SaaS, IaaS, and cloud storage — managed together
Cloud computing is how modern teams work. TANET’s managed IT services help clients access email, create invoices, and keep a consistent desktop experience from anywhere with internet — with ongoing management after the migration.
SaaS
Software as a Service is the most common cloud path — Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace where many tenants share application services oriented around daily operations.
IaaS
Infrastructure as a Service runs server operations in the cloud. Removing aging on-premise hardware is often more cost-efficient and more reliable for day-to-day operations.
Cloud repository
Object storage is a practical way to get affordable capacity for large data sets or archives — commonly used for cloud backup and reference data.
What our cloud management services cover
Moving workloads is not enough. You need ongoing management that keeps the environment secure, optimized, and cost-aware every day.
24/7 monitoring
Proactive monitoring and alerting so issues are visible before users feel them.
Security & compliance availability
Enterprise cybersecurity controls with HIPAA, CMMC, and PCI availability as needed for your industry.
Migration & modernization
Secure cloud migration and modernization so you are not stuck halfway between old servers and unfinished cloud projects.
Backup & continuity
Backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity planning woven into the same flat-rate relationship.
Strategy reviews
Regular strategy reviews and technology roadmaps so cloud spend and architecture grow with the business.
Multi-cloud & hybrid
Multi-cloud and hybrid cloud management when Microsoft, AWS, or mixed environments need one accountable team.
Accessible anywhere, with predictable cost
Many companies finish a migration and still need ongoing expertise. Our cloud management services take responsibility for monitoring, optimizing, securing, and updating the environment so performance, patches, and surprise costs are not your night job.
- Accessible anywhere — invoice on location, email without waiting for the office, and a home-office experience that matches the workplace
- Cost control — performance optimization and cost management under one flat-rate monthly investment
- Virtual cloud ops — resource optimization, backup strategy, and disaster recovery planning as a recurring partnership
- Assessment first — start with a free technology assessment

Cloud migration services without the downtime scramble
Most cloud projects fail in the details: a forgotten shared drive, a line-of-business app that only runs on an old server, or users who were never told what changed. Our cloud migration services plan for those details before anything moves.
How TANET cloud migration services run
- Inventory — we list every server, share, mailbox, and application, and who depends on each one.
- Fit check — each workload is matched to SaaS, IaaS, or cloud storage, or kept on-site if the cloud is not the right home for it.
- Pilot — a small group moves first so problems show up while they are cheap to fix.
- Cutover — the main move is scheduled after hours, with our helpdesk ready the next morning.
- Clean-up — old hardware is retired, licenses are trimmed, and documentation is handed to you.
Every migration ends in the same place: ongoing cloud management services from the team that did the move, so nobody has to relearn your environment.
Microsoft 365 moves
Email, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams migrations from on-site Exchange, file servers, or another tenant, with mailbox rules and shared calendars carried over. After the move, our Microsoft 365 management services handle day-to-day tenant administration.
Server workloads
Line-of-business applications and databases moved to cloud infrastructure where it makes sense, sized so you are not paying for capacity you never use.
Hybrid cloud management services
Some systems belong on-site. We connect what stays with what moves, so staff see one environment rather than two.
Signs your business needs cloud management services
Cloud management services are not only for large companies. Small offices feel these problems first because nobody has time to watch the admin portal.
- Nobody owns the tenant — admin accounts belong to a former employee or an old vendor.
- Bills keep creeping — without cloud management services, unused licenses and oversized cloud servers add up month after month.
- Sharing is a free-for-all — files are shared by public link and nobody reviews who can see what.
- Remote work feels fragile — staff rely on a VPN into one aging server in a closet.
If two or more of these sound familiar, cloud management services will usually pay for themselves in time saved and waste removed. The NIST definition of cloud computing is a helpful plain reference for how SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS differ before you decide what to move.
Our flat-rate managed IT clients in Seattle, Portland, and Boise get the same technicians for cloud and on-site systems. See how that works on our city pages: managed IT services Seattle, managed IT services Portland, and managed IT services Boise.
