The cloud bill keeps climbing
Spend grows every month while usage barely changes. We audit where the money goes: oversized instances, idle environments, unmanaged storage, and pricing models nobody revisited after launch.

Cloud consulting services: strategy, migration planning, and cost control
Webisoft's cloud consulting gives you an engineering-grade answer to the cloud questions that carry real money: what to migrate, which provider fits, where the spend is leaking, and whether the architecture will hold.
Senior Montreal engineers assess your environment, model the costs, and deliver a written plan you can execute with your team or ours. Strategy and assessment live here; when the plan calls for a build, our engineering practice carries it forward without a handoff.

When to bring us in
Signs your business needs cloud consulting services
Cloud problems rarely announce themselves as cloud problems. They show up as a bill that keeps climbing, a migration nobody wants to own, or an architecture that made sense three years ago. These are the situations where an outside assessment pays for itself:
A migration is coming and the risk is unclear
Moving off a data center, an aging platform, or another provider is a project that can stall a business if it goes sideways. We plan the migration in stages, with rollback paths, before anything moves.
You can't choose between AWS, GCP, and Azure
Each provider will tell you they fit. We compare them against your workload, your team's skills, your compliance obligations, and your existing contracts, and give you a documented recommendation.
The architecture grew by accident
Services were added one urgent decision at a time, and now nobody can draw the system on a whiteboard. We map what exists, find the fragile points, and design the target state worth moving toward.
Security and compliance questions have no owner
Auditors, customers, or insurers are asking how your cloud environment is secured, and the answers live in five people's heads. We assess the environment against the framework you need to satisfy.
On-prem hardware is reaching end of life
A refresh cycle is the natural moment to decide what moves to the cloud, what stays, and what gets retired. We build the comparison honestly, because not every workload belongs in the cloud.
The Webisoft advantage
What our cloud consulting engagements include
(5)- 1
A current-state assessment you can trust
We inventory what actually runs, what it costs, and what it depends on, verified against billing data and infrastructure, not against what the diagram from two years ago says.
- 2
A written migration and architecture plan
Workloads, sequence, dependencies, cutover approach, and rollback paths, documented in enough detail that any competent team can execute it. The plan is the deliverable, not a slide.
- 3
A cost model for the decision
Run-rate today, run-rate after, and the one-time cost of getting there, with the assumptions stated so finance can interrogate them. Cloud decisions are budget decisions, and we treat them that way.
- 4
A risk register with owners
Every migration and re-architecture carries risk. We list the failure modes, their blast radius, and the mitigation for each, so surprises during execution are smaller and rarer.
- 5
Knowledge transfer to your team
The reasoning travels with the plan. Your engineers sit in the working sessions, review the drafts, and finish the engagement able to defend and evolve the architecture themselves.
