In my company, we are overall on your Azure, so we have our own Microsoft Azure. Our organization has a deployment into Azure itself, and we have the entire process set up on Azure. We are also using different products from Microsoft. I think, basically, it has been my company's cloud investment for a very long time.
Once we deploy customer resources, we use Azure Cost Management to monitor their current and future cost budgets. We submit those estimates about the future and the current user metrics to the customer.
We use the solution for comparing different service providers and providing business insights into the likely costs associated with their solutions. This includes conducting cost-benefit analysis, evaluating ROI, managing databases, and more.
We use it to manage our costs, setting triggers in case our costs go over budget based on our usage. So, it's primarily for our Azure usage and not for any other external costs. It's not something we use every day. The features are somewhat limited. I mainly use it to check the overall cost of the services we use.
I don't use Cost Management, but I help our customers use it. It does what it says on the tin: it manages costs. We have hundreds of thousands of users. Every customer uses it.
Azure Cost Management is being used for the infrastructure services our customers have in terms of how we can best optimize them and how we can propose the solution to customers, for example, if there are on-premises workloads that can be moved to the cloud, etc.

We primarily sell the solution to our clients. We also have our own solution. We do cost reporting including budgets and budget alerts and unused services like SQL databases, ABMs, managed disk, Cosmos DB, service plan and usage, and the detailing of all of that.
We use this solution to help with setting up our yearly budget. We look at how much we are currently using on a monthly basis how and close we are to meeting the monthly budget. If we find that we are going over then it helps to adjust the yearly budget. We also look at what resources have been used more extensively in the current month as opposed to last. The dashboard allows us to make these comparisons. From here, we can optimize resources and reduce costs. In the end, we also develop new resources. Ideally, we can look ahead to see what we can expect by making changes to certain resources. This is done by looking back at previous months and seeing what the effects were for other changes. Our second use case has to do with projecting profitability by looking at trends. We are looking at one-year relationships to search for tending patterns.
We use Azure Cost Management to see how much we are spending as well as how much the client is spending. That is the only use case for Azure Cost Management.
