In my experience, Apptio Cloudability is best suited for a high-level overview of Cost reporting and management. It gives recommendations to optimize your cloud budget. For example, It will give recommendations by analyzing the past trends which types of machines an application should be using for its optimal performance. It also picks machines, and disks that are not used for long and it predicts any cost anomaly detection. It is less appropriate for other small cloud providers and user training.
