Savings Report

The Savings Report in CloudSpend provides an in-depth view of your cloud savings across AWS, Azure, and GCP accounts. It breaks down your cloud costs as:

• On Demand: The cost of running resources without any discount.
• Charged: The actual amount charged after applying savings mechanisms such as Reserved Instances or Savings Plans, Committed Use Discounts, and Credits.
