Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloudability
We use IBM Cloudability for tracking cloud spend and for giving business owners the ability to monitor their own department's spending. We needed a way to be able to track spending and empower business owners to make informed decisions about cloud spend.
Pros
- giving granular, daily tracking of cloud spend
- gives access to different layers of data to users
- integrates with the cloud to pull data
Cons
- Cloudability alone has limited graphing abilities, but I am aware of the other tools that may do this better
- It is difficult to customize some things like colors
- Business groupings can be tricky to set up if the logic is not simple
- We have had some savings from the rightsizing (termination of unused resources)
- We also had some savings from rightsizing to smaller VMs
- Cloudability has been able to increase our awareness and the transparency of our cloud spend
Power BI is a powerful tool for visualization. Apptio does a great job at managing the data from the cloud spend, but Power BI can create much better and more complex visualizations
