Refine your plan

Migrations rarely go as planned. Minimize organizational risk and cost over-run by adapting your migration strategy to your changing needs. Adjust variables in real time to continuously refine your plan, remaining conscious of cost and schedule impact while leveraging ongoing analysis to optimize workloads.

Track and communicate progress

Effective tracking can provide key stakeholders clarity and confidence as an organization migrates to the cloud. Track planned costs against your cloud actuals throughout – and after – your move. Drill into cost drivers to maximize the ROI of your migration strategy and detect variances as they arise for greater cost and operational efficiency.
