Comparison
Cerberus Cloud vs Turbo360
Turbo360 and Cerberus Cloud both sell to MSPs, but they are built for different jobs and priced in opposite ways. Here is why MSPs that sell Azure cost optimisation as a service choose Cerberus Cloud.
Short answer
Choose Cerberus Cloud if Azure cost optimisation is a service you sell. Your engineers work every client from one ranked backlog, you can bundle commitments across clients, every figure matches your CSP invoice, and you pay a fixed fee per client instead of a percentage of your clients’ spend. Turbo360 is a broader Azure platform that adds monitoring and documentation to cost management, and prices its MSP plan as a share of the spend you manage.
Why MSPs choose Cerberus Cloud over Turbo360
Pricing
No cut of your CSP margin
Turbo360 prices its MSP and CSP plan as a percentage of the Azure spend you manage. Cerberus Cloud charges a fixed monthly fee per client, set by that client’s spend band, so your software cost doesn’t grow with your clients’ bills, and partner discount tiers lower your whole bill as you grow.
Portfolio
One backlog, not one account per client
Turbo360’s partner model gives each customer an isolated account you switch into. Cerberus Cloud ranks findings across every client tenant in one view, so your engineers always know which client to work on next.
Commitments
Bundle commitments across clients
Commitment intelligence groups reservation and savings plan opportunities across your whole portfolio, so you can buy them together for a better discount instead of client by client.
Invoice matching
Figures that match your CSP invoice
Per-category adjustments, such as a discount on commitments or an uplift on licences, make every figure match the invoice you send, so clients never see one number in the tool and another on the bill.
Delivery
Ranked by effort and risk, not only saving
275+ automated finders across 15 Azure service families. Every finding is ranked by impact, effort and risk, with the evidence and remediation scripts your engineers review before anything changes.
Your clients
Your brand, never ours
Give each client an optional login that shows only your name, isolated from your other customers. View as the client to see exactly what they see before a review.

Built for the delivery loop, not the dashboard
A cost dashboard tells a client what they spend. A cost optimisation service has to decide which client to work on next, prove each change is safe, and show the saving on an invoice the client recognises. Cerberus Cloud is built around that loop, from the ranked backlog to the savings history your account teams take to every review.
It is priced to match. CSP reseller margins are thin, and a percentage-of-spend platform fee takes its cut from every client’s Azure bill and earns the platform more when your clients spend more. Cerberus Cloud charges a fixed monthly fee per client instead, so your margin stays yours. We set out the wider argument in why percentage-of-spend pricing hurts MSP FinOps.
When Turbo360 may suit you better
If you want one vendor for Azure monitoring and documentation as well as cost, or need to buy through Azure Marketplace against a Microsoft commitment, Turbo360 covers that. If your business is selling cost optimisation to clients, Cerberus Cloud is built for it, and a two-tenant pilot shows the difference on your own clients’ data.
