We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The TBM model and the out-of-the-box reporting are the most valuable features of Apptio One.""Its most significant value lies in its ease of use which extends to both configuration and the subsequent deployment of additional components.""With Apptio One, the advantage lies in its no-code approach, eliminating the need to write scripts for data retrieval."

"We use dashboards quite heavily, but one of the features that have really stood out is some of the policies we've created to alert us of particular situations.""It's stable. For report presentation, it's been fast.""The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds.""We are able to create an internal price of the product that we can then sell to clients. We get the cost plan at a good discount and then resell it with a mark up to our enterprise-level clients. This flexibility in pricing is one of the solution's best features.""The pricing is rather competitive right now.""The solution is useful for cloud transparency and visibility in reports and dashboards that I have generated, especially the pre-populated dashboards.""The most valuable thing I have found is the cost saving recommendations""This solution is fast and very easy to understand, even if you are not a technician."

Cons
"The solution's reporting layer, advanced conditional formatting, and reporting features could be improved.""Encouraging or providing more out-of-the-box solutions that cater to a wider audience could enhance the overall effectiveness of the application.""However, a notable challenge is the requirement to obtain consistent raw data, especially when operating in multiple regions with varying data sets. Each region may have distinct field names or data setups, necessitating the standardization of data before loading it into Apptio One. In Apptio One, there are areas for improvement, particularly in addressing potential bugs. An instance of this is observed when transitioning changes from the development region to the staging or production region. In instances with larger datasets, the calculation process may experience delays. Once the calculation concludes, the process proceeds to the subsequent region, whether it be staging or production."

"The solution doesn't offer the best functionality, unfortunately. Some features just simply aren't on offer. The solution needs to offer more product milestones.""If you are working with the OS you need help and other connectors to get more information.""The performance and accuracy of Cloud Health need to be improved.""I would like to see better integration from CloudHealth to create easier setup and implementation.""The export features regarding CSV files and specifically around identifying savings plans have room for improvement, as well as the drill-down features for reservation utilization.""The Perspectives feature could be better.""CloudHealth needs to start building out Turbonomics-types of features that help the customers who are using CloudHealth really understand everything down to the server level, the virtual machine level.""They should provide information or tools to tune the cloud resources according to the environment size."
