Overall Satisfaction with Apptio Cloudability

We use Apptio Cloudability to actively manage our cloud spend across hundreds of applications. This involves identifying opportunities to reduce or optimize our spend along with holding users actively accountable through a charge back model.
  • It can easily synthesize massive amounts of data into digestible formats
  • The api integrations allow for unique customizations including integration with our CMDB.
  • There is currently no ability to apply global filters over the data in cloudability. Rather users must go through a difficult process to create custom views which they are later able to apply over top of their datasets.
  • Drill functionality does not really exists but appears to be more of an after though add-on. Yes you are able to "drill" but the visuals disappear and even the ability to export the more detailed information.
  • Apptio Cloudability has enabled us to charge back 100% of our cloud spend to our business users and on an automated basis through the use of ApptioOne
  • Apptio Cloudability's transparency and metrics have enabled us to save millions of dollars in cloud spend across our user base.
They have had numerous visualizations that have required bug fixes and graph labels that are not intuitive.
  • ApptioOne
  • Targetprocess
Massive. They have done a great job of constantly building upon their products to ensure a great customer journey that complements itself.
Apptio Cloudability is by far faster and can handle much larger datasets than its competitors, CloudZero and CloudHealth by VMware.

Apptio Cloudability, is a powerful tool and its use case is expanding rapidly with the growing investment within Apptio BI and now the IBM acquisition. It can handle large amounts of data and it provides great levels of customization for how users can interact with the data. Apptio Cloudability, however, does lack in it's dynamic use cases where users might want to actively drill into visualizations or filter the dashboard content. If you are simply looking for data reports it is able to provide great data at fast speeds.
