Why Cloud Cost Management by Altitude 365?
Cloud services are purchased on a user level and by using our report you will get full view of where the costs are allocated. This helps you get control of costs and to get an organized and up to date AAD.
How?
We retrieve information by setting up a service account in your AAD. The service account does not need any special rights or even licenses. A PowerShell script runs in Azure Automation and locks the information to your own, encrypted Azure SQL database at Altitude 365. The data is gathered daily and updates the Power BI report which is published to a dedicated area in our environment and shared with appointed persons within your organization.
What you get
The report consists of a number of pages with different focus areas.
You start by setting the overall filters to base the report on relevant information for you.
There are a number of key values to filter on. Once you decide the areas you find most important for your organization to focus on, you will be able to use the report to sort and filter areas to act on.
Whether it’s just to find users with incorrect information in AD or running a report on the costs allocated per department within your organization, our Cloud Cost Management is the report for you!
