Medical professor at University of Lamar
Resource management in neuroscience has become faster and data-driven and now supports better studies
From my experience now, Archera has a very good program and useful tools. It is great, but as I said earlier, you can show more through social networks, sites, or training to help people use these tools. Formation is more specific. How can people such as me study and learn more about your program? Initially, they are very happy with Archera, which I appreciate. But perhaps if we can use the tool with more than one group of people and have shared information, that would be very good. If you understand me, it is about training and allowing more people to use it simultaneously. I see that when they are using it in their department, this group has maybe ten or twelve people who know about it. When I saw that, I thought it was incredible, and I want more information about it. They have given me information, but I want to learn by myself.

Centralized cost governance has enabled accurate Kubernetes and SaaS spend allocation
The best features in my experience with Finout are the MegaBill, combining multiple cloud providers and SaaS tools into the consolidated dashboard. Virtual Tagging, Kubernetes cost allocation, cost anomaly detection, and custom dashboards are all valuable features. Virtual Tagging paired with the MegaBill concept completely resolved our historic tagging gaps. If a legacy resource lacks physical AWS tags, we can virtually tag it in seconds inside Finout to fix our cost attribution immediately. The governance capabilities of Finout are very solid. Virtual tagging rules allow us to enforce strict cost boundaries. From a security standpoint, it connects using secure, read-only IAM roles and digests AWS cost and usage reports, meaning it does not pose an operational risk to our live application environments.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The platform is very user-friendly, and it's helpful to have all the tools readily available without needing to send an email or do extra work."
"Archera is an all-in-one unit; all work is done in one specific way, which is very good for me."
"Using the product is a very smooth process, and they help you every step of the way, so it has been great and will not be hard for anyone to join and start using the product."
"We have achieved a twenty to thirty percent reduction in total cloud and SaaS waste by identifying orphaned resources and optimizing underlying third-party licenses, and we also saved hours of engineering time previously spent manually building cost allocation spreadsheets every month."
"We have achieved a twenty to thirty percent reduction in total cloud and SaaS waste by identifying orphan resources and optimizing underutilized third-party licenses."
"Finout paid for itself within the first quarter by exposing several forgotten high-compute database instances and misconfigured data pipelines that were draining budget needlessly."
"In terms of money saved, organizations could very easily save anywhere from ten to thirty percent of their cloud costs."
 

Cons

"Maybe there are some tiny improvements regarding the UI, the configuration aspect, or integration capabilities."
"From my experience now, Archera has a very good program and useful tools. It is great, but as I said earlier, you can show more through social networks, sites, or training to help people use these tools."
"We don't have issues. We discussed with them that we wanted to have other clouds implemented with us, and they have been very helpful, going step by step in solving that issue."
"While the visibility features are top-notch, I would like to see more actionable, automated cost optimization recommendations, and I would also love to see more advanced cost forecasting models."
"While its visibility features are top-tier, I would appreciate seeing more actionable, automated remediations and guardrails similar to tools that can actively scale down infrastructure automatically."
"The right sizing feature is okay. It could be used, but I feel its functionality isn't as strong as the cloud-native solutions, so GCP, AWS, and Azure."
"Finout's user interface is dense with data, which is great for power users, but simplifying the dashboard creation wizard for non-technical team managers would speed up adoption across the company."
