How can my business benefit from Azure Managed Services?

Azure Managed Services are a great way to save time and money on your Azure Cloud infrastructure. Azure’s comprehensive set of services can be difficult to manage on your own. By outsourcing management of your infrastructure to a third-party provider you can reduce the number of Azure resources you need to provision and manage, saving you more. In addition, Azure Managed Service providers in New Zealand can help you optimise your Azure infrastructure for performance and cost. 

How can CBS New Zealand help me plan, prepare, and manage my Azure Managed Services deployment?

As a Microsoft Teir 1 CSP, we can help you plan, prepare, and manage your Azure Managed Services deployment in several ways. First, we can help you assess your Azure cloud readiness, recommend a deployment approach and Azure services that fit your business needs, and provide guidance on how to get started. We can also help you create and implement an Azure management strategy, including establishing Azure service governance, creating Azure Resource Manager templates, deploying Azure Automation and monitoring solutions, and more. Ask us to deliver ongoing support to help you troubleshoot issues, optimise your Azure deployment, and keep your Azure environment running smoothly. Whether you're just getting started with Azure or looking to maximise the value of your investment, working with CBS can help you achieve your goals.

Frequently asked questions

What are Azure Managed Services?

Azure Managed Services are provided by a Azure Managed Service Provider or MSP. Azure MSPs can offer complete Azure solutions that are fully managed and include Azure cloud services, Azure infrastructure, Azure support, and Azure tools. Azure MSPs help you get the most from Azure by providing expert knowledge and guidance on how to best use Azure services. They also provide ongoing support and monitoring of your Azure environments to ensure they’re always running smoothly. By working with an Azure MSP, businesses can focus on their core goals and leave management of their Azure environment to the experts.


Do I need a MSP to manage my Azure?

Engaging an Azure MSP can be a great way to supplement or replace your in-house Azure expertise. Azure Managed Services can help you with monitoring, backup and disaster recovery, migration, security, and more. It’s important you do your research when selecting an Azure MSP to ensure you’re working with a reputable and experienced provider, like CBS.

What should I look for when choosing an Azure MSP?

Not all Azure MSPs are created equal. It’s important you do your research when selecting an Azure MSP. First and foremost, you should ensure that the Azure MSP is certified by Microsoft. You should also inquire about the Azure MSP's pricing model, SLAs (Service Level Agreements), and their experience working with similar sized organisations and workloads.

What solutions do you offer to support evolving needs and changing business environments?

As a CBS Managed Services customer, you’ll enjoy a business-led approach to the support we provide. From the outset, we’re curious and questioning, uncovering your key business challenges to help define your IT needs. The cornerstone of our service model is an annual IT strategic review where we conduct a thorough review of your business goals, how they may have changed, and help pivot your IT roadmap to adjust the technology to keep you ahead of your competition.


Does CBS help optimise costs with custom plans?

Our pricing model is flexible and built to meet the needs of your business. We have a suite of bronze, silver, and gold packaged solutions that ensure clear and set monthly fees. Our proactive approach to delivering your managed services means we’re always looking at how to optimise your Azure or M365 environments, so you’re never spending money where you don’t need to.
