Funding your next move

De-risking a VMware estate migration operationally and financially

Migration brings uncertainty - technical, financial, and operational. Managing it well requires preparation, not luck.

Structured funding programmes help reduce exposure while supporting transformation.

Financial de-risking

Approved cloud partners can access funding pools that offset migration costs. These funds reduce the need for upfront capital and smooth the transition into cloud operations.

An assessment identifies eligibility and helps secure these benefits. It ensures no available support is missed.

Operational assurance

Beyond funding, assessments help define the technical scope. They ensure migrations proceed without disruption and within compliance boundaries.

This proactive approach limits downtime and protects service levels.

Aligning stakeholders

CFOs want predictable costs. CIOs want reliable performance. A well-run assessment provides both. It aligns stakeholders through shared evidence rather than assumptions.

This alignment turns a complex migration into a managed, transparent process.

From uncertainty to having a plan

Funding and planning go hand in hand. Together, they create a pathway that’s financially and operationally sound.

Request your no-cost assessment and turn migration risk into managed progress.

Ready to take control of your VMware strategy?

Broadcom’s changes have created uncertainty in VMware estates, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. Through the Cloud Community, you’ get a privileged pass straight to a no-cost, no-obligation, board-ready assessment worth £15K.

These assessments give organisations the evidence needed to modernise and migrate confidently, ensuring they avoid overspending and maximise the return on their cloud investment.

Assessments are funded by AWS to help our community VMware customers evaluate the impact of changes to the VMware business model, by providing data-driven plans that identify cost savings, optimise licensing, and reduce migration risks.
