IBM cloudability helped us to do some substantial costs savings on AWS thanks to accurate resources righsizing recommendations
We also appreciate the possibility of email alerts on spending anomalies, it helps us to be more reactive to find the root cause

Cloudability - Our route to financial understanding in Cloud
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to be able to pull in data from multiple Cloud vendors and review the entire spend in one location simply cannot be underestimated. Using Cloud Financial Planning daily gives us the ability to work more closely with the business to directly recognise, validate and manage our cloud spend. The ability to split this down in a business focussed way that meets our requirement and financial requirement, makes this a go to product. As a cloud based product it was easy to integrate within our existing environment. Having resource alligned to us to help when things have been challenging has also been hugely beneficial.

The move for reporting to BI has not been the most straight forward and as the product is constantly being updated and upgraded sometimes you can feel a little overwelmed by new functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is enabling us to view across ourt cloud vendors all within a single pane of glass. It helps us to crosscharge and validate usage and therefore spend with the various business teams.
