Straight answers about Azure, from someone with nothing to sell you.
COSCompute is an independent Azure consultancy for small businesses and startups. I’m paid only by you, so if you don’t need Azure, I’ll say so.
Azure is Microsoft’s cloud: rented computers and services for running your websites, apps, and data.
Run by Craig Martinez, a Microsoft Certified Azure Solutions Architect Expert. See certifications
Three promises
No commissions
I don’t resell Microsoft licenses or take referral fees. The only money I make is what you pay me, so my advice has no hidden angle.
You own everything
Your Azure account, your code, and your documentation stay in your name from day one. If we stop working together, nothing is held back.
A fixed quote before any work starts
Reviews and assessments have set prices you can see on this site. Bigger projects get a written, fixed quote that you approve first.

How working together goes
Step 1
A free 20-minute call
Tell me what you’re trying to do. I’ll tell you whether I can help, and whether you need Azure at all.
Step 2
A written, fixed quote
If it’s a good fit, you get a short scope and a fixed price in writing. Nothing starts until you agree to it.
Step 3
The work, then the handoff
I do the work on evenings and weekends, outside your business hours. When it’s done, you get everything in your name, with plain-English notes on how it all fits together.
