Azure Cost Management is user-friendly compared to other competitors. We can easily present it to non-technical people. Everyone can visualize the insights through the application. The other cloud mobility applications have more technical functionality. Thus, the terminologies become difficult to understand.

We don't actually use the Azure Cost Management features. We have our own capabilities. We put our own technology on top of Azure as Azure doesn't deliver a really good cost optimization, so our customers come to us to enhance what they're potentially doing inside their Azure platform.
We do AWS and Azure. We do it all automatically to identify cost remediation or optimization targets and then put into automation or policy automation to continue to remediate based on tagging, subscriptions, service type, and a whole bunch of other things.
