Case Study: Global Company achieves $75,000 annual Azure savings with ParkMyCloud

Global Company Saves $75,000 Per Year on Azure with ParkMyCloud

Global Company faced runaway Azure spend when development virtual machines were left running 24x7 across global teams and time zones. They needed a way to schedule non-production VMs to shut off when not in use, let developers override schedules without granting full Azure access, and get actionable utilization recommendations — so they turned to ParkMyCloud’s SaaS platform.

ParkMyCloud was deployed on a trial basis to set per-machine on/off schedules (12 hours/day on weekdays, off weekends), enable RBAC overrides for developers, and surface utilization-based recommendations to identify unused servers. The result: $6,000 saved in the first month and $75,000 in annual savings across 20 Azure VMs, fewer orphaned instances, and reduced admin time for the Global Company.
