Is Azure support the same as Managed IT?
No. Azure work here covers landing zones, migrations, identity, cost, and cloud workloads. Managed IT is the broader day-to-day layer (help desk, endpoints, backup, vendor coordination). Many clients run both so Azure and the rest of the estate stay under one operating rhythm.
Do you migrate us, operate Azure, or both?
Both are common. Time-boxed migrations and remediations often start under IT Consulting or a scoped Azure project, then hand into ongoing operations. If you already live in Azure and need steady ownership, we can engage on operations without a full re-platform.
How is Azure work priced?
Projects (assessments, migrations, landing zones) are scoped with a clear start, finish, and deliverable set. Ongoing operations sit on predictable retainer terms for the resources and response we own. Microsoft’s cloud consumption is separate; we help you see and govern that spend, not bury it.
We already have a Microsoft 365 tenant. Do we need a separate Azure engagement?
Often yes when you run servers, apps, data platforms, or hybrid identity beyond the collaboration suite. Microsoft 365 covers productivity and tenant hygiene; Azure is the infrastructure and platform layer. Scoping is where we sort what belongs where, before you sign.
Who is this for in Ohio?
Organizations that need accountable Azure design and operations from a Cincinnati-based firm serving Greater Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, and Dayton. Healthcare, manufacturing, and finance estates are common. Strategy and vendor ownership can sit under Fractional CIO/CISO when leadership wants the seat, not only the cloud work.
