Cost transparency has improved and finance and IT now share detailed TCO insights
I am mostly concerned about the development side. The development side is very user-friendly, so I would not say there are major factors that the product needs improvement in.

That is the only challenge I have experienced as a developer.

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."
"In short, it helps finance, business, and IT people speak in a common language."

"It is a stable product."
"What I like most about this solution is that it's easy."
"We use Google Cloud Billing to pay for or renew the license of our Google Workspace products."
 

Cons

"However, sometimes with the number of users using the system, there might be a lag in system performance."
"The solution's reporting layer, advanced conditional formatting, and reporting features could be improved."
"Encouraging or providing more out-of-the-box solutions that cater to a wider audience could enhance the overall effectiveness of the application."
"The billing process is strange. It should be automatic."
"At times you will find that the computer engines are freezing or it's about to freeze without any notification or information and it's unable to diagnose where it is hung."
"Google Cloud Billing should have a more user-friendly interface."
"When I want to analyze the information, it would be better, since Google knows what I have used, to only show those items for analysis purposes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It comes with a considerable cost."
"Apptio One is an expensive solution."
