Azure Cost
Cloud costs aren't just about numbers. They're about understanding, ownership, and coherence.
When you see what the resources cost, who uses them, and why they exist, the numbers become more than budget lines. They become a management tool.
Our goal is simple: You should only pay for what you actually need. And at the same time reduce unnecessary resource use, both for the sake of the economy and the environment.
What we offer
Awareness and structure
For many, the challenge starts with costs being distributed without structure.
Experience has shown that tagging is often random, that ownership is unclear, and that there is a lack of common understanding of what cost dimensions actually mean.
We start by making this clear by establishing a relevant tagging structure, simplifying concepts, and helping you create a common language that makes sense across teams and roles. Then we connect this to reporting that provides an overview and shows where things are falling short.
This is not a one-time exercise, but a process. We give you a simple starting point, support gradual improvement, and ensure that the insights are up-to-date and understandable – all the way.
A better basis for governance
With Cloud Cop you get a model for allocating costs in a way that reflects your business.
This makes it easier to identify overspending, see what has no value, and prioritize cost-saving measures where they actually have an effect.
At the same time, both management and the development team get the same picture to work from. The reporting creates dialogue, clarity and provides a better basis for decision-making.
And because every resource that is redundant, oversized, forgotten also has an environmental footprint, this is not just financial management – it is also a contribution to sustainable operations.
How it works in practice
We start by connecting to your Azure environment. Then we perform an analysis and visualization of existing tagging and resource usage.
Based on this, we further guide you in establishing/adjusting cost dimensions that are related to the business's structure and needs and identifying how tagging and reporting are related.
We then put together a step-by-step plan where we focus on getting started at the level you are mature for.
The result is more than insight – it's control
Cloud Cop not only gives you insight into cost data, but also a way to understand and improve your cloud spending. It's largely about raising awareness so you have clarity on what's driving your costs and the confidence that you're making the right decisions.
This is not about doing everything at once, it 's about doing the right thing first. And not losing focus.
