"Good control features and user interface."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to create reports and dashboards."
"The most crucial feature in reducing my cloud costs has been the rightsizing recommendations, along with the dashboards that track reserved instance spending coverage and utilization. As for Cloudability's integration with our existing cloud infrastructure, it's not integrated directly into our AWS infrastructure but rather reads and pulls data from it, providing valuable insights and analysis for cost management."
"The tool helps us to resize on AWS correctly."
"Transparency and visibility are the key features."
"We use the product to get a detailed level of transparency on the cloud strengths."
"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."
"The pricing isn't too expensive."
"The support from IBM is fantastic"
"The solution could improve its APIs to access the customer application."
"The tool's pricing should be made cheaper."

"The solution's technical support should be faster, more knowledgeable, and customer-friendly."
"Cloudability needs to improve on data collection from cloud sources."
"In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources."
"We would like them to have a linear regression, so we can be predictive for budgets, allocations, and the year's follow ups. We also want to have a longer window of analytics with better certainty that our workload will fit the model, not just in a two week window."
"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."
"We have dealt with a few technical support people where we ask for one thing and they might not deliver straightaway. It seems like they are a stretched across multiple customers."
"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."
"Right now, what we're doing is we are manually putting the data in it, which is something which we don't like about Cloudability."
"There are also some limitations with the dashboards and data representation in Cloudability."
