This article helps you get started with how to plan to manage your Azure costs. When you sign up for Azure, there are several things you can do to get a better idea of your spending:
Get estimated costs before adding services using pricing calculator, Azure price sheet or while adding services in the Azure portal.
Use one of the following tools to estimate the cost of using an Azure service:
Azure pricing calculator
Azure price sheet
Azure portal
The images in the following sections show example pricing in US Dollars. The mentioned prices are for example purposes only. They are not intended to imply actual costs.
Estimate cost online using the pricing calculator
Check out the pricing calculator to get an estimated monthly cost of the service that you want to add. You can change the currency to get the estimate in your local currency.
You can view estimated cost for any first party Azure service. For example, in the screenshot below, an A1 Windows Virtual Machine (VM) is estimated to cost $66.96 per month in compute hours if you leave it running the whole time:
The mentioned prices are for example purposes only. They are not intended to imply actual costs.
For more information about pricing, see the Pricing FAQ. If you want to talk to an Azure salesperson, call the phone number shown at the top of the FAQ page.
Review prices
If you have access to Azure through an Enterprise Agreement (EA) or a Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA), you can view and download the price sheet for your Azure account. The price sheet is an excel file that contains prices for all Azure services. For more information, see View and download your Azure pricing.
For other subscription types, you can get standard retail prices with the Azure Retail Prices API.
Review estimated costs in the Azure portal
You can view the estimated cost per month while adding a service in the Azure portal. For example, when you choose the size of your Windows VM, you see the estimated monthly cost for the compute hours:
The mentioned prices are for example purposes only. They are not intended to imply actual costs.
Monitor costs when using Azure services
You can monitor costs with the following tools:
Budget and cost alerts
Cost analysis
Track costs with budgets and cost alerts
Create budgets to manage costs and create alerts that automatically notify you are your stakeholders of spending anomalies and overspending.
Explore and analyze costs with cost analysis
After you have your Azure services running, regularly check costs to track your Azure spending. You can use cost analysis to understand where costs originated for your Azure usage.
Select Cost analysis from the left side of the screen to see the current cost broken down by various pivots such as service, location, and subscription. After you add a service or make a purchase, wait 24 hours for the data to display. By default, cost analysis shows the cost for the scope that you are in. For example, in the screenshot below, cost for Contoso billing account is displayed. Use the Scope pill to switch to a different scope in cost analysis. For more information about scopes, see Understand and work with scopes
You can filter by various properties such as tags, resource type, and time span. Select Add filter to add the filter for a property and select the values to filter. Select Export to export the view to a comma-separated values (.csv) file.
Additionally, you can select the labels of the chart to see the daily spend history for that label. For example, in the screenshot below, selecting a virtual machine displays the daily cost of running your VMs.
Auto shutdown isn't the same as when you shut down within the VM with power options. Auto shutdown stops and deallocates your VMs to stop additional usage charges. For more information, see pricing FAQ for Linux VMs and Windows VMs about VM states.
For more cost-cutting features for your development and test environments, check out Azure DevTest Labs.
Turn on and review Azure Advisor recommendations
Azure Advisor helps you reduce costs by identifying resources with low usage. Search for Advisor in the Azure portal:
Select Cost from the left-hand side. You'll see actionable recommendations in the Cost tab:
The mentioned prices are for example purposes only. They are not intended to imply actual costs.
To prevent unwanted charges on a subscription, you can go to Resources menu for the subscription and select the resources that you want to delete. If you don't want to have any charges for the subscription, select all of the subscription resources and then Delete them. The subscription essentially becomes an empty container with no charges.
If you have a support plan, you might continue to get charged for it. To delete a support a plan, navigate to Cost Management + Billing and select Recurring charges. Select the support plan and turn off autorenewal.
Integrate with billing and Cost Management APIs
Use the Azure billing and Cost Management automation APIs to programmatically get billing and cost data. Use the RateCard API and the Usage API together to get your billed usage.
Additional resources and special cases
CSP and Sponsorship customers
Talk to your account manager or Azure partner to get started.
Enterprise Agreement cost views in the Azure portal
Enterprise cost views are currently in Public Preview. Items to note:
Subscription costs are based on usage and don't include prepaid amounts, overages, included quantities, adjustments, and taxes. Actual charges are computed at the Enrollment level.
If you aren't seeing costs, it might be for one of the following reasons:
You don't have permissions at the subscription level. To see enterprise cost views, you must be a Billing Reader, Reader, Contributor, or Owner at the subscription level.
You're an Account Owner and your Enrollment Administrator has disabled the "AO view charges" setting. Contact your Enrollment Administrator to get access to costs.
You're a Department Administrator and your Enrollment Administrator has disabled the DA view charges setting. Contact your Enrollment Administrator to get access.
You bought Azure through a channel partner, and the partner didn't release pricing information.
Direct EA customers can update cost-related settings in the Azure portal. Navigate to the Policies menu to change settings.
Spending limit, and invoice guidance don't apply to EA Subscriptions.
Check your subscription and access
To view costs, you need account or subscription level access to cost or billing information. The access varies by type of billing account. To learn more about billing accounts and check the type of your billing account, see View billing accounts in Azure portal.
Request a Service Level Agreement credit for a service incident
The Service Level Agreement (SLA) describes Microsoft's commitments for uptime and connectivity. A service incident is reported when Azure services experience an issue that impacts uptime or connectivity, often referred to as an outage. If we do not achieve and maintain the Service Levels for each service as described in the SLA, then you might be eligible for a credit towards a portion of your monthly service fees.
To request a credit:
Sign in to the Azure portal. If you have multiple accounts, make sure that you use the one that was affected by Azure downtime. Then, create a new support request.
Under Issue type, select Billing and then under Problem type, select Refund Request.
Add details to specify that you're asking for an SLA credit, mention the date/time/time-zone as well as the impacted services (VMs, Web Sites, etc.)
Finally, verify your contact details and select Create to submit your request.
For some services, there are prerequisites for the SLA to apply. For example, virtual machines must have two or more instances deployed in the same Availability Set.
Learn how to view your billing accounts in the Azure portal. See scope information for Enterprise, Microsoft Customer, and Microsoft Partner Agreements.
Microsoft Cost Management helps you analyze, monitor, and optimize your Microsoft Cloud costs; understand and pay your bill; and manage your billing account and subscriptions.
