EtherInsights
EtherInsights is EfficientEther's platform for Microsoft 365 and Azure cost management, Windows 365 lifecycle support, tenant reporting, user lifecycle operations, security assessment, and Intune device reporting.
Why EtherInsights matters in a Microsoft estate
EtherInsights is part of the EfficientEther portfolio, so the term should point readers to the product or solution route that explains what to do next. The glossary should support discovery, not trap readers on a dead-end definition.
How EtherInsights shows up in practice
It is built as a single operating view rather than a set of separate tools, so cost, Windows 365, security, and device data are queried and presented from one connected product, rather than reassembled by hand across several dashboards. On the cost side, it identifies unused Microsoft 365 licences, oversized or idle Azure resources including virtual machines, and Cloud PC cost drift, turning those findings into a savings report with named owners so recommendations have somewhere to go rather than sitting unactioned. It also tracks Microsoft 365 and Azure billing trends over time, to surface spikes, dips, and unexplained cost drift before they reach the next invoice.
Windows 365 support runs across the full lifecycle: design, deployment, configuration, and day-to-day management of Cloud PCs, including migration baselines for moving from Azure Virtual Desktop to Windows 365. Alongside this sits per-Cloud PC insight such as endpoint analytics, startup performance, work-from-anywhere signal, CPU and RAM spike time, and alternative SKU recommendations for rightsizing. Tenant management includes scheduled configuration backup across Entra and Intune, the ability to pin a snapshot as a baseline, drift detection against that baseline, and per-policy restore rather than only a full rollback. Security capability covers Secure Score tracking, Zero Trust pillar assessment, security conformity checks, and Copilot readiness assessment across licensing, sensitivity labels, sharing settings, and data governance.
On the security conformity view specifically, EtherAssist is embedded to generate PowerShell remediation code inline for a selected finding, rather than leaving the fix as a separate manual step. User lifecycle functionality covers risky identity detection, onboarding and offboarding, and licence reclaim. Its offboarding capability genuinely executes actions against Microsoft Graph once a user reviews and confirms a run, rather than only reporting what should be done: it revokes active sessions, blocks sign-in, resets password and MFA, cancels meetings, sets a mailbox auto-reply, removes licence assignments, removes group memberships, and removes admin role assignments.
Each step is logged individually as it completes, is skipped, or fails, giving a per-user task log that can be marked as reviewed and exported as evidence. Intune reporting adds around thirty built-in reports, a per-device detail view, CVE lookup, and the tenant backup and drift detection described above, all inside the same product. EtherInsights is aimed at both direct Microsoft 365 and Azure customers and at partners and MSPs who need to produce the same cost, Cloud PC, posture, and lifecycle evidence pack consistently across every managed tenant, without rebuilding it manually per customer. It is priced publicly per active user, with a 14-day trial.
