Networking

Bandwidth

Virtual desktops

… plus a wide variety of services such as Cognitive Services (including Azure OpenAI) connected over the internet or a VPN.

Your Azure partner – An expert team of Microsoft Azure migration consultants

We have successfully advised on and delivered many infrastructure migration projects, where our Azure experts have supported clients in migrating to Azure to optimise availability, performance, security and cost.

Microsoft has recognised our Azure expertise with the Infrastructure (Azure) Solution Partner designation.

Seamless Azure infrastructure migration services

We work hand-in-hand with you to manage the migration of your IT infrastructure to Azure with minimum business disruption and optimum performance.

Here’s your typical Azure infrastructure migration in seven steps:

We evaluate your current infrastructure, using Microsoft’s industry-leading tools. We map out your IT infrastructure, helping you decide which applications and servers to prioritise for your Azure migration.

We go through and assess your workload requirements to identify dependencies on other systems and any migration issues.

This step is about getting your requirements in order, including the tools and target platform you’ll need. We agree on what to migrate and in which order. We make sure you’re involved so that everything is planned in the right way for your business.

We figure out the amount of resource you’ll need to run your migrated workloads in Azure, working out the perfect balance between cost and performance.

Finally, we plan according to your business’ requirements for each workload, for instance:

  • Is downtime acceptable? If so, when and for how long?
  • What are your on-going availability requirements following migration?
  • What are your on-going disaster recovery requirements following migration?

We identify workloads and applications that can be re-platformed to Platform as a Service services. We identify any optimisation tasks that can be completed based on the features of your target platform.

Your migration plan is put into action and your target platform is given more resources – all this to ensure a seamless journey to Azure with minimum business disruption.

Once done, we make sure that Azure is optimised for your ongoing usage.

We document your solution from start-to-finish then run a handover session with your in-house IT team so that they can be confident to take the reins and manage your new Azure system.

What our customers say

We talked to Compete366 who offered us a way forward in our transition and gave us the confidence to go ahead.  They were able to advise us on Azure architecture, deployment, security and optimisation.”

Alan Rockall , Co Founder, SyberNet

“The technical consultant from Compete366 provided excellent design and architecture advice and guidance to help us transition our entire IT infrastructure over to Microsoft Azure. With a competent IT team in-house at Wesser, we didn’t need a Managed Service, but it was extremely helpful to have the advice available to us from Compete366 when we needed it.”

Craig Stallwood, Wesser

“I have been delighted with the migration, where my team worked very hard, supported by expert advice from Compete366, and achieved everything in the timescale we had set out. Compete 366 made sure that we didn’t make any expensive mistakes, and guided us through the process.”

Darrell Cann, Apex

“Without the advice and support from Compete366 we could have spent a lot more and over-engineered our infrastructure at the development stage.”

Alam Shukla, Hanse

“Right from the start the consultants from Compete366 were helpful and provided really useful advice.  The appealing aspect for us is that Compete366 help us look after own IT estate – and get better at what we needed to do.  Working with them seemed very straightforward.”

Rob Broady, Head of IT, Holloway Friendly

Amir Dangol, Senior IT Manager, Integrity

“We were immediately impressed with the advice that the Compete366 specialists in Azure Architecture were able to provide. This was all new to us and we really needed some external expertise that we could use to get our questions answered. The beauty of working with Compete366 is that we transferred our Azure consumption to them, and at the same time received all of their advice and guidance free of charge.”

We are also setting in place a regular monthly meeting which will allow us to further refine our architecture and ensure we keep on track as our requirements grow and change.”
