Onix Colocation

|---|---|---|
A good finance leader reduces risk while
managing spend. Colocation does both.
Spend Now,
Save More Than Money
CFOs are not afraid of spending. They are afraid of spending twice. Once on what doesn’t work, and again when it fails.
Investing in colocation now avoids the hidden costs that compound silently:
- Unbudgeted downtime
- Emergency repairs
- Power cost inflation
- Audit complications
- Staff churn from infrastructure firefighting
Onix turns all of that into a flat, predictable operating expense. It frees up internal teams, reduces risk exposure, and delivers audit-ready compliance from day one.
Approving colocation today is not a gamble on the future. It is a shield against inevitable cost and complexity.
Real-World Example:
A Ghanaian Financial Institution
A mid-sized financial services firm in Accra had been operating its own server room for over 8 years. After an energy audit and risk review, the CFO realised the costs were escalating and the risks growing.
Their Setup (Before):
- Annual A/C and UPS maintenance: GHS 128,000
- Generator fuel and servicing: GHS 65,000
- IT support and compliance audit time: 400+ hours annually
- Power redundancy: None
- Downtime incidents in 12 months: 3
After Migrating to Onix:
- Colocation cost: GHS 10,000 per month (flat)
- Uptime: 99.995 percent
- Support: 24/7 remote hands, managed maintenance
- Risk exposure: Reduced
- Audit prep time: Cut by 70 percent
"We didn’t just reduce cost. We eliminated chaos,"
their CFO said. "And when the next audit came around, for once we were ready."
