Unite IT, Finance and Business Perspectives to Make Better Business Decisions
Through visual modeling and self-service analytics, Apptio IT Service Costing transforms your general ledger cost data into the true, fully-burdened costs of your services, technology towers, projects and other important dimensions of IT. By continuously embedding the latest optimization techniques (see modules below) into our software, we help you control costs, better align your expenditures to value, and invest more in innovation and agility.
Apptio IT Service Costing is the leading IT costing software because it gives you advantages that other approaches cannot:
Enterprise-class Solution
Unlike spreadsheets, Apptio combines drillable depth with a broad range of decision-relevant perspectives (e.g., infrastructure, applications, services, vendors, business units).
Trust through Visualization
Visual cost models that link back to source data (e.g., your general ledger) and show your allocation methods help foster understanding and trust.
Proven Leadership
Deployed by medium to large enterprises in every industry and on every continent, Apptio is built to scale and we have the know-how to make you successful.
Flexible Allocations
Apptio's flexible visual models help you quickly author or change allocation rules using assumptions, data relationships, consumption information and more.
Trust through Independence
Apptio is independent of your other technology investments. Our goal is to enable better decisions, not to sell infrastructure management software or other products.
Continuous Value
Unlike consulting projects, Apptio automates transparency so your data is fresh, new insights are revealed over time, and a predictable cadence promotes a culture of performance.
Complete Coverage
Unlike many point solutions, Apptio can provide transparency into 100% of your IT spending—not just cloud or virtualization—all reconciled back to your general ledger.
Built for Imperfect Data
Unlike BI products that expect near-perfect data, Apptio IT Service Costing was built from the ground up to consume and improve raw, imperfect data.
Modules
Apptio IT Service Costing offers focused modules to provide cost transparency, accelerate infrastructure and application optimization decisions, and align your investments with business allocations.
Cost Transparency
The Cost Transparency module gives you faster, more precise control of expenditures by modeling and measuring the fully burdened costs of your resources, projects and services. Empower your analysts, service owners, enterprise architects and others with rich decision-making capabilities.

Get Started Quickly
Nearly every Apptio customer, regardless of size, maturity or industry, doubted they had what it takes to properly cost their infrastructure, applications or services. Sometimes they lacked good data. Other times they didn't have the right team. Oftentimes, they were not yet service-oriented.
We were able to show each customer how we could not only overcome these obstacles but could do so quickly, giving them insights they often thought were not possible. We can do the same for you.
