Align spend with ownership
Track costs against limits for customers, projects, services and teams, so stakeholders can see where they stand.
Control
Keep spending plans in view.
Set spend thresholds for a customer, project, service or team. Use alerts and forecasts to see when cloud usage needs attention and decide how to respond.
Know when to review
Configure threshold alerts to prompt a review as reported spend approaches a limit.
Easy to track
Every limit shows current spend, forecast and headroom in one glance.
Australian data residency
Cloud Ctrl is built and hosted in Australia. Usage and billing data stays in Australian-hosted infrastructure, and a customer-controlled Azure deployment remains available for stricter requirements.
Set
Give each budget an accountable view
A useful budget view reflects how your business works. Set limits around customers, projects, services or teams rather than relying only on a total cloud bill.
Define the limit and alert thresholds so the people responsible can review spend against the plan. Spend Limits monitors reported costs; it does not stop infrastructure or enforce a hard spending cap.
Track
Plan with forecasts, not just invoices
Spend Limits projects the month-end position from the current run-rate. Use the forecast to discuss likely demand and budget pressure before the next invoice, and review it as new billing data arrives.
