I use North Cloud to optimize AWS costs and to receive alerts when costs become too high, and also to integrate it with FinOps, which helps me catch costs across the clouds I use. For example, we had been getting overcharged for instances and EC2s that we do not use, which made our costs too high. North Cloud has been able to filter our usage patterns and then optimize to tell us exactly what is causing higher costs. Essentially, this is the challenge that North Cloud has been able to solve recently. I also use North Cloud to receive alerts. For example, there are days when we experience a high peak, and North Cloud provides us an alert about the spike. This allows us to be very prepared for the incoming budget so that we do not get overcharged unexpectedly.
