We do things a bit differently compared to the other cloud spend management tools on the market:
1) Your cost data stays inside your organization
Cost data is highly sensitive and confidential. Other tools extract your data and give you access to their SaaS app. With CloudMonitor, you own your cost analytics and it lives in your Azure cloud.
2) Map your Business Units/Projects to flexible Cost Groups
Allocating costs and chargeback is essential and it needs to be done by Business Unit or Cost Centre. CloudMonitor uses native Cost Groups (i.e, no tagging) as logical groupings of costs by business function.
3) Customize Power BI reports to suit your business
Our reports cover most cost scenarios; however, you can easily build your own reports on top of the CloudMonitor cost analytics in Power BI to suit your business requirements and IT spend reporting needs.
4) Easier procurement & security clearance with Microsoft Marketplace
Stay on the freemium version or purchase your CloudMonitor subscription directly from Microsoft in the Azure Marketplace. As a Microsoft Certified Preferred Solution, there are no 3rd party vendor contracts, SOWs or procurement headaches.
5) Add accountability and awareness into your Development workflow from Day 1
Cost and security need to be considered as non-functional requirements during development. The CloudMonitor Bot alerts and educates your Dev team during your project so costs are not an afterthought for the Production Ops team.
