How cost-effective is your IT?

Imagine your CFO or head of finance coming to you tomorrow and asking you about IT costs for the next few years. Would you have a firm answer? In a situation like this, many IT managers would only be able to fall back on estimates and vague suppositions. But rising IT costs, extended delivery times and ever-more-stringent security requirements mean that this is not enough.

Our total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis gives you clarity and a professional assessment of your IT setup that will enable you to make strategically sound decisions. We work with you to decide whether the cloud or an on-premises solution would be a better fit for your requirements and budget.

Cloud and on-premises: Both have their benefits and drawbacks.

Choosing between a cloud and an on-premises solution is not an easy task. An on-premises data centre, for instance, gives you full control over your IT but costs a lot in investment in hardware, maintenance and operation, while energy costs and the carbon tax also need to be accounted for. The cloud, by contrast, offers a great deal of flexibility, a high degree of scalability and predictable costs but forces you to put your trust in external providers, e.g. for privacy and data protection. There is no blanket solution that will suit all companies; instead, you need to consider your specific requirements – and this is where we come in.
