Managed Azure Cloud Services

An MSP is a company (like Synextra!) that manages a customer’s IT services for them. They often offer a range of services, including network, application, infrastructure, and security. They’ll enable businesses to reduce their IT costs and improve scalability.

In the context of Azure cloud environments, MSPs help companies move to the Azure cloud and then manage their infrastructure from that point. The MSP takes care of the technical work so businesses can focus their resources on their core work.

Cloud migration is one of the most important things a world-class Azure MSP can do; getting companies off their legacy hardware and onto the cloud.

At Synextra, we plan and execute migrations big and small, moving your data, apps, SaaS connections and services to your shiny new Azure infrastructure. We strive to make this important part of your cloud lifecycle as seamless and stress-free as possible, so you’ll be up and running again with minimal downtime.

Cloud optimisation is all about configuring your cloud platform and managing resources for maximum efficiency, scalability, and cost management.

A good Azure cloud specialist will provide a balanced Azure environment that has all the performance your business needs, while maintaining strong cost savings. This might include scaling up or down the number of virtual machines you’re running depending on usage. Or it could involve setting permissions and policies to make things run as lean as possible.

Cloud security is an essential part of our Microsoft Azure managed services. The top MSPs will make sure your environment is secure by managing identity and access management, configuring firewalls, and deploying malware protection. They’ll also provide the latest security patches for your devices, as well as offering real-time monitoring to identify any threats quickly. Planning and preparing for disaster recovery is also a key part of any cloud security setup.

Absolutely! Whether your setup involves only Azure resources on the public cloud, or is a multi-cloud or hybrid cloud (a mix of on-premises and cloud), we can support you.

Azure Managed Service pricing is almost always bespoke, as it depends on the size of your existing infrastructure, the scope of your desired Azure setup, and other variable factors. It’s best to get in touch with us to find out what your estimated costs might be.

DevOps can be a complicated affair. With so many moving parts and people to keep in the loop, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. But thankfully, Azure has plenty of tools for automating the tricky stuff. From Power Automate (formerly Flow) to Logic Apps and Pipelines to automated deployments and release notes, Azure gives you access to an arsenal of helpful workflow boosts which we’d be happy to advise you on.

There’s a wide range of industries that use Azure; healthcare, energy, manufacturing, retail, professional services, and more. Whether they’re sectors dealing with big data, web applications, or any kind of digital transformation, they can all benefit from massive productivity gains and creative workflow enhancements. At Synextra, we custom-build each of our Azure cloud solutions to meet our clients’ industry-specific needs.
