The Cost of Inaction

How much is your infrastructure costing you?

  • Every hour of unplanned downtime= €5,600 (Gartner)
  • Bad AWS configuration= average 30% overspend (Flexera 2025)
  • Hiring senior DevOps in Berlin= 4–6 months + €120k/year fully loaded
  • Slow deploys (>30 min)= ~€8k/month in engineer time wasted
  • Failed pen-test sitting on shelf= €4M average breach cost (IBM 2024)

These are real numbers. From real reports. We've seen each in 100+ companies. We've fixed each in 80+.

What engineering leaders say

Real outcomes, real people. Names and companies shared with permission.

We migrated to Kubernetes in 8 weeks. Cloud costs dropped 47%, and our team stopped doing 3am incident calls. Web Direct understands the business side, not just engineering.

Andrei M.
CTO · E-commerce Platform, Romania
Client for 2+ years

Their security audit uncovered 7 critical vulnerabilities — including one that would have cost us our PCI DSS certification. Professional, thorough, specific remediation steps.

Elena V.
IT Director · Financial Services, Moldova
3rd project together

Deployment went from a 4-hour manual ordeal to a 12-minute automated pipeline. We now ship 8× per day instead of 2× per week. The ROI paid for the entire engagement in month one.

Dmitri K.
VP of Engineering · SaaS Startup, Germany

After WebDirect set up monitoring with proper alerting, we went from finding out about outages from customers to catching issues 20 minutes before they impact anyone. Worth every euro.

Sergiu T.

Transparent Pricing

Pricing — what to actually expect

We don't hide prices. Procurement teams won't shortlist vendors without visible pricing. Here's the honest range:

Smallest engagement (managed monitoring)€1,490/month
Most common (DevOps as a Service, 50–200 employees)€5,000–€15,000/month
Enterprise (multi-cluster K8s + 24/7 SLA)€25,000–€50,000/month
Fixed-price Sprints (one-time)€4,900–€49,000

Compare: senior DevOps in-house in EU = €8–12k/month salary + €3–5k benefits + 3–6 months recruiting. US shops: typically 2–3× our rates.

All prices in EUR. Excludes cloud infrastructure costs (you pay AWS/GCP directly).

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you start?

Most engagements start within 5 business days. Discovery call → 48-hour proposal → signed contract → engineer assigned. We don't recruit per project — our team is in-house and available.

What does a typical engagement cost?

Most clients: €5,000–15,000/month retainer. Smallest: €1,490/month (managed monitoring). Largest: €50,000+/month (multi-cluster K8s, 24/7 SLA). Fixed-price Sprints: €4,900–€49,000, one-time. We share pricing upfront — no 'contact us for pricing' runaround.

Are you GDPR compliant? Do you sign DPAs?

Yes — DPAs signed with every EU client. Moldova has a GDPR-equivalent law (Law 133/2011, EU-aligned since 2019). EU data residency is available for client workloads. ISO 27001 audit in progress, expected Q4 2026.

What if we want to stop?

Retainers: 30-day notice, no penalty. Sprints: pause between milestones, no exit fee. Staff augmentation: end of current week. No long-term lock-in. No exit fees. Ever.

Why Moldova vs Romania, Poland, or Ukraine?

Cost: 30–40% lower than Romania, 40–50% lower than Poland. Same time zone as Romania (GMT+3). English B2–C1 average across team. EU candidate country (2022). Moldova IT Park residents. Moldova is stable — no geopolitical risk.

Do you work nights and weekends?

24/7 SLA tier: yes, on-call rotation across 3 engineers. Business-hours tier: weekdays 9–18 EET. Emergency escalation available at €100/h for off-hours incidents.

What's your time zone overlap with Western Europe?

GMT+2/+3 — same as Bucharest, Athens, Helsinki. Only +1h from Berlin/Paris/Amsterdam. ~7h daily overlap with London, ~9h with Berlin. No early-morning-only window like India.

What if you don't have the specific skill we need?

We tell you upfront. We have 12+ engineers covering AWS, GCP, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, Pulumi, Python, Go, Node.js. For specialized stacks (Snowflake, Databricks), we partner with vetted boutiques and stay transparent about it.

What about bus factor — what if my engineer leaves?

Every project has a minimum of 2 engineers (primary + backup). Documentation is a contractual deliverable. Onboarding a replacement engineer takes 1–2 weeks max. We've done it — it works.

Do you have client references?

Yes — several clients have agreed to reference calls. Industries: fintech, SaaS, e-commerce. Typical 15-min intro call. Email [email protected] to schedule.
