Cloud Cost Optimisation: How Venture 1 Consulting Can Help You Take Control

The rising cost of cloud services is becoming a significant concern for businesses of all sizes. According to Civo's 2024 Cost of Cloud report, 59% of organisations have seen their cloud bills increase over the past year, with nearly 37% reporting that the cloud has failed to deliver on its promise of cost-effectiveness.


For many, the complexity of billing and the dominance of the "Big 3" cloud providers have made cost management a daunting task.


The report highlights that cloud cost increases are not uniform. While some organisations have seen their expenses rise by up to 10%, others have experienced increases exceeding 25%. Smaller businesses are particularly hard-hit, with a significant portion facing monthly cloud bills ranging from £8,000 to as high as £4 million.


Despite these challenges, 40% of organisations have yet to take any meaningful steps to manage or reduce their cloud costs.


The Challenge of Cloud Cost Management


Several factors are driving the increase in cloud expenses. Inflationary pressures and the rapid deployment of AI technologies are key external influences, but the complexity of cloud pricing models often results in unnecessary costs. For organisations that struggle to keep track of their cloud usage and billing, these costs can quickly spiral out of control, making cloud services far more expensive than anticipated.
