Azure Migrate: How to Assess Your Infrastructure and Know What Moving to Azure Will Cost
This webinar was focused on assessing your current environment and estimating what it could cost to move to Azure using the Azure Migrate tool. ProArch’s experts walked through the value of cloud foundations for modern organizations, what Azure Migrate is and what it is not, how it helps team come up with data-backed decisions rather than the guesswork, end-to-end approaches, from discovery and readiness insights to dependency mapping, right-sizing, and turning assessment data into a practical migration plan.

Key Takeaways
- Know what Azure Migrate is—and what it isn’t. It’s an assessment and planning tool; it’s not prescriptive and doesn’t replace landing zone design, governance/security, or workload remediation.
- Get clarity fast. Azure Migrate helps answer three questions leaders care about: What do we have today? What would it look like in Azure? What’s it going to cost?
- Turn assessment data into business decisions. Use data-backed insights to accelerate prioritization, migration waves, and budget conversations.
- Use assessments to surface readiness and risk. Identify which workloads are Azure-ready and what needs remediation before you move.
- Sequence migrations with dependency insights. Understand relationships between workloads so you can reduce risk and plan migration waves.
- Right-size to avoid surprises. Recommendations based on observed utilization help avoid overprovisioning (wasted spend) or undersizing (performance risk).
- Know when to trust the estimates. Confidence ratings indicate when you have enough telemetry for reliable sizing and cost estimates—and when you should collect more data.
- See Azure Migrate in action. The webinar included a detailed Azure Migrate demo showing discovery through assessment of outputs, sizing recommendations, and cost estimates from end to end.
- Build the roadmap with ProArch. Translate results into an actionable plan: what to move first, what to modernize, what to retire aligned to your cloud foundation.
- Explore funding options. Microsoft programs may help offset assessment and migration/modernization efforts. ProArch has worked with several clients to get the right funding opportunities and offset migration costs.
