"The product provides visibility into what we are consuming."
"Our customers use it and like it."
"Transparency and visibility are the key features."
"It provides us visibility, then we can turn around and can give the leadership team more information, which we could not previously give them."
"One of the standout features of the solution is its groups and views functionality. The solution is highly-stable. The solution is highly-scalable. The customer support is good. They can be easily contacted. The initial setup is straightforward. It's an excellent tool, especially when dealing with multiple clouds. It streamlines the process, eliminating the need to check each cloud individually."
"The sizing recommendation will look, and say, "You are only using this at 80%," then recommend a better fit for you."
"The pricing isn't too expensive."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to create reports and dashboards."
"We use the product to get a detailed level of transparency on the cloud strengths."

"Be wary of unnecessary costs."
"The affordability of licenses and subscription fees is a critical consideration, as not all companies can easily manage the cost of expensive licenses."
"We would like them to have a linear regression, so we can be predictive for budgets, allocations, and the year's follow ups. We also want to have a longer window of analytics with better certainty that our workload will fit the model, not just in a two week window."
"In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources."
"I wish there was a feature to temporarily remove certain recommendations from the list for teams that couldn't implement them immediately. I believe Cloudability could improve its automation functionality and enhance cost allocation modeling."
"The dashboard needs to include more graphs per team to show what individual teams are spending in a given time period."
"They can improve the custom range of the network."
"Cloudability needs to focus on more cloud providers."
"The API is not well-documented. It is not straightforward and difficult to use. This needs to be improved, as it is very difficult for our developers to develop automation around it."
"There is always room for improvement in education and training. We are not that mature in terms of our automation. It could help us identify where we could optimize in terms of build."
