What Does Moving to the Cloud Actually Cost You — and What Do You Get Back?
IDC interviewed 10 European organisations running IONOS CLOUD in production. Here's what they found.
The pressure is real: IT teams stretched thin on maintenance, infrastructure budgets that are hard to forecast, and regulated buyers who demand proof of EU data residency before a deal can even start.
To find out what moving to IONOS CLOUD actually delivers, IDC conducted structured before-and-after interviews with 10 European organisations — spanning SaaS, healthcare, cybersecurity, IT services and more.

The results are specific, methodologically rigorous, and built for conversations with finance and the board.
On average, organisations achieved:
- 167% three-year return on investment
- Payback in under 6 months
- €377,900 in average annual benefit per organisation — across infrastructure cost savings, IT and helpdesk efficiency, compliance, and new revenue in regulated markets
- 58% reduction in IT administration effort — engineers working on products, not maintenance
- 74% fewer unplanned downtime incidents
- EU data sovereignty turned from a compliance cost into a sales credential — 8 of 10 organisations actively resell it to their own customers
