Case Study: a global insurance provider achieves over $2M in annual IT savings with Crayon

Crayon Identifies Savings of Over $2M in Annual IT Spend

The customer, a global insurance provider with over 46,000 employees, was facing the challenge of a rapidly increasing monthly Azure spend that had exceeded its IT budget. A significant portion of this overspend was associated with its App Services and Virtual Machines. To address this, the company engaged vendor Crayon and its Cloud Economics Service to technically optimize its Azure environment and reduce consumption costs.

Crayon implemented a data-driven solution using its tools and expert consultancy to analyze the customer's cloud usage. As a result of this engagement, Crayon identified immediate monthly savings of over $166,000, which represents a 23.15% reduction and translates to over $2 million in annual cost savings for the customer.
