Overall Satisfaction with Apptio Cloudability

I have been using Apptio Cloudability mostly to drill down on kubernetes (EK8) cloud costs, ranging from containers usage to amortized and idle costs analysis, supported with a set of filters to support views by region or type of services in place. Dashboards are pretty easy to create and provide a good user experience.
  • Costs transparency
  • Costs exploratory analysis
  • Dashboards easy to create and use
  • Combine containers usage information with costs in a single dashboard
  • Dynamic temporal filters (last x days)
  • Positive impact on costs by supporting a complete cost analysis & tracking
Based on my usage, I would split Apptio Cloudability usability into two parts: 1) dashboards/reports, pretty straightforward to use and very with a good user experience, both creating and using the dashboards; nevertheless, the organization of my reports could be improved, as with multiple reports it becomes hard to find what we are looking for; and 2) insights, that provide good insights but is hard to translate those insights into personalized dashboards/reports

Apptio Cloudability is a truly helpful tool for gathering data and getting insights on cloud costs when such information is typically hidden/hard to analyse on the cloud providers' platforms. Although Apptio Cloudability as a product has a long way ahead, it has consistently shown progress by the set of new good features being released. Keep up like this!
