Azure Cloud Migration Company in Austin

QServices is not headquartered in Austin, but we work with Austin clients across Tech, Healthcare, and Real Estate on remote engagements with 4 to 6 hours of daily CT overlap. QServices is a remote-first Microsoft Solutions Partner that plans and executes Azure cloud migrations for companies that need to reduce infrastructure costs, improve uptime, and prepare for AI and data work on Azure.

What Austin buyers typically need from Azure cloud migration

Austin's three main private-sector industries each have distinct migration requirements:

• Tech companies (SaaS, dev tooling, B2B software) typically need refactor-and-modernize work: moving workloads off on-prem or AWS to Azure App Service and Azure Kubernetes Service, consolidating DevOps pipelines under Azure DevOps, and reducing monthly cloud spend by 20 to 40 percent. Pure lift-and-shift often surprises these teams with a higher bill than expected, which is why we scope the refactor work upfront.
• Healthcare companies (health tech, digital health, clinics) need HIPAA-aligned Azure architectures. That means Azure Key Vault for secrets management, Azure Entra ID for patient auth, and encrypted storage and transit at every layer. For Healthcare clients, budget 15 to 25 percent above baseline for compliance overhead. See our Azure migration for Healthcare page for specifics on how we handle this.
• Real estate companies (proptech, brokerages, title companies) typically need Azure SQL migrations, Azure Blob Storage for document management, and integrations with MLS and title software. Each non-trivial integration adds $3,000 to $12,000 to the engagement scope.

Texas-specific compliance context: the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) applies to businesses that process personal data of Texas residents above certain volume thresholds. It requires data minimization, purpose limitation, and the ability to honor deletion and opt-out requests, all of which affect how you architect data stores and access controls on Azure. If your company handles insurance data, the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) has additional data handling and retention requirements. We factor both into every migration plan we write for Austin clients.

How we work with Austin clients

Our engineering team is India-based. Austin runs on Central Time (CT). That gives us an overlap window of roughly 8 AM to 10 AM CT most business days. We structure engagements to work inside that window rather than around it.

Standard communication cadence:

• Weekly video standups at 8 AM or 9 AM CT, scheduled around your team's calendar
• Async sprint updates in Microsoft Teams or Slack at the close of each sprint cycle
• Code reviews and pull requests reviewed within one business day
• Architecture demos after each two-week sprint, recorded and shared for your records

All architecture decisions, security configurations, and compliance controls go through a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) review by a named senior engineer before we send anything for your approval. This applies to every Azure migration we do, not just AI workloads. It is how we catch mistakes before they reach your infrastructure.

On-site visits to Austin are available for milestone reviews (end of discovery, go-live sign-off) at cost. Most clients find the remote model works well once sprint cadences are established. You get a named project lead throughout, not a rotating account manager, so your contact knows the full migration plan and can make decisions without escalation.

Relevant work in similar markets

We have not worked with a client based in Austin specifically. The two Azure migration projects we can reference are from banking and SaaS. Both are directly relevant to Austin's Tech and Healthcare buyer profiles, and we are naming them rather than inventing a local reference.

SomBank Mobile Payment Platform - We built and migrated a mobile banking platform for an Islamic bank onto Azure using Azure Service Bus, Azure B2C, Azure Key Vault, and an Ocelot API Gateway. The platform launched with 100,000+ downloads and a 4.8-star rating, and it was the first digital payment platform in a predominantly cash-based economy. The secrets management, auth, and compliance architecture we used maps directly to what regulated industries in Austin, including Healthcare and insurance, need from HIPAA and TDPSA-aligned migrations.

Ergonnex AI 360 (SaaS platform) - We migrated and built a project management SaaS startup's platform onto Azure using React 18, Next.js, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, and Azure, with real-time dashboards, AI-driven resource allocation, and third-party connector integrations. This is the type of work Austin Tech companies running B2B SaaS ask for when they want to move off on-prem infrastructure or consolidate DevOps under Azure.

What Azure cloud migration costs for a typical Austin project

Our pricing is in USD. Typical Azure cloud migration engagements range from $15,000 to $150,000 depending on scope:

• Small scope ($15,000 to $30,000): Single workload migration or refactor. 6 to 10 weeks. Azure App Service, Azure SQL, basic CI/CD pipeline setup with Azure DevOps. Suitable for a single app moving off a shared host or aging on-prem server.
• Medium scope ($30,000 to $60,000): Multi-workload migration with auth refactoring, secrets management via Azure Key Vault, and one to two non-trivial integrations. 10 to 16 weeks. Typical for mid-size SaaS or a healthcare app needing HIPAA-aligned storage.
• Large scope ($60,000 to $150,000): Full platform migration with Azure Kubernetes Service, containerization, Azure DevOps pipeline setup, and compliance architecture for HIPAA or TDPSA-regulated workloads. 14 to 20 weeks.

For HIPAA or TDI-regulated scope, add 15 to 25 percent. Each non-trivial integration (EHR, MLS, payment processor) adds $3,000 to $12,000. See the full Azure cloud migration pricing breakdown for detailed estimates by scope type.

How to start working with us

Our intake takes one to two weeks from first contact to signed scope:

1. Discovery call (30 minutes): We ask about your current infrastructure, target state, compliance requirements, and timeline. No sales pitch.
2. Scoping document: We send a written scope of work, timeline, and fixed-price or time-and-materials estimate within five business days.
3. Project start: On signed contract, we begin with a one-week discovery sprint to audit your current environment before writing the migration plan.

Fill in the form below to book a discovery call. We respond within one business day.

Do you work with Austin companies remotely?

Yes. All of our Austin client work is done remotely. We do not have a physical office in Austin or anywhere in the United States.

Our engineers work in IST (India Standard Time), 10.5 to 11.5 hours ahead of CT. We schedule standups and demos at times that work for your Austin team, typically 8 AM to 10 AM CT. We use Microsoft Teams or Slack for async communication. All code, documentation, and deliverables go into client-owned repositories and Azure subscriptions from day one. You own the IP and the infrastructure.

For clients with TDPSA or TDI data handling obligations, we design Azure architectures that keep data in US-based Azure regions (East US, South Central US). We do not route client data through our own infrastructure at any point in the migration process.
