In an era when technology is driving our progress, optimising IT is critical for businesses. This is especially important for large companies, where huge costs are often incurred for IT. However, many companies unnecessarily spend a lot of money on IT issues that are not essential to business operations. However, often a lack of knowledge internally or an unclear historical dependency leads to reluctance to discontinue certain products or services. Cloud360 is the partner to support management teams in this and thus make substantial savings on IT management.
Identify unnecessary IT spending
A common problem within (large) companies is the allocation of large budgets to IT services that are not used or necessary for business operations. Cloud360 conducts in-depth analysis to identify these IT expenditures. By then eliminating, scaling down or optimising these unnecessary costs, our experience shows that companies can make significant savings. This is how we make IT budgets smaller and more efficient in consultation with your management team.
Saving thanks to a practical approach
The desire to save on IT costs in companies is a common and also logical question, but also one that involves many other questions and can be complex. A no-nonsense proactive and targeted approach is therefore key. Cloud360 is happy to take your company by the hand in this regard by offering a strategy that goes beyond a simple reduction in costs, but aims to optimise the entire IT infrastructure (on premise and cloud).
We do this through a number of steps:
- Evaluation of current infrastructure: Through an in-depth analysis, we map out your company’s entire IT infrastructure. This allows us to see not only what is potentially redundant (become redundant), but also where optimisation is possible and can thus indirectly lead to cost savings. Of course, these should be optimisations that do not come at the expense of performance, efficiency and effectiveness.
- Priorities: Of course, we cannot just throw the entire IT infrastructure out the door. Some things are essential for day-to-day operations. At the same time, others may have become redundant or just not utilised enough. For example, services may overlap or a particular service may no longer be needed due to technical innovation. Cloud360 helps prioritise this and, together with management, identifies the things and services that actually contribute to the business objectives. This is essential to work towards an infrastructure aligned with the company’s goals. We eliminate unnecessary noise and optimise processes.
- Monitoring: Optimising IT costs is not a one-off task, but an ongoing process. After all, opportunities, threats and business objectives can change. We monitor the effectiveness of the measures we take and adjust the strategy if necessary. We do this through a proactive approach that allows the IT infrastructure to constantly adapt to changing circumstances, so that IT management always remains as cost-efficient as possible.
- Transparancy: As far as we are concerned, the key to a successful cost optimisation process is transparency between Cloud360 and your company’s management team. Through open communication and sharing insights, informed decisions can be made together. The aim is, of course, firstly to cut costs, but also to establish a partnership in which IT management is part of the business strategy.
Go for expertise
Understandably, a lack of technical knowledge within a management team can cause IT services and work to be overvalued at times. Thus, IT services are not always discontinued even if they are no longer used in practice. Cloud360 is happy to help with this and provide insight into IT management. Cloud360 has the expertise to assess what is essential and what is not. This also allows your company to save on IT costs without compromising your IT infrastructure.
