# Benefits

## Overview

Azure Documenter helps teams turn scattered Azure subscription data into structured, shareable documentation; without manually compiling resource lists, cost reports, or compliance summaries.

### Business value

- Produce audit-ready reports on resources, cost, and compliance without manual compilation
- Surface rightsizing and reservation recommendations to support ongoing cost optimization
- Report on security compliance posture across subscriptions from a single place
- Visualize business architecture across subscriptions without switching to the Azure portal
- Reduce time spent building recurring status reports for stakeholders

## How it works

Azure Documenter delivers these benefits through its two core areas, Documentation and Diagrams, plus flexible publishing options.

### 1. Consolidated reporting

Instead of pulling data from multiple Azure blades, Azure Documenter generates a single document covering resources, billing, security compliance, access, and optimization recommendations, using the document type that matches the audience (for example, **Executive summary** for leadership, **Billing details** for finance).

### 2. Cost optimization guidance

**Rightsizing recommendations** and **Reservation recommendations** document types surface opportunities to reduce spend, including potential savings of up to 60% through Azure Reserved Instances, without requiring a separate cost analysis exercise.

### 3. Compliance reporting

The **Security compliance** document type generates a report on policy evaluation results and security recommendations across your subscriptions, giving compliance and governance teams documented evidence of adherence without manual data gathering.

### 4. Architecture visibility

The **Diagrams** area lets you map resources across one or more subscriptions to a business orchestration, making it easier to explain why resources exist and how they relate. This is useful for onboarding, audits, or incident response.

### 5. Flexible distribution

Documents can be published as PDF, Word, or Excel files, stored in a built-in storage account or your own, or published online through a **Document360** project, removing the need to manually distribute files over email or shared drives.
