"This solution is fast and very easy to understand, even if you are not a technician."
"The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds."

"The solution is good for cloud cost management."
"It's stable. For report presentation, it's been fast."
"Cloudability needs to focus on more cloud providers."

"I would like the API functionality to improve. The update time after uploading data could also be improved."
"In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources."

"Right now, what we're doing is we are manually putting the data in it, which is something which we don't like about Cloudability."
"It would be helpful to have a mobile version or a tablet version, especially for people who are outside of the office."
"The export features regarding CSV files and specifically around identifying savings plans have room for improvement, as well as the drill-down features for reservation utilization."
"The Perspectives feature could be better."
"CloudHealth needs to start building out Turbonomics-types of features that help the customers who are using CloudHealth really understand everything down to the server level, the virtual machine level."
"I would like to see better integration from CloudHealth to create easier setup and implementation."
"If you are working with the OS you need help and other connectors to get more information."
