Direct cost advantage without risk
Our comprehensive analysis is completely free of charge.
You only pay when you achieve visible savings and also benefit from further optimization for sustainable and long-term cost efficiency.
High Azure cloud costs are often caused by inefficient use of resources and a lack of optimization.
This often goes undetected due to a lack of monitoring, which means that companies react too late. Regular analysis is therefore necessary in order to identify and sustainably reduce these cost drivers.
We identify unused resources, oversized instances and cost-effective pricing models such as reserved instances.
In contrast to automated tools or the Azure Cost Advisor, which often only offer generic recommendations that are primarily aligned with Microsoft's interests, our consultancy offers customized and independent solutions.
Our experts precisely adjust auto-scaling rules, optimize storage management and workload placement to truly minimize the end user's cloud costs.
Finally, training the IT team to always work with the latest Azure technologies and best practices increases the team's efficiency and autonomy in the long term.
Your advantages
General tools such as the Azure Cost Advisor or ChatGPT can only save you part of the cost - we offer customized recommendations for maximum savings.
Independent advice
In contrast to tools such as the Azure Cost Advisor, which provides Microsoft-oriented recommendations, the assessment delivers neutral optimization suggestions focused on the end user.
Cost transparency
The assessment provides a clear and detailed analysis of current cloud spend and uncovers hidden cost drivers.
Individual optimization
In contrast to automated tools, the assessment provides customized solutions that are specifically tailored to the needs and usage patterns of the company.
Immediate savings
By identifying and removing unused or oversized resources, costs can be reduced immediately.
Risk-free and free of charge
The assessment is carried out without any upfront costs, so companies do not take any financial risk and only pay when they see visible savings.
Long-term increase in efficiency
In addition to the immediate reduction of costs, measures are proposed to make the infrastructure more efficient in the long term and to minimize future expenses.
Securing the future of infrastructure
The assessment not only offers short-term savings, but also recommendations for modernization and scaling in order to make the infrastructure fit for future growth.
Uncovering cost traps
Efficient use and scaling of your Azure resources
Unused resources
Identify unused virtual machines (VMs), ExpressRoute circuits and other underutilized resources with Azure Advisor. Get recommendations on which resources should be decommissioned and identify potential savings.
Correct dimensioning
Discover underutilized resources and get recommendations on how to reduce your spend through reconfiguration or consolidation.
Savings plans and reservations
Investigate options like Azure Savings Plans for compute and Reserved Instances to save up to 72% off pay-as-you-go pricing.
Restructuring
Turn IaaS resources into cost-effective PaaS solutions.
Autoscaling and compute services: Configure autoscaling to dynamically allocate resources and choose the right Azure Compute Service for efficient operations.
Do you know the hidden and visible costs in your cloud?
Our analysis reveals the cost drivers in your Azure Cloud. We identify these hidden expenses in order to exploit savings potential in the long term.
Calculate cost advantage now
In our assessment, we quickly identify sustainable savings potential and show you further ways to reduce your costs in the long term.
- The calculation is based on a potential reduction of 11.3% of annual Azure spend. This percentage is an average value resulting from the implementation of short-term applicable measures, such as reservations and shutdowns, and savings opportunities identified in the free assessment that can be implemented directly.
- As part of the assessment, issues are usually identified that should be analyzed and optimized as part of further consultation. For example, 50% of the direct cost savings can remain with the customer or be used for other purposes.
- The calculation is based on an expected reduction of a further 14.8% of annual Azure expenditure. This percentage is a conservatively achievable average value resulting from the implementation of measures applicable in the medium term, such as refactoring, redesign and optimized service usage in Azure.
- Our approach allows the budget to be mobilized by ensuring that the amounts saved do not flow to Microsoft.
The total savings are calculated from the measures that can be implemented directly and the additional annual savings potential that is released through appropriate consulting. The expenses for consulting are included in the calculation.

Our answers to your questions
The assessment is aimed at IT decision-makers who are under pressure to deliver cloud innovation while meeting growing demands for cost efficiency.
If you feel your Azure spend is getting out of control, the Azure Cost Optimization Assessment from MAKONIS is just the tool you need. It helps you to effectively reduce your cloud costs without compromising on performance.
Complexity of cloud usage:
As cloud usage grows, companies often lose track of their expenditure.
Oversized resources:
Often too many resources are allocated, which are not fully utilized and cause costs.
Lack of transparency:
Without clear insights, potential savings remain untapped.
Our cost structure is risk-free and performance-based. Unlike many competitors who charge high fixed fees or hourly billing with no guarantee of savings, we offer a free analysis. You only pay when we achieve actual savings.
Yes, our approach goes beyond a one-off analysis. We support you in implementing the optimizations and ensure that your cloud infrastructure is continuously adapted to current requirements in order to guarantee long-term efficiency and cost reductions. Other providers often only focus on short-term solutions without ensuring sustainability.
The assessment provides clear insights into your cloud expenditure, identifies oversized resources and ensures greater transparency in your cloud usage. It helps you to identify potential savings and avoid unnecessary costs.
In contrast to other providers who often provide general and Microsoft-oriented recommendations (such as the Azure Cost Advisor), we offer independent solutions that are specifically tailored to your cloud usage. Our measures are designed to sustainably reduce your expenditure and optimize your infrastructure in the long term.
While AI-powered tools like the Azure Cost Advisor often only provide generic and standardized recommendations, our analysis is based on a detailed review of your specific cloud usage. We take individual circumstances into account and develop customized strategies that enable sustainable savings - something that automated tools cannot do in the same depth.
