Cost dashboards have improved budgeting control and now need deeper predictive insights
The best feature of AWS Tweaker is the splitting of cost allocation because customizing rules to assign cloud costs to specific units, business departments, and different application systems. It offers actionable recommendations regarding right-sizing of instances and reserved planning. For right-sizing, according to the load and requirement of the customer, AWS Tweaker specifies what cost allocation will be there. Using AWS Tweaker, we can manage our cost and route the traffic in an easy way. After we know that the cost is increasing or decreasing, with AWS Tweaker's help, we manage those things.

Asset management has become streamlined and decision-making is now driven by lifecycle data
The best features IBM Maximo offers are that it is very simple to deploy on OpenShift using Ansible playbooks. It also has excellent support for integration, is simple to configure, and the asset register is very straightforward. Work management and managing inventory are seamless. In terms of integration support, I have used preventive maintenance, work generation, accurate work execution planning, tracking actuals, and I can easily integrate with other tools and systems. IBM Maximo Suite gives me a single place where service cycles are standardized and tied to compliance. IBM Maximo has positively impacted my organization as it has been a very useful tool. It reduced human error by moving away from pen and paper-based scheduling. It saved cost by minimizing unexpected downtime of assets, with approximately 50% of time being saved. We have also reduced overwork among staff by removing redundant information and smoothing task flows. It helps us scale our team without micromanaging small issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In the past three years, we were able to save approximately 30% overall costs."
"AWS Tweaker has positively impacted my organization by saving money due to its cost prediction feature, which allows us to predict costs and directly allocate budgets for adding any instances in AWS, thus helping us reduce expenses."
"Overall, I consider AWS Tweaker a practical and valuable solution for organizations looking to improve AWS cost governance, operational visibility, and resource optimization without introducing excessive complexity, providing centralized insights into cloud utilization and helping teams become more proactive in managing cloud efficiency, while there remains room for growth in areas like advanced analytics, automation depth, and broader enterprise integration."
"AWS Tweaker impacts us in many ways because we saved a lot of cost in our AWS services."
"For anyone looking into AWS Tweaker, I would say that it is an excellent choice for those ready to transition from basic cloud bill paying to active financial ops management."
"AWS Tweaker will literally show you that you have this number of unused IPs or your EC2 instances are on low utilization, so we can downgrade their compute and can save money."
"The most valuable features of IBM Maximo are the overall power and interface, and there are a lot of different modules that we use that are helpful, and additionally, it's an integrated solution and it has a lot of capabilities."
"Has a powerful audit combination that helps achieve high accuracy."
"IBM Maximo has positively impacted my organization because it reduced a lot of time and has saved a lot of cost."
"IBM Maximo has increased our efficiency by 65%."
"Our measurable results show that unplanned downtime decreased by a minimum of 15 to 20%, work order processing time decreased by 30%, data consistency across sites significantly improved, and preventive maintenance compliance increased by 20 to 25%."
"There are not many enterprise asset management systems on the market and not many that have the categories that IBM Maximo has."
"The most valuable feature is asset management maintenance as well as asset management overall."
"IBM Maximo is a very strong and powerful tool in the market…Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"AWS Tweaker is still evolving and has a smaller market presence compared to the major FinOps platforms."
"AWS Tweaker could benefit from deeper predictive optimization and customization, as the gap exists for complex scenarios."
"One area where AWS Tweaker could improve is in expanding its advanced analytics and predictive optimization capabilities, especially for organizations managing highly complex multi-cloud or large-scale enterprise environments, while the platform could also benefit from additional customization options in dashboards and reporting to provide teams with more flexibility in visualizing operational and financial data, and another improvement area could be deeper automation and remediation workflows where automation recommendations can be transformed into controlled automated actions with stronger governance and approval mechanisms, and I think continued UI refinement and broader integration support with other enterprise tools would enhance the overall user experience and operational efficiency."
"I suggest deeper support for managed services because many optimization tools focus heavily on EC2 and ignore services like RDS, ElastiCache, or MQ."
"I have not seen a return on investment, nor can I share relevant metrics such as money or time saved or fewer employees needed."
"I would rate the technical support of AWS Tweaker around seven out of ten because the response time sometimes has delays, but it is acceptable and there is no problem with it."
"IBM Maximo covers GL but only at a surface level. It doesn't provide deep account analysis."
"Areas for improvement include: an enhanced Service Catalog on Mobile; Agent intelligence; better dashboards for KPIs."
"It could use some alignment regarding some standards and the tracking of the IT assets. Even though they have all of the information (i.e. where are the assets, who owns the asset, etc.), they were not mapping it to different cyber standards."
"Inventory management, especially: item cards – I need to be able to track item balance and history back to a given date; inventory financial reports need a lot of enhancement; consignment stock management has an issue – raised with the vendor."
"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is easy and one is difficult, I rate the setup process a two since it is very complicated."
"You can get lost using the application"
"It was very slow due to the lagging issues. So that was kind of frustrating, considering how slow it was while functioning."
"The solution is not stable. We can have one day when it is stable and another day it is not. Sometimes it crashes or becomes very slow, and there are times we are not even able to download all the databases. Without the database, we cannot work on that application. These are the small glitches, and stability issues we are facing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"IBM has changed the licensing policy. As I understand now, they are going from a complex way of licensing to a more simple way of licensing."
"​Explore internal processes in order to evaluate the correct number of users in each Maximo module, then evaluate the different offers of pricing and licensing.​"
"The concurrent user license is much more effective in management and cost-wise, as it is more suitable for maintenance management."
"I do not know about the price of the solution. However, this has been an expensive project overall."
"You pay for what you get. There are lots of options depending on how you would like to implement Maximo."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the pricing a nine. The price is very high."
"The price of IBM Maximo could reduce, it is expensive."
"Where available, concurrent licenses can be more cost efficient and provide more flexibility."
