Our mission
Turn it Off was created with a mission to reduce cloud waste. We set up the platform to help businesses save money on wasted cloud resources and become more sustainable businesses.
We follow 3 principles:
-
Focused
Unlike other cloud management platforms, we do not try and be everything for everyone. We do one thing and we do it well – reducing cloud waste!
-
Cost neutral
We’re committed to making sure the app will always be worth the investment. The savings gained from using the tool and benefits to the planet, will always exceed the cost of the platform.
-
Positive action
We believe technology gives us a great opportunity to make a difference. Everything we do needs to have a long term positive impact on the environment.
Who’s behind Turn it Off?
Turn it Off was founded by a team who’ve worked in the cloud industry for the best part of 15 years. One of the things we see regularly is that the promise of cloud being ‘on-demand’ and therefore more cost effective and better for the environment is not always coming to fruition. Controlling cloud usage can be challenging and at times confusing.
The current FinOps and GreenOps models are complex or focus too much on reservations. We wanted to build a light-touch FinOps tool, that is quick to implement and gives users an easy way to turn off idle cloud environments and resources, and turn them back on at the click of a button.
Meet Turn it Off – Our mission is to make the action of turning off cloud based applications easier than turning your light switch off at home.>
