Apptio Supports the Launch of Professional Services in AWS Marketplace

Cloudability Professional Services Helps Customers Build a Highly Effective Cloud Financial
Management Program

Bellevue, Wash., Dec. 3, 2020 – Apptio, Inc., the leading provider of technology business management (TBM) solutions that help organizations analyze, plan, and optimize technology spend, announced today that it is participating in the launch of Professional Services in AWS Marketplace. Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers can now find and leverage Apptio Cloudability Professional Services in AWS Marketplace, a curated digital catalog of software, data, and services that makes it easy to find, test, buy, and deploy software and data products that run on AWS.

As a participant in the launch, Apptio is one of the first independent software vendors to quote and contract services in AWS Marketplace to help customers achieve better visibility, management, and optimization of cloud resources on AWS. Cloudability Professional Services joins Apptio’s Cloudability and Hybrid Business Management solutions, which are currently available for purchase in AWS Marketplace.

As organizations migrate to the cloud, they want to use their preferred software solutions on AWS. With Cloudability Professional Services, customers benefit from strategic advice, practical guidance, and deep technical expertise to optimize cloud usage and spend through purchasing strategies and ongoing rightsizing, resulting in an immediate return on investment and savings of 5 to 15 percent. Until now, AWS customers had to find and contract professional services outside of AWS Marketplace and could not identify software and associated services in a single procurement experience. With Cloudability Professional Services available in AWS Marketplace, customers have a simplified way to purchase and be billed for both software and related services in a centralized place. Customers can further streamline their purchase of software with standard contract terms to simplify and accelerate procurement cycles.

“At Apptio, our unifying vision is to help technology and finance leaders and their teams solve their toughest technology financial management challenges, which makes our support of professional services in AWS Marketplace a natural fit,” said Kevin Teets, VP of Professional Services at Apptio. “We’re thrilled that AWS Marketplace users will now have a unified system to purchase Apptio solutions like Cloudability, Hybrid Business Management and soon Cloudability Shift, as well as services like Cloudability Professional Services.”

How Cloudability Professional Services works:

• Apptio cloud financial management experts conduct an extensive series of discovery and assessment sessions across IT, finance and business owners to determine the organization’s level of cloud financial management maturity.
• Based on the maturity assessment, Apptio provides a series of tailored cloud financial management recommendations and activities to establish and operate best practices in cloud financial governance, transparency and accountability.
• Through the analysis and recommendations, organizations benefit from deeper visibility and understanding of the value that their cloud spend provides to their organization’s overall cloud strategy.

Earlier this year, Apptio announced an expanded strategic relationship with AWS, focusing on the marketing and distribution of Apptio’s Cloudability and Hybrid Business Management applications, helping customers make intelligent decision on how to migrate to AWS.
