"The most valuable feature of AWS Savings Plans is we can discuss budgets briefly during our confirmation process since we are aware of our usual consumption patterns. Creating budgets in this regard would be beneficial, as it would allow us to consume only what we need, without including reserve instances that do not serve our purpose."
"Transparency and visibility are the key features."
"It provides us visibility, then we can turn around and can give the leadership team more information, which we could not previously give them."
"Each user can have their own dashboard that they want to consume. Instead of having to share one dashboard for multiple users, you can create individual views for each user to view, and that view will contain only their own accounts, which allows for separation of data."
"One of the standout features of the solution is its groups and views functionality. The solution is highly-stable. The solution is highly-scalable. The customer support is good. They can be easily contacted. The initial setup is straightforward. It's an excellent tool, especially when dealing with multiple clouds. It streamlines the process, eliminating the need to check each cloud individually."
"It has already given us insight into how to optimize. So, we are now ramping up steadily its usage."
"The pricing isn't too expensive."
"The tool helps us to resize on AWS correctly."
"The support from IBM is fantastic"
"In the future, it would be interesting if there could be a combination of Savings Plans and some Reserved Servers."
"The visibility of AWS Savings Plans could improve."
"I would like the API functionality to improve. The update time after uploading data could also be improved."
"The API is not well-documented. It is not straightforward and difficult to use. This needs to be improved, as it is very difficult for our developers to develop automation around it."
"In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources."
"There are also some limitations with the dashboards and data representation in Cloudability."
"Cloudability needs to improve on data collection from cloud sources."
"The dashboard needs to include more graphs per team to show what individual teams are spending in a given time period."
"There is always room for improvement in education and training. We are not that mature in terms of our automation. It could help us identify where we could optimize in terms of build."
"I wish there was a feature to temporarily remove certain recommendations from the list for teams that couldn't implement them immediately. I believe Cloudability could improve its automation functionality and enhance cost allocation modeling."
