Cloud Management as a Service — Migration Is the Start, Not the Finish.

Most cloud engagements end at the migration. Q7ai treats migration as day one of an ongoing managed service — operations, monitoring, cost governance, and optimization for as long as you're running in the cloud. Most SMBs overspend on cloud infrastructure simply because no one is watching utilization after go-live; that's the gap this pillar closes.

What’s probably true right now

Your cloud bill keeps climbing and no one can explain exactly why.
Your migration finished months ago, but nobody's optimized anything since.
You're paying for SaaS licenses nobody on your team actually uses.
You don't have a real disaster recovery plan for what's running in the cloud.
What’s included

Every piece of cloud services, under one team

Cloud Readiness Assessment & Migration

A structured evaluation of what should move to Azure, AWS, or Microsoft 365, and a migration plan that doesn't disrupt the business while it happens.

Cloud Management as a Service

Ongoing operations, monitoring, and governance after go-live, so the environment keeps being managed — not just watched for uptime.

Cloud Cost Optimization (FinOps)

Regular reviews of usage against spend, right-sizing resources so you're not paying for capacity you don't need.

Hybrid & Private Cloud Solutions

Architectures for workloads that can't or shouldn't move fully to public cloud, integrated with what already has.

SaaS Management & Licensing Optimization

A clear inventory of every SaaS subscription in use, so unused licenses stop renewing on autopilot.

Cloud Backup & DRaaS

Disaster-recovery-as-a-service for cloud workloads, tested on a schedule — not assumed to work when it matters.

Who this is for

Migration project, then ongoing management

Most engagements start as a scoped migration project and convert into an ongoing Cloud Management as a Service retainer.

Optimization-only engagements

Already migrated elsewhere? We'll audit and optimize an existing cloud environment with no re-migration required.

How this maps to your industry

Financial Services

Cloud governance built around data residency and audit requirements, not just uptime.

Manufacturing

Hybrid architectures that keep plant-floor systems local while back-office workloads move to the cloud.

Healthcare

HIPAA-aware cloud configuration for PHI, with backup and DR tested against real recovery-time requirements.

Common questions

We already migrated with another provider — can you just take over management?

Yes — optimization-only engagements start with an audit of your existing environment, no re-migration required.

How much could we actually save?

It depends on your environment — the cost audit during onboarding gives you a specific number before you commit to anything.

Do you work with Azure and AWS, or just one?

Both, plus Microsoft 365 — the right platform depends on your existing stack and workloads.

What's included in Cloud Management as a Service?

Ongoing monitoring, patching, cost governance, and a named team you can reach when something needs attention — not just a dashboard.

Can you help us move off a legacy on-prem system entirely?

That's exactly what the readiness assessment is for — mapping what can move, what should stay, and in what order.
