Verity has handled storing my files for quite some time and helping me time to time when issues arise. I am a solo attorney so I do not have an IT department. Kyle Pizer helped me greatly today by transitioning all of my files and programs from an old to a new laptop so I can continue working without interruption. Much appreciated!
Phil's Review Sourced from Google
For a larger company that needs a complete managed service with a lot of employees maybe they are better suited? For a small company sales office like mine, with only 5 employees they were nothing short a nightmare. Techs were all great and very professional. Their billing department and their overall communication were terrible. Their sales team sold us products we never needed and they never followed up on things we actually wanted done. We asked them to address modernizing our office , setting up a cloud based server. Never happened. We had a 15 year old data server with less than 500 Gigs of data on it. We signed up with them in May 2023. We wanted their "monitored" pay as you go service, I asked them to provide what charges would be to set up a cloud based data server based on their own sales team suggestion before we signed up. After 3 attempts over several months, I was finally notified in August they would need to charge us 8 hours of billed time to provide what was needed to do that. This was after they already onboarded us and already had inventory of what we had. Having friends in the IT industry they told me something just didn't sound right and this forced me to educate myself on Microsoft 365 services, which we were already paying for I might add. I came to find out they basically wanted $1200 of extra charges just to tell us to move our data to SharePoint. They sold us an email filter program that they set up and installed which ended up blocking legit emails for our business, then when we needed to get those emails sent to our inbox they charged us billing time to do it, then charged us AGAIN to remove the program entirely when they installed and set up the program and it never worked. They opened tickets on our 15 year data server we were never told about, and then billed us time out of our hours block without ever notifying us about it until we saw the bill. Ultimately over 4 weeks time I moved all our data to SharePoint myself, removed our old data server from our network. Our Microsoft accounts were upgraded and all our employees can now work remotely if they chose with file access anywhere with all the benefits of Microsoft defender and malware endpoint security which has been configured also by myself ( Keep in mind I don’t consider myself an IT expert by any means and was able to do all this on my own with a little bit of research). We’re getting almost no email spam now and our dependency on a 15 year old data server is gone. Sadly this all came with no help from Verity IT and instead thousands of extra dollars in fees for things we never needed that could have been avoided. Now 3 months since terminating our relationship our office data sharing system runs flawlessly and we have had not 1 technical issue.

Verity IT was simply amazing to deal with. When COVID hit we rushed to get our teams to work from home and they were there every step of the way. Now transitioning back into the office they made sure that moving back in was simple and everything was taken care of. Great company to work with and have on your side.

Cloud consultants can help businesses control costs, align cloud systems with business goals, and identify risks or inefficiencies that internal teams may overlook.
They can also fill skill gaps for organizations with limited in-house cloud expertise.
A Deloitte study found that while 95% of IT and business leaders believe that cloud is critical to digital transformation, 57% said lack of experience is a major barrier to implementation.
Moreover, 35% of organizations moved workloads back to on-premise setups after experiencing unexpected cloud costs.
For businesses dealing with these issues, a cloud consulting partner can provide the strategic, technical, and operational guidance needed to improve outcomes.
According to Flexera's State of the Cloud report, small and midsize businesses continue to rely on cloud consultants and managed service providers for services such as:
To prepare for cloud adoption, assess your migration readiness, security and compliance requirements, business goals, and technical environment. Key preparation steps include:
Cloud migration can take 1-4 weeks for small businesses rehosting their IT infrastructure using off-the-shelf solutions. However, enterprise-level migrations that require a hybrid cloud strategy may take over 1 year.
The factors impacting the cloud migration timeline include:
Approximate cloud migration timelines:
Before hiring a cloud consulting firm, ask questions that help you evaluate its experience, delivery process, and fit for your specific project:
To choose the right consultant for your business, specify the outcomes you want to achieve and weigh them against the consultant's capabilities and past results.
Here are some steps to guide you:
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding cloud consulting companies. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.
DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:

Cloud consulting companies typically provide these specialized services:
Some firms also offer adjacent cloud consulting services, such as data analytics, digital transformation, DevOps, AI/ML development, custom software development, managed services, and ongoing support.
Top cloud consulting firms primarily help organizations plan, design, migrate, and optimize their cloud environments. Managed services, by contrast, focus on the ongoing operation, monitoring, and support of IT systems. Here is a side-by-side comparison:
| Cloud Consulting Firms | Managed Services Providers | |
| Primary focus | Strategy, architecture, migration, compliance, and optimization | Day-to-day operations, monitoring, maintenance, and support |
| Services | Cloud assessments, roadmap development, migration planning, implementation, governance, compliance, optimization, and training | Infrastructure monitoring, incident response, patching, cybersecurity support, help desk services, backups, and disaster recovery |
| Engagement model | Typically, project-based or advisory, with some offering ongoing support | Usually long-term and recurring under a managed service agreement |
| Best for | Organizations planning a migration, modernization effort, or cloud optimization initiative | Organizations that need continuous operational support for existing systems |
The right choice depends on your security and compliance requirements, workload patterns, internal IT capabilities, and budget.
Consider choosing a cloud platform if:
Consider an on-premise setup if:
In some cases, a hybrid approach may be the best option, especially for organizations that want to keep sensitive systems on-premises while using the cloud for scalability, collaboration, or backup and disaster recovery.
Consider hiring a cloud consultant when you need specialized expertise, an outside perspective, or extra support for a complex project. Consultants help fill skill gaps on your internal team, develop a migration strategy, and recommend the right cloud platform, deployment model, and tech stack according to your needs.
A cloud consulting company can also help identify gaps and opportunities in your current cloud platforms to further align them with your business goals, operational needs, and compliance requirements.
On the other hand, keep cloud computing in-house if you already have an experienced internal team that can plan, migrate, set up, maintain, and manage your environment effectively.
An in-house approach may also be preferable if you work with highly sensitive data or proprietary systems and want tighter day-to-day control over operations.
The cost of cloud consulting services starts at $60-$180 per hour, while senior consultants or highly specialized experts may charge $100-$250+ per hour. The total cost of service will depend on project scale and complexity, security and compliance requirements, and technologies involved.
Approximate cloud consulting service rates are as follows:
