Cloudex by Densify Cloud Resource Optimization

What do you like best about the product?

User-friendly, consantly improving interface. Onboarding steps are straightforward and documentation is clear. Customer support is responsive, knowledgeable and follows you in each step of the porcess, from onboarding to activating more advanced features. All the provided suggestions are decorated with useful insights which allow techincal figures to better trust the produced recommendations. Additionally, Densify integrates smoothly with major cloud providers and existing infrastructure tools, minimizing disruption and maximizing compatibility.

What do you dislike about the product?

While the user interface is intuitive, the wide range of features means there is a learning curve, and some experience is needed to take full advantage of everything Densify offers. Regularly checking the dashboard helps ensure you benefit from the latest insights and recommendations. Although exporting options could be expanded, the platform’s strengths in integration and actionable intelligence more than make up for this, resulting in a very satisfying overall experience.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Densify is helping our team to reduce cloud infrastructure costs allowing us to correctly size compute and kubernetes environments.

What do you like best about the product?

Candle Stick Charts help us to track the burst performance of the application every hour
With the help of the Helm chart, it becomes easy to install

What do you dislike about the product?

It doesn't report the cost based on the network.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since it provides Candle Stick Charts, it helps us track the burst performance of the application.
It tracks all the containers, so we can analyse the performance of the sidecar as well.
We had overprovisioned & underprovisioned resources, it helped us to maintain the right balance within the cluster.
Since we configured the AWS Cost Tracking so it helped us to select right Instance Types and rightsize them as well.

What do you like best about the product?

What I like best is how Densify transforms cloud optimization from a difficult, reactive task into a proactive and collaborative process. It gives our developers the data they need to be cost-aware. Additionally, customer support is amazing.

What do you dislike about the product?

The only thing I didn't love was the old UI, which was pretty clunky. But they've completely fixed that with the new Kubex interface—it's awesome now.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Densify’s Kubex update helps us uncover hidden Kubernetes costs and eliminates the guesswork from resource management. It gives developers the data they need to be cost-aware, turning optimization into a collaborative process. As a result, we've cut our costs significantly, our applications are more stable, and our teams work better together.

What do you like best about the product?

It's easy to find the relevant information and to act upon it. Finding the right information is crucial to properly manage the, very expensive, resources.

What do you dislike about the product?

n/a. There isn't a single thing I would change.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Knowing the right size of the instance at the right time.

What do you like best about the product?

Densify has brought a level of clarity and control to our cloud resource optimization that frankly feels like a superpower. Its machine learning–driven recommendations are not only accurate but also actionable, making it easy to transition from insight to execution without the usual friction. The platform excels at contextualizing optimization decisions — especially in containerized environments — and supports a proactive FinOps culture rather than a reactive one. It’s rare to find a solution that engineers actually trust and finance teams appreciate. Densify hits that sweet spot.

What do you dislike about the product?

If there’s one enhancement I’d love to see, it would be the ability to save custom account filter presets. While the current filtering system allows you to select specific accounts to view associated resources — which is definitely helpful — being able to group accounts into named sets (e.g., “Team A Accounts”, “Prod Environments”) and quickly apply those groupings as reusable filters would make the platform even more efficient for users managing complex, multi-account environments. It’s a small quality-of-life improvement, but one that would save time and reduce repetitive manual filtering.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before adopting Densify, our resource optimization process was largely manual. We used Datadog to monitor utilization, but analyzing that data and identifying the right instance types required a lot of time, context-switching, and operator judgment. It worked — but it wasn’t scalable or efficient.

Densify changed that dynamic completely. It automates the analysis, highlights optimization opportunities with clarity, and delivers data-backed recommendations we can trust. The result has been a significant reduction in manual effort, more consistent decision-making, and better visibility into where and how we can optimize.

Perhaps most importantly, Densify has helped bring structure to what was previously an ad-hoc process. We can now generate reports that clearly justify optimization decisions, making it easier to communicate with stakeholders and drive alignment around resource planning — all based on objective data, not just intuition.
