What your PAYG customers are experiencing:
Rising costs – Paying full retail pricing with no negotiation power, and consumption that's hard to predict or control
Credit card headaches – Limited payment flexibility, potential credit limit issues, finance teams chasing receipts
Operational blind spots – Multiple invoices across services, underutilised resources they're still paying for, governance gaps across decentralised purchasing
Support gaps – No ongoing relationship or strategic guidance, suboptimal wait times when things go wrong
Missed opportunities – Unaware of credits, incentives or optimisation potential they're entitled to
Same or lower cost, better experience
In most cases, customers pay the same or less on CSP – and get a more holistic service. Predictable billing, no credit card juggling and someone actively looking out for their interests.
Flexible billing options
Monthly, annual or triennial billing aligned to cash flow and budgeting needs. One invoice instead of many.
Real support when it matters
24/7 Microsoft Premier Support through your Dicker Data relationship at no extra cost. When something goes wrong, they have direct escalation paths to Microsoft engineers – not a 48-hour wait.
Ongoing optimisation
Proactive guidance on right-sizing, cost control and making the most of their Azure investment. Year-round strategic support rather than set-and-forget.
No disruption to transition
The transfer is handled on the back end. No downtime, no service interruption. Customers keep ownership of their subscriptions and can make changes as needed.
Moving from Azure PAYG to CSP is straightforward, and Dicker Data's local licensing team can support you through each step: Review current state – Map existing Azure subscriptions and consumption patterns
Identify quick wins – Surface cost optimisation and governance opportunities
Plan the transition - Minimal prep required, back-end transfer
Execute transfer – No downtime, no disruption
Ongoing optimisation – Proactive management and support from day one
Our customer can now breathe a little easier knowing that if there's an issue with their essential business application in Azure, they have the full support of Truis and Microsoft.
