Key learnings from peers

Last updated Sep 3, 2024

Valuable Features

"The interface is good and user-friendly, allowing us to manage it proactively and efficiently. We use the budgeting and forecasting functions for financial planning, which work fine."
"The product has helped save costs for the company."
"It has predictive analysis. It can forecast based on the costs associated with the particular architecture and how often they use it, estimating how much they'll spend."

Room for Improvement

"I'd like to see improvements in tracking billing and costs. It would be helpful to have alerts generated by instance and location. We use the cloud for multiple programs, and it's difficult to segregate costs and get budgets from customers. We have to tag each instance, which is time-consuming. Automation and proactive alerts by instance or instance IDs would be beneficial."
"The maintenance of the product by Azure's support team is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The response time of customer support can be improved."

Pricing

"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten - the price could be lower."
"Compared to competitors, it's cost-effective. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"We are using pay-as-you-go licenses mostly for our customers."

These insights are based on the in-depth reviews provided by peers to help you make a better buying decision.
