Our Methodology

As your cloud solution provider, The Onyx IT Group serves as your trusted partner for all aspects of cloud strategy, service delivery, and the delivery of cloud services. Our methodology focuses on a holistic approach to ensure your organization maximizes the benefits and is well-positioned to be successful.


Desktop-as-a-Service vs. Traditional Desktops

Employees need a workstation where they have all the software tools they need to be productive. The problem is that manually installing, supporting, and maintaining this software across multiple desktop workspaces, in multiple configurations, is extremely time-consuming. There can be conflicts between apps, important checks can be missed, and that can leave your computers and data vulnerable. With DaaS, your workstation is in the cloud. You simply need a device to connect to it. Utilizing DaaS provides security, scalability needs as your workforce grows, burst capacity, and productivity through remote work as employees will be able to access their full desktop from any machine.

Infrastructure-as-a-Service vs. Traditional On-Premise

Building your own IT infrastructure is one of the biggest capital outlays your business will make. Creating a data center, buying servers, installing a reliable network, monitoring, and maintenance all need to be planned and budgeted. It’s a significant expense for any business, but for startups and small to mid-sized businesses, it can be a very major part of your budget.

Fortunately, with the advent and rapid growth of cloud computing, you can now get your infrastructure from the cloud. Known as “Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS),” you can source and deploy all of your IT infrastructures needs virtually. Even better, because IaaS pricing depends on how much you use, you can get much better control of your costs by scaling your infrastructure up or down as needed.

Cloud Platform-as-a-Service vs. Standard Licensing Methods

Continually upgrading and licensing software can get expensive, quickly. Whether it’s the capital expense of license fees, or the time and resource costs of installations and upgrades, it all adds up. With new hires, exits, and employee moves, license management can become a complex issue and an administrative burden to keep it all updated. Fortunately, there’s an easy solution — a scalable, cloud-based, volume-based licensing and software delivery system called “Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS).”
