Pebble introduces Hippo: a full grip on cloud costs

Pebble, a specialist in cloud, data & AI, and software solutions, introduces Hippo: the solution for getting control over your Microsoft Cloud spending.

Hippo provides full transparency into cloud costs and immediately identifies savings opportunities. This helps organizations eliminate unnecessary expenses, optimize cloud investments, and structurally free up budget for innovation and growth.

Thijs Derks, co-founder of Pebble: "We see that many customers struggle to gain control over cloud and licensing costs. Operational budgets are under pressure, while AI, security, and modernization of the IT landscape continue to drive up costs. This calls for a different approach."

Pebble continues to focus on specialized solutions in close partnership with its customers. Hippo was created in response to the growing need among organizations to gain better control over cloud spending.

Rick van den Hoogenhof brings many years of experience in reselling, contracting, and cloud cost optimization from his background at cloud giant Copaco. He is ultimately responsible for Hippo.

Rick van den Hoogenhof: "Within Pebble, everyone is accustomed to working based on data and insights. With Hippo, we apply this approach and offer a transparent, data-driven alternative to Managed Services Providers and Large Service Providers."

What makes the approach unique is the way Hippo looks at costs. The solution makes it possible to allocate costs to an application or business process rather than assigning them solely to a technical cloud service.

Hippo and Pebble hold Microsoft's Data & AI and Digital & App Innovation solution designations, as well as the Analytics on Azure specialization.
