Explore Your Dashboard
You're connected. Here's what to look at first and where to go next.
Your dashboard at a glance
Once the first ingestion completes, the Dashboard becomes your home view. Eight summary tiles across the top give you an immediate read on the health of your Azure estate:
- Total resources and Untagged resources — how many resources Cirrova is tracking, and how many are missing tags.
- 30-day cost — rolling spend across all connected subscriptions for the last 30 days.
- Month-end forecast — projected spend for the current calendar month.
- Active anomalies — unresolved spend anomalies detected by Cirrova.
- Budgets exceeded — budgets currently over their threshold.
- High-priority insights — rightsizing and idle-resource findings flagged as high severity.
- Potential 30-day savings — the total monthly saving identified across all active insights.
Every tile is click-through — each one opens the relevant page with filters pre-applied so you land exactly where you'd have navigated manually.
You can favourite individual subscriptions, resource groups, and resources. Use the Favourites shortcut in the left navigation to jump straight to them.
From the left-hand navigation you can go deeper with Cost Explorer, Resources, Anomalies, Budgets, Insights, Events, and Reports. Everything is clickable — chart bars, donut segments, and table rows all drill through to the relevant page with filters pre-applied.
What to do next
A few things worth setting up now that you're connected:
- Set a budget — create a monthly spend cap with threshold alerting so you're notified before you overspend. Go to Budgets → New budget.
- Invite your team — go to Organisation Settings → Users → Add User to invite team members. Once they've signed in, you can manage their access roles from the same page.
- Review Insights — the Insights panel surfaces rightsizing recommendations and idle resource alerts based on your usage data. Many of these are actionable on day one.
- Schedule a report — configure a weekly cost summary to be emailed to your team or finance stakeholders.
