Great product
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using Zesty for a few months now, and I think this is a fantastic product. Our most significant expense is our EC2 servers, and zesty just magically allows us to save money on them
What do you dislike about the product?
To date, Zesty's Commitment Manager does exactly what it said it would do, and there is nothing about the product that I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allowed us to save money on our EC2 servers

Great for any company
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to save money on our ec2 billing without having to worry about commitments and planning around those monitory commitments.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that you cannot compare the previous month with the current or previous months. You only get a total usage, cost, and saving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are saving money monthly, not committing for extended periods (saving plans and reserved instances).
We can monitor s3 usage and cost.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving two issues with Zesty:
1. Better visibility into our instances and disk usage.
2. Ensuring best cost (maximize savings) with minimal effort.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Trying Zesty is almost risk-free and easy to turn off if you don't like it, so I recommend at least trying it. If you decide not to continue using Zesty, you will pay a little more for AWS for a month.
Vital service that actually reduce cloud costs
What do you like best about the product?
simple dashboard and easy implementation
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to have some cloud knowledge to understand the calculation method.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The service is working in the background and purchasing RIs for your account, thus reducing costs.
The best cost optimization solution you can find
Our costs started soaring and we needed a solution to manage costs without taking too much time from the team. Cloudivsor reduced our EC2 spend by over 40%
No effort required, fully automated, maximum savings.
It's a two-click installation, you just have to try and you will not believe how simple it is and how much money you save!
Zesty makes it very easy to reduce AWS EC2 bills
What do you like best about the product?
It's a great solution focusing on added value for customers and simplicity, making cost savings easy, taking all the nasty risks and decision making (upfront commitment, etc.) from our shoulders.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I specifically dislike about Zesty.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automatically getting most out of AWS EC2 cost reduction capabilities (SavingPlans and ReservedInstances).
Very easy onboarding, we got major savings on the first month with almost 0 work
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the best is Zesty commitment manager and the easiness of the onboarding process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I love everything up to now. Nothing bad to point out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are cutting down EC2 compute costs with no effort.

Just sign up!
No risk, easy to use, saves a ton
What do you like best about the product?
Zesty’s no-risk proposition caught my eye. They offer a buy-back guarantee and only charge a percentage of our savings. From there, I was even more impressed with its ability to automatically buy and sell RIs and SPs according to our needs. As promised, Zesty’s automation enabled us to save 45% on EC2
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing--Zesty’s a great product. A real win-win.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overprovisioning resources was a real issue for our team. It was hard to predict our needs a year in advance, so our engineers preferred to provision more than necessary to accommodate scale. Zesty’s Commitment Manager scales with you, purchasing the right amount of RIs and SPs for your real-time needs. This means no more management, no more overprovisioning, and no more cloud waste.
Fully covered, zero effort, no risk. That simple.
What do you like best about the product?
For a fair fee derived from the savings, I get my On Demand running instances fully covered with RI / Savings Plans, with a potentially higher discount rate than what I'd get by committing for a year. The best part is that there's nothing to do from my end in order to have this running, no renewals, free of risk. one more thing that I like is Zesty's team- very professional, proactive, and fast responding.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would suggest improving the dashboards, but that's relateively insignificant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zesty helps us to reduce our On-Demand cost significantly
Unique capabilities unmatched by any other means
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to get automated three years Saving Plans coverage without the commitment is huge, especially when you got an unpredictable workload spread between different regions and different instance families. It basically cuts your EC2 spendings by 40%
They also offer a 100% refund for unused commitments.
There's also a very promising Zesty Disk that can also bring unmatched capabilities. I haven't put it to the test yet, though.

What do you dislike about the product?
The product lacks good visibility into the Saving Pans management, and the information available from AWS is also lacking
