This is a problem across enterprise SaaS companies. At my last company (small enterprise SaaS biz <$50M ARR), I got so tired of this consuming so much of my time. I literally hacked together some code so I could point at any line item from any bill generated by our "system" and it would try to answer "why did I get billed $x for this?" so a five year old could understand.
I wish there were SaaS products that would effortlessly audit enterprise SaaS bills with support for more than just the top 1% SaaS products.
- doorstar 6y agoI was poking around with their CLI to see if I could put together a cron job - this artifact now costs more than $X so delete it. Unfortunately if there's a 'get current charges' command I haven't found it. I have a ticket open with MS support. I suppose it's to their credit that they're listening to me but it's been a few weeks with only the aforementioned hand-waving. I started just sending them screenshots showing that their own dashboard showed no usage during the times I'd gotten charged.
