A highly stable and scalable solution that provides good out-of-the-box reporting
I am using the latest version of Apptio One. Apptio One is deployed on-cloud in our organization. Apptio One's maintenance involves validating the model and the monthly data loads. I would recommend Apptio One to other users. Before choosing Apptio One, users should ensure they align their use cases to achieve specific and measurable targets. Overall, I rate Apptio One ten out of ten.

From my experience now, Archera has a very good program and useful tools. It is great, but as I said earlier, you can show more through social networks, sites, or training to help people use these tools. Formation is more specific. How can people such as me study and learn more about your program? Initially, they are very happy with Archera, which I appreciate. But perhaps if we can use the tool with more than one group of people and have shared information, that would be very good. If you understand me, it is about training and allowing more people to use it simultaneously. I see that when they are using it in their department, this group has maybe ten or twelve people who know about it. When I saw that, I thought it was incredible, and I want more information about it. They have given me information, but I want to learn by myself.

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."
"The TBM model and the out-of-the-box reporting are the most valuable features of Apptio One."
"With Apptio One, the advantage lies in its no-code approach, eliminating the need to write scripts for data retrieval."
"Archera is an all-in-one unit; all work is done in one specific way, which is very good for me."
"The platform is very user-friendly, and it's helpful to have all the tools readily available without needing to send an email or do extra work."
"Using the product is a very smooth process, and they help you every step of the way, so it has been great and will not be hard for anyone to join and start using the product."
 

Cons

"The solution's reporting layer, advanced conditional formatting, and reporting features could be improved."
"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."
"Encouraging or providing more out-of-the-box solutions that cater to a wider audience could enhance the overall effectiveness of the application."
"Maybe there are some tiny improvements regarding the UI, the configuration aspect, or integration capabilities."
"We don't have issues. We discussed with them that we wanted to have other clouds implemented with us, and they have been very helpful, going step by step in solving that issue."
"From my experience now, Archera has a very good program and useful tools. It is great, but as I said earlier, you can show more through social networks, sites, or training to help people use these tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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