Review your Azure environment for security, cost and resilience, or plan a move to the cloud with a clear view of what it involves.
These are the issues we most often uncover in a Azure Assessment. If any of them sound familiar, an assessment will show how exposed you really are.
Open management ports and storage accounts or databases with public access are a common way in for attackers, and easy to leave behind after a project.
Broad Owner and Contributor roles get handed out and never revisited, leaving no clear record of who can change what in your environment.
Oversized virtual machines, idle services and unattached disks keep billing every month, and the cost is rarely visible until someone looks.
Workloads running in the cloud still need backups and a recovery plan. Many have neither configured, or have never tried a restore.
Not sure which of these apply to you?
Book a no-obligation discovery call and we'll talk through your setup and whether an assessment makes sense.
Whether you already run workloads in Azure or are weighing a move, an assessment shows what you have, what it costs and where the risks are. We review against Microsoft's Well-Architected Framework and give you a practical plan rather than a list of warnings.
How workloads are designed, whether they are built to stay available, and where single points of failure sit.
Role-based access, network exposure, Defender for Cloud recommendations, policies, naming and tagging.
Idle and oversized resources, reservation and licensing options, and where spend is growing without a reason.
For on-premises systems, which workloads are ready to move, which need rework, and the order that makes sense.
Every assessment follows the same four steps, so you always know what is happening, what we need from you and what you will receive at the end.
Step 01
We agree your goals, the systems in play and who we need to speak to.
Step 02
Our engineers review your environment, using read-only access where possible, and talk to your team.
Step 03
Findings in plain English, ranked by risk and business impact.
Step 04
A walkthrough and a prioritised plan, with optional help to put it into action.
You finish with findings you can understand, a plan you can prioritise and a team that can help you act on it, if you want us to.
You are handing us a view of your systems, so we keep it simple: clear scope, honest findings and people you can pick up the phone to.
Customers rate how we communicate and how we support them, visit after visit.
Support from 5 locations across Australia, with remote help wherever you are.
Reports written for business owners, not just IT teams, so you can see what matters and decide.
We reply within one to two business days, and only use your information to respond to your enquiry.
Straight answers about the Azure Assessment. If yours isn't here, ask us on a discovery call.
We review your architecture, security and governance, costs and resilience against Microsoft's Well-Architected Framework. If you are moving from on-premises, we also assess which workloads are ready to migrate.
Yes. We look for idle and oversized resources and for reservation and licensing options, and we estimate the impact of each saving so you can decide what is worth acting on.
We ask for read-only access to review how your environment is built and configured. We don't make changes during the assessment.
Yes. We review your current servers and applications, identify what can move as-is and what needs rework, and recommend a sensible order, with the cost and effort involved.
Many customers pair assessments, for example security with Microsoft 365, or infrastructure with Azure, to see the whole picture.
