## How it works

1. Tell us how many VMware virtual machines and Windows Server 2016 servers are in scope.
2. Choose how many managed servers you would run afterwards, and roughly how much data moves.
3. See the one-off and monthly prices from our catalogue and a rough effort range. Send it to us if you want an engineer to check it.

## Questions we get asked

### Where do the prices come from?

The fixed prices are the same ones shown on our pricing page and charged at checkout. The intro price applies to our first customers; the list price is shown alongside.

### How accurate is the effort estimate?

It is a rough planning range based on our own rule of thumb per workload and per terabyte, not a measured average or a quote. Real effort depends on applications, licences and how much testing you need.

### Is moving to your managed servers really free?

Yes. Migration onto a managed server is included in the monthly price. The assessments and plans are fixed one-off prices.
