We performed a comparison between AWS Savings Plans and Cloudability based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Cost Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of AWS Savings Plans is we can discuss budgets briefly during our confirmation process since we are aware of our usual consumption patterns. Creating budgets in this regard would be beneficial, as it would allow us to consume only what we need, without including reserve instances that do not serve our purpose."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"The pricing isn't too expensive."
"It provides us visibility, then we can turn around and can give the leadership team more information, which we could not previously give them."
"Cloudability takes care of identifying and managing the cloud."
"The tool helps us to resize on AWS correctly."
"The sizing recommendation will look, and say, "You are only using this at 80%," then recommend a better fit for you."
"The most crucial feature in reducing my cloud costs has been the rightsizing recommendations, along with the dashboards that track reserved instance spending coverage and utilization. As for Cloudability's integration with our existing cloud infrastructure, it's not integrated directly into our AWS infrastructure but rather reads and pulls data from it, providing valuable insights and analysis for cost management."
"Each user can have their own dashboard that they want to consume. Instead of having to share one dashboard for multiple users, you can create individual views for each user to view, and that view will contain only their own accounts, which allows for separation of data."
"We use the product to get a detailed level of transparency on the cloud strengths."
"The visibility of AWS Savings Plans could improve."
"In the future, it would be interesting if there could be a combination of Savings Plans and some Reserved Servers."
"Right now, what we're doing is we are manually putting the data in it, which is something which we don't like about Cloudability."
"There is always room for improvement in education and training. We are not that mature in terms of our automation. It could help us identify where we could optimize in terms of build."
"We would like them to have a linear regression, so we can be predictive for budgets, allocations, and the year's follow ups. We also want to have a longer window of analytics with better certainty that our workload will fit the model, not just in a two week window."
"The dashboard needs to include more graphs per team to show what individual teams are spending in a given time period."
"I would like the API functionality to improve. The update time after uploading data could also be improved."
"Cloudability needs to improve on data collection from cloud sources."
"In general, I feel Cloudability wasn't able to support many resources."
"Cloudability needs to focus on more cloud providers."
