Oil and Gas Company Makes IT Costs Predictable with Cloud-Based Solution

Based in Calgary, Compton Petroleum employs people throughout Alberta, Canada, to support the exploration, development, and production of natural gas, natural gas liquids, and crude oil. With a small IT staff, the company was challenged to provide up-to-date communication and collaboration services to employees. It was also saddled with high fixed costs from on-premises server solutions that did not allow it to adjust its IT costs as the company size changed with market fluctuations. Compton investigated cloud solutions for its communications needs and decided that Microsoft Office 365 offered the best service in terms of cost, delivery, and interoperability with its current solutions. After completing the transition to Office 365, Compton expects to reduce costs and make them more variable, while improving the services it provides to its employees.
