CloudSpend Clarity™ FAQs
What does CloudSpend Clarity™ analyse?
CloudSpend Clarity™ performs an independent review of your Microsoft 365 and Azure usage data to identify inactive or redundant licenses, inefficient Azure resource allocation, and governance gaps.
This analysis highlights opportunities to reduce waste, optimise license assignments, and right-size cloud services for cost efficiency.
How does the service improve governance?
We provide tailored recommendations to automate license management and enforce policies that prevent overspending and ensure compliance.
Our approach helps organisations maintain control over cloud resources and avoid unexpected charges through proactive governance.
What savings can clients expect?
Clients typically achieve savings by eliminating unused licenses, adjusting Azure service sizes, and negotiating better commercial terms based on our benchmarking insights.
Savings vary by organisation size and cloud usage but often exceed 12% of annual Microsoft licensing costs.
Is there any upfront cost to use CloudSpend Clarity™?
No upfront fees are required. You only pay if we deliver savings of 12% or more on your annual Microsoft licensing spend.
This value-first model ensures you receive measurable ROI before incurring any cost.
How long does the analysis and implementation take?
The initial analysis typically completes within 2 to 4 weeks, depending on data availability and complexity.
Implementation timelines vary based on agreed optimisation actions but are designed to minimise disruption and deliver quick results.
