    Serverless360 is a platform to manage and monitor Azure Serverless components related to enterprise integration. In a real-time scenario, the integrated cloud applications are not built with a single technology stack, it typically involves at least 3 or 4 different Azure Services. Currently, Azure Portal is designed more on vertical technology silos and it's difficult to visualize and manage such connected solutions. So Serverless360 is presented by the vendor as a tool that users can depend on…N/A

    We have a Kubernetes cluster spread across multiple cloud providers, including AWS, Google, and Azure. Kubecost consolidates data from all the providers and gives us insights. So instead of jumping between individual dashboards, Kubecost shows everything in one place. It helps us in right-sizing the cluster, which directly saves us costs. Although it gives us cluster insights, we still need to take action manually. It also provides insight into the Kube cluster only, but actual costs depend on other components as well, including databases, storage, etc.

    Serverless360 is a great tool for managing complex Azure serverless environments>it offers comprehensive monitoring,alerting, and automation features that are essential for maintaining the health and performance of our applications.However, for organizations with simpler setups or minimal Azure serverless usage, the advanced capabilities of Serverless360 may not be necessary. Overall it's been a valuable addition to our tool kit

    • Requires some initial configuration to make sure Azure resources are monitored correctly.
    • Needs flexibility in the type of alerts you can setup.
    • It maybe good to have more customized options.

    Our engineers liked the devops dashboard and the initial deployment was very fast which meant the cost-allocation data was available right after deployment which the team further customized and enhanced based on our needs. Version 3.0 fixed a lot of concerns with the backend responsiveness, especially when running heavy multi-cluster api calls

    Among competitors, IBM Kubecost offers deeper insights into cluster metrics. It offers the highest data privacy, as the data stays in your private infrastructure. Although it can't provide Non-K8s cost insights, it still offers some insights based on tags, which is better than any other product.

    Metric monitoring in Serverless360 is the best. It eliminates the lengthy process of manually looking through error logs and immediately performs root cause analysis on problems as they arise giving insight into the Azure environment. The team can foresee and fix issues. Our team could safely transfer the less valued support task to the L1 support person and free up the skilled Azure resources to focus on the development of the business.
