PointFive Pros and Cons

The tool presents and estimates cloud savings opportunities on its own. It also presents technical, actionable solution suggestions that help to make savings specific. That makes it super easy to engage necessary engineering support, and prioritize against other projects. Even if you know nothing about cloud cost, the tool will help you to be more cost efficient. It keeps adding new opportunities automatically, and integrates with our JIRA. It is just so easy to use that it's adoption through the entire organization has been great!

so far nothing. All feature requests we have had (e.g. advanced dashboard functions, and activity tracing) have been implemented by the team to improve our experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using the app helped us save money on AWS with little effort.

Impelmenting the system was very simple and took little time.

The UI is very easy to operate and it is easy to filter the savings opportunities according to different parameters.

In addition, you can track tasks directly from the application to Jira, and view data about your AWS accounts.

The main thing I liked are the many changes that were introduced to the system in a short time in light of our demands and needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I'm missing is the ability to edit reports in the app and have it reflected with the downloadable CSV report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Accurate and effective recommendations to save cost

Product Team very responsive to improvements and aware of needs

Very easy to use API to get recommendations out of it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not a dislike but more a steering recommendation: P5 could use some new features to make integration and automation more impactful.

For instance, as of today, getting recommendations via API is easy but feeding back actions performed to reconcile savings is not yet available. The automated usage use-case is a big opportunity for big companies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use reporting with granular visibility into spend.

Actionable optimization recommendations.

PointFive finds cloud cost optimization opportunities better than any other product I've seen in the market. The software also reduces the friction associated with identifying, assigning, and tracking opportunities by interfacing with your task tracking system like Jira. Lastly, the remediation steps required to fix the finding are right there in the software for you to use. No need to look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest regret is that this software was not around 5 years ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
