“Ferramenta útil, porém com algumas falhas e pontos de melhorias”

3.0
Sep 3, 2025
A ferramenta super nos ajudou com o nosso maior problema, que era as inúmeras regras que tínhamos e centralizar os dados, que antes eram espalhados em alguns locais (Power BI, Quicksight, etc). É uma ferramenta que possui uma visão clean e a forma como os dados ficam expostos, na maioria das vezes, é fácil de entender. Porém, a ferramenta temos recentemente, gaps quanto as atualizações dos dados que deveriam ser mais atuais. A ferramenta também tem limitações onde tem muita amarração dos dados, onde nem sempre, é possível criar uma visão totalmente só, precisando de um contato com o fornecedor, para conseguir o que desejamos.

Reviewer Insights for: Pier Cloud FinOps Platform

Pier Cloud FinOps Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

Personalization: Advanced chargeback. We built a driver-based chargeback that ingests multiple data sources - not just cloud dashboards - combining cloud billing and other sources (Datadog, databricks ingestion, MongoDB, Kafka). Flexible allocation rules (tags/accounts/cost-center/shared-services apportionment). Net-effect: faster month-end close, fewer disputes and much better chargeback experience. Autofix automation with safety rails: Policy-driven jobs run daily to execute optimizations. Each action supports full audit logs. Result: lower toil, predictable hygiene, and continuous saving - turning detect into remediate at scale. Closed-loop optimization (beyond dashboards): Prescriptive rightsizing, so insights can translate into action

Like

Exportação dos dados com base nos filtros feitos, dados que ficam disponíveis para diferentes àreas da empresa e a facilitação dos custos de múltiplas nuvens.

Like

- Evolution of the entire product (always evolving according to their own roadmap and listening to customer's feedback); - Dedicated expert partnership for FinOps; - Driven by FinOps Foundation (culture and framework); - Highly customizable; - Centralized information in one place (costs, automation, compliance, finops journey, commitments)

Dislike

Advanced policy parity across clouds: Some advanced capabilities (CCA Rules/Autofix) are AWS-first, with lagging coverage on Azure/OCI. This limits our ability to standandize multi-cloud guardrails. Multi-currency need more flexibility: Localized tax/credits, and retro adjustments sometimes requires manual workarounds to keep finance-grade auditability Forecasting explainability: Accuracy is solid, but the drives behind forecast deltas aren't always transparent for Finance. Clearer why narratives and scenarios would help

Dislike

Gaps referente aos custos, ultimamente está mostrando os custos de 2, 3 dias atrás, sendo que é D-1, dados amarrados, o que nem sempre é possível criar algo do zero até o final sem precisar de ajuda do fornecedor e erros que ocorrem de vez em quando, como nenhum dado mostrando no workspace, apenas uma mensagem de erro.

Dislike

- Sometimes to make some corrections/changes in the tool, we become dependent on their team; - For some connections/integrations, we had some trouble at the beginning; - User experience in customization could be a little confusing for someone new.

    Aug 28, 2025
    Since of the first contact that we did with Pier Cloud, our experience was good, the demo, really using the tool, the features, looking how the tool would be with our real data, our insights, major problems that we needed to solve it. As a FinOps management platform, Pier Cloud has seen a very interesting growth since we hired them, always listening to the customer experience and problems, trying to solve it with native features or creating a new one in the backlog.
