- Amazon ECS
Container image
Containers are lightweight, portable execution environments that wrap server application software in a filesystem that includes everything it needs to run. Container applications run on supported container runtimes and orchestration services, such as Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) or Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). Both eliminate the need for you to install and operate your own container orchestration software by managing and scheduling containers on a scalable cluster of virtual machines.

Centralized cost monitoring has reduced cloud spend and supports proactive budget control
Reviewed on Dec 04, 2025
Review from a verified AWS customer
What is our primary use case?
I have used Kion for one project with a duration of approximately one year. The customer wanted to monitor infrastructure spending and try to reduce costs. We centralized the infrastructure bills inside Kion so we could monitor everything in one place. We also set up alerts in case of budget overflow.
How has it helped my organization?
We reduced the time spent on monitoring the infrastructure. It helps significantly, though I don't have additional metrics to share.
What is most valuable?
In my experience, Kion is very intuitive and easy to use, allowing you to monitor everything in one place. Everything is monitored via dashboards, and you can also drill down on resources to gain more insights. Kion allows us to reduce infrastructure costs. We saw a spending reduction of 20%.
What needs improvement?
I think nine is a very good score. Ten, from my perspective, is perfection, and I believe Kion can be improved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have worked in my field since 2017, so seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Kion has demonstrated no stability issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Kion is very scalable and easy to scale depending on the needs.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is very competent, always.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
This is the first tool we used for this customer.
How was the initial setup?
If you need to monitor your infrastructure cost and make it simple, intuitive, and easy to set up, choose Kion.
What was our ROI?
Kion helps in reducing costs. We saw a spending reduction of 20%.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I think the price is worth it because Kion offers a lot to the customer.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
My boss evaluated other options, but I don't remember which solutions.
What other advice do I have?
The alerts helped in identifying the most spending infrastructure pieces and raising alerts toward the business. I think Kion is a good tool, and the integration of agents will make it easier. I would not change anything about Kion as it has been a very cool experience. I would rate this review a 9.
