Budgets

Prevent overruns with dynamic, actionable cloud budgets

Stay on top of cloud spend with budgets that alert, adapt, and align to your business—so you can act early and forecast accurately.

Overview

DoiT Budgets helps you define, monitor, and enforce cloud spending limits in real time—without rigid structures or disconnected workflows. Budgets are fully customizable by account, project, team, or business unit, and tightly integrated into DoiT Cloud Intelligence™.

With real-time alerts, embedded widgets, and drill-down links to DoiT Cloud Analytics, you can stay on top of spend, prevent surprises, and act fast when usage shifts.

Structure-free by default

Create budgets across any combination of cloud providers, accounts, or services—no hierarchy required

Proactive enforcement

Get proactive alerts when usage approaches or exceeds thresholds

Integrated drilldowns

Jump from budget alert to root cause in Cloud Analytics with a single click

Context-aware collaboration

Pipe alerts into Slack or add budgets to dashboards your teams already use, no toggling between tools

Built for control,
with actual governance you can use

Most budgeting tools stop at merely setting limits. With DoiT Budgets, you get real-time enforcement, engineering-friendly visibility, and proactive alerts. So you can plan confidently, track accurately, and act fast when spend goes off-course.

Define budgets your way, no rigid structure

Unlike tools that force you into one budget hierarchy, Budgets adapts to your needs. Budget by account, service, project, team, or business unit—across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. No workarounds. No vendor lock-in.

Track actuals, variance, and forecast in a single view

Stop switching between tools. Budgets brings actual spend, forecasted usage, and variance together in a single, drillable view—so finance and engineering stay aligned and informed at every step

Catch overspend,
before it happens

Budgets trigger real-time alerts the moment you approach or exceed thresholds. Teams can explore the cause directly in Cloud Analytics and take action before costs spiral. No delay, no guesswork.

Connect budgets to actions and accountability

Drive ownership and accountability with zero friction. Add budget widgets to dashboards, pipe alerts to Slack or email, and connect budgets to the tools teams already use. No need to chase people down.

Embed budgets where your teams work

Budgets aren’t a separate silo. They’re integrated into DoiT’s platform—linked to Allocations, Alerts, and Cloud Analytics. This means shared context, better accuracy, and faster decision-making.

Traditional budgeting tools
weren’t built for the cloud

Budgeting in the cloud is fundamentally broken. Static spreadsheets and manual forecasts can’t keep up with dynamic workloads, shifting usage patterns, and complex multicloud environments. Teams lack a scalable way to plan, track, and control spend—especially when budget ownership is distributed.

Budgeting happens in spreadsheets, not in the cloud

Most teams still manage cloud budgets offline—in spreadsheets or BI tools—because native cloud solutions don’t offer budget control that matches business needs. This disconnect slows decision-making and limits collaboration across finance and engineering.

Budgets don’t reflect actual
usage patterns

Learn more

Static budgets are misaligned with reality. Cloud usage changes daily, yet many teams budget monthly or quarterly. Without dynamic, up-to-date visibility into actuals, variance, and forecasted spend, it’s easy to miss signs of overspend.

Teams can’t act quickly when
budgets go off-track

Learn more

Alerts often arrive too late or lack enough context. Engineers don’t know which service caused the spike, and finance lacks confidence in the numbers. Without clear accountability or real-time insight, overspend becomes a retrospective issue as opposed to a proactive one.

Budgets aren’t enforced until it’s too late

Learn more

Many cloud tools lack built-in enforcement. Even when teams define clear budgets, they’re not tied to alerts or actions. As a result, overspend is often noticed only after the bill arrives—when there’s no way to prevent it. This makes it hard to stay ahead of spend or act on early warning signs.
