Onix

Cloud Intel Verdict

Onix is a quintessential “Google Cloud Boutique” that has successfully scaled. For mid-market organizations fully committed to the Google ecosystem, they are often a better fit than a GSI like Accenture because they live and breathe Google. Their dual strength in Workspace (collaboration) and GCP (infrastructure) makes them ideal for companies undergoing a “wall-to-wall” Google transformation.

Strengths Analysis

• Workspace & GCP Synergy: Unlike many partners who treat Google Workspace as a commodity license sale, Onix integrates it into their cloud strategy. This is valuable for organizations trying to change their culture alongside their infrastructure.
• Cost Optimization: They have a strong track record of finding “quick wins” in billing analysis, often funding further modernization through immediate savings.
• Support Culture: Clients consistently praise their responsiveness. They act more like an extension of the internal IT team rather than a distant vendor.

Weaknesses Analysis

• Cloud Native Depth: While competent in lift-and-shift and standard modernization, they are not the first choice for bleeding-edge Kubernetes engineering or complex custom AI model development compared to engineering-heavy firms like DoiT or SADA.
• Multi-Cloud Limits: If your strategy involves significant AWS or Azure footprints, Onix’s singular focus on Google becomes a limitation. They are not a multi-cloud broker.

Ideal Customer Profile

• Size: Mid-market to lower enterprise ($50M - $2B revenue).
• Scenario: Migrating from legacy on-prem to GCP, or moving from O365 to Google Workspace.
• Culture: Values high-touch support over lowest possible hourly rate.
