Unified cloud governance has transformed audits and now improves real-time cost control
The best features CloudAware offers include strong IT compliance and governance, which my team appreciates significantly due to our frequent audits. Additionally, the built-in observability has increased transparency across all management levels; everyone now accesses the same set of information promptly. We have optimized our cloud spending by approximately 40 percent in the last two years, as operating on a singular integrated platform simplifies database and asset management while reducing maintenance costs. The observability feature of CloudAware has streamlined our multi-cloud and on-premises visibility, enhancing our IT infrastructure efficiency. With around 20 to 30 people managing daily data from entry to monitoring, tasks that previously took 24 to 48 hours now occur in real-time. My senior management has access to accurate asset tracking and discovery at any moment, which has strengthened our credibility and transparency with clients. Additionally, the introduction of cloud security posture management features, including unique cloud security policies for each asset, has greatly decreased risk and improved threat response automation. We requested a centralized cloud logging reporting system that provides detailed access logs, which has been implemented and is highly valued. CloudAware has positively impacted our organization by becoming the backbone of our cloud operations. It secures our confidential data and optimizes every aspect, from policy compliance to data reporting, enabling us to manage heavy datasets effectively. Our operations have seen increased productivity, allowing us to onboard more clients and deliver multiple projects simultaneously, all while reducing cloud spending by four crores annually.

Automates savings plan management and improves cost visibility while reducing cloud infrastructure needs
I find it to be a valuable cost-savings tool. Its best features include several things: first, it is hands-off, so I can set it and forget it. I get it set up, and it manages AWS savings plans on my behalf. This frees my team up to work on more valuable work without losing out on valuable discounts. It also provides a dashboard with more detailed insights into cost and AWS cloud costs than what comes out of the box with AWS Cost Explorer. Third, the nOps Kubernetes agent automatically resizes pods based on usage, which allows us to run significantly fewer EC2 instances than we would otherwise. nOps has positively impacted my organization by saving both time and money.

Pros

"CloudAware has positively impacted our organization by becoming the backbone of our cloud operations, securing our confidential data and optimizing every aspect from policy compliance to data reporting, enabling us to manage heavy datasets effectively while increasing productivity, onboarding more clients, delivering multiple projects simultaneously, and reducing cloud spending by four crores annually."
"CloudAware serves as a centralized platform where we can monitor AWS, GCP, and Azure, allowing us to monitor all cloud environments in one place."
"CloudAware is helping us scale up our cloud integration activities by automating tasks that were once manually intensive and providing accurate and transparent service cataloging."
"CloudAware has positively impacted us by reducing costs by 10 to 15% and improving compliance reporting speed, saving several hours per audit."
"From the past three to four years, we have not found any cases of attacks because all risks and potential attacks are being proactively communicated by the software to our tech team, allowing us to take proactive and reactive measures to avoid such attacks."
"CloudAware is one of the most structured, enterprise-grade cloud management software available today, and I strongly suggest my peers to look into its multi-cloud governance and CMDB management system before adopting it."
"I utilized it in one of the use cases for workload assessment and definitely it has brought in the value as a return of investment to us, because that was the assessment I was doing for one of our end customers."
"One customer saved 35 percent on their cloud bill, which is pretty significant."
"nOps smoothly integrated with our AWS infrastructure and achieved significant savings without much intervention from our internal team."
"I find it to be a valuable cost-savings tool; its best features include several things: first, it is hands-off, so I can set it and forget it, and it manages AWS savings plans on my behalf, freeing my team up to work on more valuable work without losing out on valuable discounts."
"Since making this shift, we have seen a twenty to thirty percent reduction in the total AWS compute expenditure, which represents a significant win for us."
"The solution provides actionable reporting and cost-saving recommendations."
 

Cons

"CloudAware can be improved by offering more free options or reducing pricing, as startups may find the cost high."
"We need enhanced security intelligence and a simplified user experience, as we face integration or navigation issues when managing all cloud servers."
"One improvement could be making the initial setup process more intuitive, especially for new users; otherwise, it has been a solid product."
"I am looking forward for a positive contribution because as per the research I did so far, it is going to benefit us if we start utilizing it, but I am a little concerned of whether it will fit in all our requirements."
"I choose 8 out of 10 because while the functionalities and features are excellent, there are areas that need improvement in terms of capacity building, training, and developing new features."
"CloudAware has existed for ten to fifteen years, but it seems they have not come up with any solution for small organizations."
"The CloudAware interface is generally easy to use; however, it can sometimes feel overwhelming for new users, including interns, who struggle with navigation."
"From the features, I would like to see RDS RIs and maybe better visibility on how the engine is deciding whether to use spot or on demand, to replace the instance or not"
"However, it misses a perfect score because multi-cloud feature parity is still catching up to its gold-standard AWS toolset."
"I suggest improving the heat map capability with the option to use showback values as the x and y-axis."
"The customer support is lacking but still pretty good."