Cloud management services, layer by layer
Cloud management services only work when someone owns every layer, not just the one that broke last. Here is what our team looks after on an ongoing basis, and what is scoped separately.
| Layer | What TANET manages |
|---|---|
| Accounts and sign-in | Sign-in is locked down and MFA is enforced. Accounts are set up before a new hire’s first day and removed promptly when someone leaves. |
| Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace | Mailboxes, shared drives, and permissions are cleaned up so people can find and share what they need. We also review which third-party apps have been granted access to your tenant. |
| Licenses and cloud spend | Performance and cost reviews catch unused licenses and oversized cloud servers before they add up month after month. |
| Cloud servers (IaaS) | Line-of-business applications and databases are monitored, patched, and sized so you are not paying for capacity you never use. |
| Hybrid and on-site systems | What stays on-site is connected to what moved, so staff see one environment rather than two. |
| Monitoring and alerts | 24/7 monitoring and alerting so issues are visible before users feel them, backed by a 24/7 helpdesk with local techs. |
| Backup, security, and compliance | Backup and disaster recovery, and cybersecurity controls for compliance needs such as HIPAA or PCI, are scoped separately in your assessment so you only pay for what your business needs. |
As with every migration, documentation is handed to you, so the next person to touch your cloud does not start from zero. For the security side of the stack, see managed cybersecurity.
Onboarding: how we take over an existing cloud
You do not have to migrate anything to start. If you already run Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or cloud servers, onboarding brings what you have under management first.
Assess
A free assessment reviews accounts, devices, backups, and cloud settings, from Microsoft 365 sharing to the third-party apps connected to your accounts.
Take ownership
Admin accounts that belong to a former employee or an old vendor are moved back to your business and protected with MFA.
Clean up
Unused licenses are trimmed, public sharing links are reviewed, and staff get the right access and nothing more.
Manage
24/7 monitoring, cost reviews, and regular strategy reviews run under one flat-rate monthly investment.
It helps to have admin access to key systems available, along with a list of the software your team relies on. If the assessment shows a workload should move, our cloud migration services take it from there. If it should stay on-site, we manage it where it is.

Cloud management questions
What do TANET cloud management services cover?
Cloud management services cover 24/7 monitoring and alerting, performance and cost reviews, secure cloud migration and modernization, strategy reviews, and multi-cloud or hybrid management. Cybersecurity controls with HIPAA, CMMC, or PCI availability, and backup and disaster recovery, are scoped separately in your assessment so you only pay for what your business needs.
What cloud models do you support?
Software as a Service (SaaS) such as Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace for daily operations; Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) for running server workloads in the cloud; and cloud repository / object storage for backup and archive data (examples include Amazon S3, Wasabi, or Backblaze).
Why move business workloads to the cloud with TANET?
Access applications anywhere you have internet, reduce reliance on aging on-premise hardware, improve scalability, and pair cloud management with managed backups, cybersecurity controls, and a 24/7 helpdesk with local techs.
Which partners power your cloud stack?
We partner with Microsoft, Cisco, and WatchGuard for cloud and security platforms, and work with SonicWall and Dell where firewall, remote access, and hardware fit the design.
How do I get started?
Use Contact Us or schedule a free technology assessment. Already a client? Open Remote Support at tanet.screenconnect.com.
Do you offer cloud migration services on their own?
Yes. Cloud migration services can be a one-time project, but most businesses keep TANET on for cloud management services afterward so the same team supports what it built. Scope and price are set in the free assessment.
Will a cloud migration interrupt our work?
We plan cutovers after hours and move a pilot group first. Staff may need to sign in again or learn where files now live, and our 24/7 helpdesk is available the morning after to help.
Do we have to move everything to the cloud?
No. Some applications and devices are better kept on-site. We design hybrid setups when that is the better fit, and manage both sides.
How are cloud management services priced?
Cloud management services are billed as one flat-rate monthly plan. The scope and price are set in the free assessment, based on your staff and devices, your locations, and which services you choose, so you know the cost and coverage before you commit.
Do you manage Google Workspace as well as Microsoft 365?
Yes. Both are SaaS platforms we support for daily operations, and we use Google cloud productivity apps when that stack fits your business. Sign-in, sharing, permissions, and licenses are managed the same way on either platform.
What happens to our admin accounts?
Admin access is moved to accounts your business owns and protected with MFA. If an admin account belongs to a former employee or an old vendor, we find it during onboarding and close it, and the documentation is handed to you.
Can cloud management services lower our cloud bill?
It can. Performance and cost reviews look for unused licenses and oversized cloud servers, which add up month after month when nobody is watching. Any savings depend on what the review finds in your environment.
