At FinAnts, we are on a Mission to Remove Cloud Wastage through deployment of FinOps. We centre our Services around seven core Solutions: 1. Cloud Cost Management Audit – Over 50% of CxO’s believe that poor cloud financial management has a negative impact on their business; through this audit, aligned to your business and cloud operating model, we provide clarity of status. Rapid Response Cloud Cost Rescue – When you lost control over your cloud cost, every hour counts and costs you more. Through our Rapid Response offering, we engage within 24 hours to bring your cloud cost back in control. Cloud Cost Prevention – Making cost savings is critical, but preventing cost is possibly more important. Through our Cloud Cost Prevention service, we help you put the guard rails in place to run cost optimised from the start. Cloud Cost Optimisation – On average over 25% of cloud cost is due to wastage. We deploy skills, methods, patterns and tools to save and ultimately avoid cost of cloud wastage. Cloud Billing, Cross Charging & Contract Management – Cloud billing, cross charging and contract management is complicated and time consuming. If spreadsheets still are your pilar, and you struggle to keep up, it may be time for change. We make it efficient, trustworthy and substantially automated. FinOps Enablement – FinOps as a growing body of knowledge provides good practice for Cloud Cost Management. We help you move towards your FinOps Desired State across defined FinOps Capabilities: Inform, Optimise and Operate. FinOps Tool Implementation – Skilled FinOps aware project management to ensure successful, rapid deployment of your selected FinOps tooling.
