Tools to calculate cost

  • The pricing calculator and the total cost of ownership (TCO) calculator are two calculators that help you understand potential Azure expenses.

Pricing Calculator

  • The pricing calculator is designed to give you an estimated cost for provisioning resources in Azure.
  • The Pricing calculator is for information purposes only. The prices are only an estimate. Nothing is provisioned when you add resources to the pricing calculator, and you won't be charged for any services you select.

TCO calculator

  • The TCO calculator is designed to help you compare the costs for running an on-premises infrastructure to an Azure Cloud infrastructure.
  • With the TCO calculator, you enter your configuration, add in assumptions like power and IT labor costs, and are presented with an estimation of the cost difference to run the same environment in your current datacenter or in Azure.
