Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""The TBM model and the out-of-the-box reporting are the most valuable features of Apptio One."

"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.""Transparency and visibility are the key features.""The tool helps us to resize on AWS correctly.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its ability to create reports and dashboards.""The pricing isn't too expensive.""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 provides us visibility, then we can turn around and can give the leadership team more information, which we could not previously give them.""The sizing recommendation will look, and say, "You are only using this at 80%," then recommend a better fit for you."

Cons
"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's reporting layer, advanced conditional formatting, and reporting features could be improved."

"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.""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.""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.""I would like the API functionality to improve. The update time after uploading data could also be improved.""Cloudability needs to improve on data collection from cloud sources.""Cloudability needs to focus on more cloud providers.""In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources.""They can improve the custom range of the network."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It comes with a considerable cost."
  • "Regarding the pricing structure for various products within Apptio, such as APE One or APE One Plus, the cost is intricately tied to the selected license. There are two distinct types of licenses available. Opting for the basic license provides access to APT1, while an alternative license, known as APL One Plus, encompasses additional features like Cloudability and other components. The specific features accessible depend on the chosen license."
  • "Apptio One is an expensive solution."

  • "My team is one of the most expensive teams, and we look at it quite a bit. We have probably easily saved around $400,000 USD a year."
  • "It justifies the cost and is worth it."
