team can run Azure on its own when we step back.

Send us the Azure plan you're unsure of

We'll price each application in it and tell you which ones we'd move first, and which we'd leave.
