SaaS sprawl is the silent tax on Calgary SMBs.

The average mid-sized business pays for 87 SaaS subscriptions and actively uses about 35 of them. Cloud costs drift upward quietly: overprovisioned VMs, forgotten storage buckets, legacy contracts that auto-renew. Meanwhile, the tools your team actually needs are either misconfigured, under-licensed, or have not been evaluated in years. We fix that.

What We Do

wesolv-IT // SERVICE 02.A

Cloud Infrastructure & Strategy

Your infrastructure should accelerate you. Not hold you back.

We assess your current cloud footprint, whether that's Azure, Google Cloud, AWS, or a mixed environment, and design a strategy that fits your actual workloads. Migration planning, architecture review, cost rightsizing, and performance tuning. Practical, not theoretical.

SCOPE

Cloud migration planning, architecture design, and execution
Multi-cloud and hybrid environment optimization
Cost analysis, rightsizing, and performance tuning

Vendor & License Optimization

Stop overpaying for underperforming tools. We negotiate.

We audit your full vendor stack: every SaaS, every licensing agreement, every auto-renewing contract. Then we consolidate where it makes sense, renegotiate where we can, and cut what isn't earning its place. Most of our technology engagements pay for themselves in vendor savings alone.

SCOPE

License audit, consolidation, and renegotiation
Vendor comparison and selection advisory
Contract review and cost reduction strategies

How a typical engagement looks

Discovery & Inventory

~1 week

We map your current technology stack end-to-end: every tool, every license, every vendor contract, every cloud resource. Most clients are surprised by what turns up.

Analysis & Opportunity Mapping

1–2 weeks

We identify waste, redundancy, under-provisioning, over-provisioning, and misalignment between tools and actual business processes. Quantified savings, quantified risks.

Roadmap & Recommendations

~1 week

Written report with prioritized actions: what to consolidate, what to renegotiate, what to rightsize, what to replace. Every recommendation has a dollar value and a timeline.

Execution & Handoff

varies

We execute the plan, or advise your team as they do it. Vendor negotiations, cloud migrations, license consolidations. You keep the savings; we keep the documentation up to date.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have vendor partnerships that bias your recommendations?

No. We don't take referral fees, commissions, or vendor kickbacks. Our recommendations are based on what actually fits your business. If Microsoft is right, we say Microsoft. If Google is right, we say Google. If open-source is right, we say open-source. No lock-in, no lock-out.

How much can license optimization typically save?

For SMBs with 20–200 employees, we typically find 20–35% savings across SaaS subscriptions and cloud infrastructure in the first audit. Some engagements find more, some find less. The audit itself is a fixed fee, and we'll tell you before we start whether it's likely to be worth it.

Do you handle migrations or just strategy?

Both. Some clients want us to plan the migration and hand off to their internal team. Others want us to execute it end-to-end. We scope each engagement around what you actually need: strategy-only, execution-only, or full ownership.

What if we're already locked into a long contract?

Most contracts have exit clauses, renegotiation windows, or consolidation options that clients don't know about. We review the contract terms first and tell you honestly what's feasible. Sometimes the answer is 'wait until renewal and do it right'; sometimes there's more flexibility than you think.
