Advice Feature

Note:
The Advice feature allows you to get customized recommendations on potential savings and security issues to manage your company’s expenses in relation to your business needs.

Recommendations (i.e. advice) are generated for connected applications or cloud providers. To receive automatic advice, connect applications and clouds you want to monitor.

The Savings advice category covers issues related to annual potential savings that the system automatically calculates for its users. Their purpose is to optimize spending on user licenses, cloud environments, and services as well as their utilization across an entire organization.

The Security advice category aims at detecting vulnerabilities related to misconfigured permissions, unrestricted access, or other security holes that may result in exposing sensitive data or data loss.

The Planning advice category presents recommendations on driving corrective actions to resolve such issues as expiring reserved instances, overlapping applications, unused seats, failed, and debt payments.
