Daily insights have reduced cloud waste and now guide cost, security, and performance decisions
The best features Azure Advisor offers are its personalized recommendations, cost optimization, and centralized dashboard, as it continuously analyzes our environment and provides actionable insights across cost, performance, security, reliability, and operational excellence. I use the cost optimization feature of Azure Advisor most frequently because it directly helps identify underutilized or idle resources and provides clear recommendations to reduce unnecessary cloud spending, which has an immediate impact on budget control and overall efficiency. Additionally, I find the security and reliability recommendations of Azure Advisor very valuable as they help proactively identify risks, enforce best practices, and ensure high availability, which strengthens overall cloud governance and operational stability. Azure Advisor has positively impacted our organization by reducing cloud costs through right-sizing and removing unused resources, improving performance with optimization recommendations. Using Azure Advisor, we observe around twenty to thirty percent cost savings through right-sizing virtual machines and removing idle resources, along with improved performance and availability due to optimized configuration and proactive recommendations.

Has helped define budget limits and monitor cost impact during long-term solution planning
There are areas in Azure Cost Management that could be improved; sometimes, as a start user or junior developer, if I try to understand which service consumed how much cost and look at different charts in the dashboards, it's difficult to understand which chart is representing what. Those interfaces could be made simpler. I'm not much into analytics patterns, so Azure Cost Management's Cost Analytics feature hasn't particularly helped my organization understand spending patterns.
