Transparency and visibility into all cloud costs in central place
What do you like best about the product?
You can see all your cloud costs/usage in one place
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting is cumbersome-time consuming to create customized reports
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility of our cloud spend
Good self service tools for looking at cloud costs
What do you like best about the product?
I like how people are able to see their cloud costs and opportunities through Cloudability through various charts and reports.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having to reprocess data when account mappings or business metrics change (rather than it being instantaneous)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It lets us group accounts from multiple csp into specific tags and see those costs in one view. It benefits managers and engineers who want to view those details and share those betweens one another.
Unmatched User Experience for Cloud Data Clarity
What do you like best about the product?
It's a really intuitive software, it's easy to teach people how it works. It also cleans up the noise with the GL by providing only the data you're asking to see. It's a clean UI and is organized very well. The rightsizing recommendations have provided a lot of benefits to our team and the newly added snoozing functionality is a great help when looking at potential savings! We have some other tools where we just retrieve the data they provide via APIs since their UI is too convoluted, but we never run into that issue with Cloudability. Lastly, their APIs are a huge help to our team when we've needed to pull the data into our custom internal reporting.
What do you dislike about the product?
When creating a dashboard, you can't bring multiple datasets into the same dashboard. Cloudability works in segmented tabs, so rightsizing lives on one page, cloud spend lives on another, same with budgeting / forecasting. It would be beneficial if they could bring it all together in one system, so end users could see a mix of datasets in one dashboard. Apptio BI has been a great solution to this problem from the initial tests we've had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
our organization built an internal tool where users had to check their cloud spend account by account. However, cloudability lets you create views, which has been really beneficial for team leads that manage 20+ accounts.
CCF Don Teolis cloudability review
What do you like best about the product?
I think it's solving a problem that is only going to keep getting bigger in a user friendly interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are only in a pov so I cannot answer that accurately
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think it will help us organize our cloud spend as it continues to grow
Financial Tool for Engineers
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to forget with my finance background that engineers don't speak the same language. I love that Cloudability allows for the reporting of both financial and usage metrics so we can introduce the engineers to the finance side. I also appreciate how everything I need the engineers to look at and consider resides in one tool and also allows for self-serivce.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish that views didn't have to be created based on Account ID or Name to filter down all of the tool (Anomaly and Rightsizing).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our engineers had no visibility prior to this tool on what their projects were costing our company or what levers could be pulled to adjust their cost.
