Medical professor at University of Lamar
Resource management in neuroscience has become faster and data-driven and now supports better studies
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.

Automated governance has eliminated shadow spend and now provides clear multi-cloud accountability
Flexera Cloud Cost Management could improve by modernizing the user experience, as many users find the interface feels a bit dated compared to cloud-native competitors such as Vantage or CloudHealth. Another suggestion is to deepen the AI-driven auto-remediation; Flexera Cloud Cost Management is excellent at providing recommendations, but it still requires a manual click to approve or a custom script to execute an action. I suggest simplifying Flexera Cloud Cost Management SaaS platform because Flexera Cloud Cost Management's special sauce is software asset management. Integrating those on-prem licenses with cloud usage can still be complex to set up for a user.

Pros

"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."
"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."
"Flexera Cloud Cost Management has helped my organization save money by 20% to 30%, as previously mentioned."
"Flexera Cloud Cost Management provides real-time live data that allows us to see realistic projections based on trends we anticipate, showing where we could possibly end off by year-end."

Cons

"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."
"Maybe there are some tiny improvements regarding the UI, the configuration aspect, or integration capabilities."
"Flexera Cloud Cost Management can be improved by developing a normal chat interface or application where non-technical users do not have to navigate through Flexera API application or website."
"Flexera Cloud Cost Management could improve by modernizing the user experience, as many users find the interface feels a bit dated compared to cloud-native competitors such as Vantage or CloudHealth."
"While the solution works well, perhaps because we are still in the early stages of becoming familiar with the technology, I would appreciate improvements in the SaaS environment."
