When comparing cloud technology to traditional on-premise IT infrastructure, many businesses in Perth assume cloud is more expensive due to its ongoing monthly costs. But in reality, once you compare apples to apples—including performance, reliability, security, and lifecycle costs—cloud technology can reduce your ICT expenditure by up to 80%.
With cloud-based solutions, you’re not just buying storage or software—you’re investing in:
24/7 uptime and business continuity
Automatic cloud backups and disaster recovery
Scalable infrastructure that grows with your business
Offsite data replication for added resilience
No upfront hardware costs or surprise maintenance bills
On-premise servers typically require full replacement every 3–4 years, not to mention licensing, cooling, power, and IT support. With Epic IT’s managed cloud services in Perth, you can eliminate these overheads and only pay for what you use.
Modern cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure use a flexible Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) licensing model via CSP (Cloud Solution Provider), giving you complete control. Need to scale up? Add users or resources instantly. Experiencing a slowdown? Scale down without penalty. Compare that to the old perpetual license model where you paid upfront and hoped it would be fully utilised.
For small to mid-sized businesses in Perth, cloud computing is not only more cost-effective—it’s smarter. Let Epic IT perform a cloud cost-benefit analysis tailored to your business needs. We’ll show you how cloud adoption can increase efficiency, improve flexibility, and dramatically lower your total cost of ownership.
