Why choose Azure Subscriptions and services for your business?
Microsoft Azure is a scalable and secure cloud–computing platform. Businesses can use Azure and its cutting-edge technology to build and manage systems and applications across the world. Azure’s pay-as-you model allows for cost-optimising and well-managed resource allocation.
Key benefits of Azure include:
Pay for what you use
Azure Services can be effortlessly scaled up or down in line with business needs. To eliminate over-investing in infrastructure, Azure’s flexible nature allows your business to handle varying workloads using a cost-effective service.
Global Reach
Azure operates on a global network of data centres, which allows for low latency and high performance across worldwide services. The ability to provide services closer to your users will give you the edge on operations and user experience.
Integrated DevOps
A wide variety of DevOps tools and services are supported by Azure, which allows for smooth integrations and continuous (CI/CD) deployment pipelines. By implementing Azure, software releases are more reliable, lifecycles are sped up and teams can work more cohesively regardless of location.
Cost Management and Optimisation
Pay-as-you-go pricing, alongside tools for managing cloud expenditure, makes Azure a clear choice for businesses that are conscious of monitoring budgets. Azure also offers insights and recommendations for cost optimisation, supporting their cost-effective model.

Why Choose Compete366 as your Azure Subscription provider?
Azure resources are pay-as-you-go with no upfront commitment (although you have the option of getting a discount by making a commitment and buying Reserved Instances for some of the services).
Firstly you need an Azure subscription. This doesn’t cost anything, it’s simply the way to set up payment for when you do choose to use Azure resources. But if you’d like the support of our Azure experts, we are on hand to help.
Only pay for what you use
If you sign up for an Azure subscription and then don’t deploy any Azure resources, you won’t get a bill. We will invoice you based only on your Azure consumption via direct debit.
Flexibility of subscriptions
You can add multiple Azure subscriptions to your tenant if you wish and use them for different projects or customers, for example.
