The TCO Calculator is used to estimate cost savings by migrating to Azure, offering a comprehensive analysis of potential savings by comparing current infrastructure costs against Azure's services.
To estimate cost savings by migrating to Azure, the TCO Calculator is used. The TCO, or Total Cost of Ownership Calculator, helps organizations assess the direct and indirect costs as well as the savings that can be realized by moving to Azure. This tool takes into account various factors like server costs, storage costs, network costs, and any existing investments in infrastructure. It contrasts these with the equivalent Azure services to give a detailed report on potential savings.
The Azure Price Calculator, on the other hand, is designed to provide pricing for individual Azure products and services based on your specific configurations and requirements. It does not provide the comprehensive cost savings analysis like the TCO Calculator does.
