What do you like best about Zesty?

The support team and onboarding team were phenomenal when we first started using Zesty, getting signed up and brought on was a breeze. Continued support has been very good and they have been very forthcoming with any information we requested. We make use of Zesty's dashboards pretty regularly as well and also make good use of the metrics they provide us directly. Getting this integrated into our AWS accounts was also a breeze. Cost savings are very good with this platform and nothing needs to be done after onboarding is complete, it's set and forget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zesty?

Their dashboards could use a bit more work, providing more granular views, maybe even breaking down resources that could be totally removed. Perhaps an expansion on the tool to provide something relevant to Kubernetes cost cutting would be nice too like some competitors have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zesty solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have an excess of EC2 instances that we don't cover with our own savings plans or reserved instances and Zesty has helped a lot to manage that excess cost and reduce it by a very good amount. It's helping us cut down on costs we'd otherwise be losing money on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zesty?

The Zesty setup was quick, and on the dashboard, we can see the savings provided as well as the resources that are over-provisioned. Zesty handles contracting the CRIs to achieve 99% instance coverage, while we manage the SRIs. With their help, we have been able to reduce our AWS Compute Cost montly bill by an additional 40% Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zesty?

Initially, the communication was not very smooth, but after we hada an online meeting, they were able to resolve all our questions, and we were assigned Spanish-speaking staff, which improved communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zesty solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows us to see the compute cost and reduce it by an additional 40% on top of the SRIs we already had contracted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The automation and peace of mind of delegating that responsibility for reservations to Zesty is fabulous, we were able to greatly optimize our reservation spending.I n less than a year we managed to reduce the monthly cost by 3000 USD on average, having recurring meetings with Zesty helps us understand the status and evolution of the reservations as well as define new workloads and start with additional reservations from day zero.

What do you like best about Zesty?

Zesty automates and manages our RI/CRI/SP commitments on AWS. What stands out the most is the ease with which we can oversee all our cloud commitments without the need to manage them in-house. Zesty’s app provides a great overview, detailing our coverage split by RI/CRI/SP, coverage levels etc. which allows us to easily track and optimise our cloud spend. Additionally, their Slack support is very responsive and gives us valuable advice that helps us make informed decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zesty?

At this point, there's nothing negative to mention about the product and service. Zesty has met all our expectations by streamlining our cloud commitments and offering outstanding support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zesty solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zesty solves our need to automate management of cloud commitments. By taking over the automation of our RIs, CRIs, and SPs management, Zesty allows our team to redirect focus to our core operations. Their platform provides clear visibility into our cloud commitments and costs/savings, which helps us prevent under/overutilisation. This not only saves us valuable time but also cuts down on costs, streamlining our approach to cloud infrastructure management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zesty?

Just like those old rotisserie chicken commercials, Zesty is about as "set it and forget it" as you can get. Onboarding was quick, and has required zero work after the initial configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zesty?

I understand the ramp up period of Zesty is required as it takes time to learn our usage, but it would be nice if we could crank up a manual dial for the aspects of our workload that we know will be fairly consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zesty solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy savings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zesty?

We used to have AWS Compute Saving Plan until now but thanks to commitment manager we were able to improve our savings. Everything is automated and Zesty is commiting EC2 RIs on our behalf, no risk from our side. This is completing our saving plans and depending of our usage the tool is buying or selling RIs on our behalf. This is a no brainer solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The console is not perfect and some features are missing but it's nice to have features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zesty?

For a very lightweight integration, and minimal upkeep, you can make significant savings on on-demand EC2 instances. It offloads the operational workload of navigating the RI marketplace.

The Customer Success agents - ours is Rommi - are very quick to adapt to your company's needs, be it scaling up/down in existing or new regions.

Put simply, even with the 25% cut, if there was a button in any AWS service that you could click to save 60+%, you would click it instantly. Zesty is effectively that click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zesty?

There is very little that I have to say here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zesty solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zesty helps us to reduce EC2 costs as we scale as a business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
