Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloudability

Pros

  • Cost Visibility & Forecasting
  • Commitments & Discount Optimization
  • IBM Cloudability has delivered a positive ROI by improving cost visibility, optimizing commitment usage, and aligning finance and engineering on cloud spend.
  • While the initial setup and tagging requirements added complexity, the long-term savings and forecasting accuracy have more than offset the effort.
Overall, it has been a net positive for our cloud financial management objectives.
Apptio Cloudability (pre-IBM acquisition), CloudHealth by VMware, AWS Cost Explorer, and Azure Cost Management. Each has its strengths, but Cloudability stood out for its multi-cloud coverage, commitment discount optimization, and finance-friendly reporting capabilities.
