Like many enterprises, a U.S.-based specialty metals distributor began their journey to the cloud with Microsoft Azure. But their journey soon stalled before the company could see the payoffs. 

Their existing Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) offered only transactional support. The enterprise sought strategic guidance to make the most of public cloud resources, minimize risks, and uncover cost-saving opportunities. 

So, how did the company turn a struggling cloud vision into real benefits? 

Taking a Consultative Approach to Microsoft CSP

As a Microsoft Tier 1 Cloud Solution Provider, Sayers offers cloud assessments and migration, architectural design, managed services, security, and cost optimization.

Working closely with the organization’s IT leadership, the Sayers team provided a consultative approach to identify how the company could improve their cloud experience. With Sayers as the enterprise’s new Microsoft CSP of record, they successfully transitioned several hundred Microsoft licenses.

Sayers helped identify and resolve licensing gaps, adding more Microsoft 365 E3 licenses for enterprise-grade cloud security, storage, and productivity apps. A cloud assessment by Sayers included a cleaning process to find and remove any “floating” licenses no longer needed by the company. Sayers engineers also offered cost-saving tips to most effectively reap the benefits of Microsoft Azure Cloud.

Delivering Measurable Impact Through Expertise

By bringing in the right technical expertise throughout the process, Sayers helped guide the organization from evaluation to execution. The in-depth Azure discussions and cloud assessment offered clear visibility into cloud migration costs and optimization opportunities.

Through early technical sessions, Sayers identified immediate costsaving opportunities including:

• optimizing virtual machine usage 

• eliminating unused licenses

• reducing unnecessary expenditures. 

Such improvements helped the organization lower costs while strengthening their Microsoft environment.These successes led to enhanced, secure networking with Sayers as a longterm strategic partner who supports the organization as its IT needs evolve.
