Everything in CloudMonitor’s menu, in the order you’ll find it. Screens are grouped by what you’re
trying to do: Inform tells you where the money went, Optimize finds ways to spend less, and
Operate is where you run the day to day.
Some screens are optional modules. If one isn’t in your menu, it isn’t switched on for your
workspace — an admin can turn it on under Settings ▸ Features.
