## Productivity Tools

### [Excel tool for Application Insights](https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-hosting)

Ready to use the Excel template to analyse Azure Application Insights metrics in Excel.

The benefits of this solution.

1. There is no need to access the Azure portal, you only need an API key.
2. All necessary and important metrics are collected in one place.
3. It is easy to observe correlations between metrics and instances.
4. There is no need to configure the portal. This solution allows me to save time and quickly diagnose the problem.
