Special Announcement
Introducing Analytics by PointFive

Organizations are used to working with a wide variety of dashboards across different use cases. A CEO wants to know cost trends or request a forecast for the next month, while a FinOps practitioner may need to identify and drill down into outliers or spikes in cost. And these are only a few of the myriad use cases dashboards may cover.

Across the board, tools understand this and provide users with some level of personalization and customization to get the information they may need. However, it’s not that simple. Templates, limited customization and simpler editing capabilities may limit what kind of data is available and how it appears. They can communicate cost savings and cloud waste reduction opportunities to a certain extent.

What if you could create your own dashboard? What if you had the power to easily build the dashboards and reports you need from square one?

Enter PointFive’s Analytics.

What is PointFive’s Analytics?

PointFive’s Analytics enables organizations to build the dashboards of their dreams, from the start, with the analytics of their choice. We’ve learned from our own customers the power of having specific, useful analytics for a variety of use cases. Today’s tools do a solid job of providing insight and analytics into the most common use cases so organizations can better understand and visualize their costs and resources — but they lack the flexibility to meet any purpose their stakeholders might need.

With analytics, we empower team members to champion efficiency and reduce costs. No matter how unique or specific the need, it allows your teams to create the perfect visualization.

Analytics gives you the utmost level of customization and visualization, but without the need for increased technical expertise. You don’t need to be fluent in SQL to create the dashboards you and your teams want and need. With a clean, intuitive interface for creating dashboards and charts, you can easily drag and drop data columns to be used as the metric to display, its aggregate function and any dimension by which you want to group the information. We do all of this using a dataset that we build and maintain for you, which includes everything from cost and usage metrics to performance metrics, resource attributes and even savings opportunities uncovered through the PointFive platform.

Who benefits from this feature? 

Analytics allows you to not only create your own dashboards, but set a defined schedule for sharing them with all of your stakeholders, alongside a granular level of control over who you share them with, whether an individual or a team. You decide who sees what and when. It’s easy, fast, and agile, and it arms your team with the insights they need to obtain visibility and understanding of cloud spending and the actionable ways to mitigate it.
