Hyperglance scales well for enterprise use, but some users report UI lag with numerous resources and appreciate AWS Marketplace pricing.
Cloudability's scalability is excellent because it can link with as few as one cloud account to thousands of cloud accounts, so there are no issues there.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I have not experienced any scalability issues.
Platform Engineer at Treasury Wine Estates
Regarding Apptio Cloudability's scalability, on a scale of one to 10, I would rate it probably a seven to eight.
Global Finops Cloud Optimisation For Hsbc Lead at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
As our project size grows, Hyperglance: Up to 5000 Resources [Pay as you go] helps us to keep them under control from a financial perspective.
Data Science at Areksoft Technologies
The scalability of Hyperglance is definitely good, as it allows you to add resources—2,000, 3,000, 5,000, 10,000—depending on the licensing and billing model we use.
Founding Member at Flash
Some users report that it has a lag and slow loading time when visualizing a large resource count.

Room For Improvement

Apptio Cloudability needs affordability improvements, dashboard simplification, API enhancements, better support, automation, and broader optimization for Google.
Users seek improved speed, intuitive interface, deeper integrations, better access controls, mobile app, customization, cost efficiency, visibility, and analytics.
I've found that Groups is basically unusable because if it can't be used everywhere, you would have to run both group-based access control and direct user-based access control at the same time, which doesn't make any sense.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I believe that automating all manual processes in Cloudability would be beneficial, providing a proactive prescriptive analysis on what needs to be done to lower costs.
Enterprise Data Architect at LTIMindtree
It would be beneficial if we could use resource tags to provide more fine-grained visibility.
Digital Marketing, Marketing Technology & Analytics Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Customizable dashboards and reporting are needed because teams have different priorities, such as security versus cost versus uptime, and want dashboards tailored to them.
Senior System Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Simplifying the learning process would help teams adopt the platform faster and maximize its value sooner.
Associate Systems Engineer at Dhanyaayai Enterprises Pvt Ltd
The current limitations in Hyperglance: Up to 5000 Resources [Pay as you go] are heavily focused on cloud environments and may not offer the same visibility in hybrid infrastructure.
Data Science at Areksoft Technologies
 

Setup Cost

Enterprise customers find Apptio Cloudability costly but valuable, especially for large organizations utilizing its advanced features and automation.
Hyperglance's flexible pricing and substantial ROI make it a preferred choice for large enterprises managing extensive cloud resources.
If you are not going to use a lot of the automation that comes with the Turbonomics, with the cost findings and the ability to turn machines on and off and all these different things, it is probably not worth paying for Premium.
Platform Engineer at Treasury Wine Estates
Compared to the rest of the industry, they may be a little more expensive than some other FinOps tools.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Often the ROI from visibility, security posture, and cost insight outweighs raw licensing costs.
Senior System Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Since the cost increases with resource count, it helps to understand how many resources you will be monitoring and whether you will need to scale soon.
Data Analyst at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees
The subscription fee for Hyperglance: Up to 5000 Resources [Pay as you go] was around $180 to $200.

Valuable Features

Apptio Cloudability offers advanced optimization, cost visibility, customizable dashboards, and tools for efficient multi-cloud management and cost control.
Hyperglance streamlines cloud management with visualization, cost optimization, automation, compliance checks, and integration for improved efficiency and scalability.
The forecasting feature has helped me understand how the resources are utilized and how the cost is burned, and then I use it to make changes to keep the cost in control.
Digital Marketing, Marketing Technology & Analytics Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
The Views feature is also beneficial because lots of teams may use Cloudability within an organization, allowing users to segregate data to particular Views so they are only looking at what's relevant to them.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Apptio Cloudability has positively impacted my organization by providing cloud cost visibility, allowing there to be trust in those numbers, providing showback and chargeback capabilities, and ensuring that cloud costs are fully understood.
Global Finops Cloud Optimisation For Hsbc Lead at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Hyperglance: Up to 5000 Resources [Pay as you go] provided a visual representation of our cloud resources and usage, showing which EC2 instances were underutilized or overprovisioned.
Data Science at Areksoft Technologies
Hyperglance has positively impacted our organization by helping us with agentless and self-hosted deployments, which has saved 38% time for deployments that we used to do manually.
Founding Member at Flash
The cost insights are also very useful for spotting underutilized resources and optimizing spending, which has helped us manage our cloud budget more effectively.

Platform Engineer at Treasury Wine Estates
Finops platform has uncovered waste, supports right-sizing, and improves contract negotiations
I think Apptio Cloudability is a really very good platform for costing. I do understand it can be cost-prohibitive to buy the license to use Apptio Cloudability because of the way it charges. If you are not a big enough company, I can understand that. Apptio Cloudability might want to look at costing models for smaller businesses that cannot afford Apptio Cloudability or Apptio Cloudability Premium. I believe Premium is about one hundred thousand dollars or so in US dollars, and Apptio Cloudability I believe is a little bit less than that. However, there are small businesses out there that will not be able to afford either option. I wonder if that is a market to target, to look at a smaller model of Apptio Cloudability or at least a smaller costing model that could help those businesses as well. The other thing is that there are just a few anomalies inside Apptio Cloudability that I think can definitely be improved. It seems a really small thing, but when you are using it, it can actually be quite a big thing. Since Turbonomic has been integrated with Apptio Cloudability, as good as that is to be able to get those different costing figures and larger savings, it does not give the ability to have an instant Jira ticket integration with the Turbonomic costings or the advanced costing, if you would call it, inside Apptio Cloudability Premium. In the basic costings, you can use Jira and you can open up a Jira ticket and you can have all this information straight from Apptio Cloudability straight in the Jira ticket, assign it to someone, and then someone is working on it. You cannot do that in Turbonomic at the moment. I am not really sure why. Obviously, there is some sort of development issue behind the scenes, I imagine, with the way that Turbonomic works compared to the basic costing. It would be a huge advantage to be able to do that, to just open a Jira ticket, have someone assigned to it, and then proceed forward. I definitely think they should look at that.

Cloud governance has improved and teams optimize costs with automated real-time visibility
Hyperglance features help in codeless automation, which means we can fix common issues and optimize resources without doing any coding. Hyperglance has positively impacted our organization by helping us with agentless and self-hosted deployments, which has saved 38% time for deployments that we used to do manually. The automated process has saved us time and money as we cut resources. In the metrics we have tracked, we have saved 22% in costs. The time and cost savings from Hyperglance have allowed our team to focus on other projects and improved our workflow. Hyperglance has helped us save on cost, improve efficiency, and reduce manual work while enabling real-time compliance checks with very good features. We have saved a lot of time and resources by reducing the manual work which the new team needs to do. Now the team is occupied in other work and they are more productive, providing us more user stories in the organization.
