Case Study: Vassallo Group achieves rapid provisioning and 25% IT savings with Microsoft Azure

Maltese business leader discovers ideal basis for growth in Microsoft cloud

Vassallo Group, a major Maltese conglomerate founded in 1946 with nearly 2,000 employees across construction, property, healthcare, hospitality and education, faced legacy on-premises IT that caused downtime, slow provisioning and limited visibility for managers. With a small IT team, the company needed a more reliable, scalable and data-driven foundation to support operations and growth.

Vassallo moved to Office 365 and migrated its datacenter to Microsoft Azure with partner CyberSift, integrating Dynamics NAV, Azure SQL Data Warehouse and Power BI. The shift cut IT costs by about 25%, eliminated email downtime, reduced server provisioning from a week to minutes or hours, improved reporting and decision-making for executives, and enabled barcode-based asset and property management—laying the groundwork for continued digital transformation.
