We have merged our different products into eight solutions that are under the opsZero umbrella. We have always been a DevOps Agency and while we wanted to move towards a SaaS model we realized that we just enjoy the services business model. It allows us to get more involved with our customers versus just trying to optimize for cash flow, and we really just want to help our customers in a broader way than what a pure SaaS model would entail.

Further, we believe that SaaS has become saturated. There is a SaaS solution for nearly everything and we are getting to a point of diminishing returns. We missed the boat on the SaaS train, but honestly we are not super worried about it. We think embedding deeper with customers and becoming long term partners is more meaningful for us.

So we are largely deprecating our existing SaaS tooling and moving back to what we are at our core: a DevOps Agency.

Our focus is not high growth, but sustainable growth working at a steady pace helping our customers throughout their growth. This model is antithesis is complexity. We actually want to reduce the complexity of our offering.

  • DevOps. The basis of our go to market. We do all DevOps with OpenTofu/Terraform as the basis.
  • Kubernetes. Kubernetes is our bread and butter. We will focus on making this the core of our value. Moving Windows, Linux, etc. workloads to Kubernetes is a primary goal.
  • Identity. Setup and manage identity solutions.
  • Compliance. Focusing on HIPAA, SOC2, PCI-DSS, etc.
  • Datasets. Build and host core datasets for companies that want to use these for their own specific use cases.
  • DBA. Database and performance tuning to lower the cost of compute for companies.
  • AI. Low cost AI compute solutions such as running workloads on Macs, etc.
  • FinOps. Resale business, but we will likely limit to just the Cloud.
