Overview
VIDIZMO grants user an extensive monitoring mechanism for the resources being consumed in their Account by providing the ability to set Consumption Alerts. Organizations can create multiple thresholds by setting certain percentages of the allowed package limits for which the consumption is being incurred. This caters to the needs of organizations in preventing overages and additional cost peaks at the end of their Billing Period by receiving email notifications whenever a threshold set for a particular resource is exceeded.
