Date 01 October 2024

As a SaaS business, Achievers – an industry leading employee engagement solution provider – was looking to ensure optimal performance of its platform for users, while reducing its non-scalable cloud costs.

Achievers implemented a data-driven cloud cost optimisation program that resulted in cost savings, improved performance, and better agility.

Join our webinar to learn what made the project successful, including:

  • How Achievers identified and addressed the root causes of their growing cloud spend, including understanding why the relationship between business metrics and cost is so important.

  • Which data analysis techniques and tools were used to pinpoint optimisation opportunities and how you can replicate this within your organisation.

  • Why it’s crucial for teams to be aligned across the business to meet a common goal and what changes you need to make.

  • How Achievers overcame internal challenges and objections from stakeholders.

With an introduction from Jeff Cates, CEO at Achievers, the webinar will include a deep dive from Stephen Griffin, Director of Site Reliability Engineering at Achievers and Jason Cross, Principal Consultant at Capacitas, focused on how Achievers realised the desired results.
