"The solution is good for cloud cost management.""It's stable. For report presentation, it's been fast.""The pricing is rather competitive right now.""The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds.""This solution is fast and very easy to understand, even if you are not a technician.""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.""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 solution is useful for cloud transparency and visibility in reports and dashboards that I have generated, especially the pre-populated dashboards."
