significant savings
What do you like best about the product?
Fully automated, allows us to benefit from long-term commitment discounts without taking on the commitment. No risk with the buy-back guarantee.
What do you dislike about the product?
on boarding process takes time with root account signing to your aws account
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We want to save as much money as we can without having to devote resources. Zesty has generated savings off of our EC2 bill without changing our workloads. We only pay a percentage of the savings.
AWS Opex Optimization
What do you like best about the product?
The cost savings are outstanding, and the dashboard is simple yet, communicates the essentials. The implementation was speedy. The staff are very engaged and work to ensure you have a successful implementation.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would help to know what is part of the coverage, for instance. listing the RIs to existing workloads. But overall, I am pleased with the output.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The corporate business needs are dynamic, and using the traditional method of purchasing RIs was not efficient. In some cases, buying an RI using traditional AWS methods created some waste, as the workload became inappropriate for the business requirements. The dynamic nature of Zesty's platform removed the hassle and allowed us to focus on rightsizing the workloads, and Zesty took care of the savings for us. Within the 1st month we saw excellent results!
Cloud Cost Optimization
What do you like best about the product?
Zesty provides us with significant savings off our EC2 bill in a completely automatic fashion, basically without our team having to spend any time on it.
Onboarding was very quick and from that point on the system works on it's own.

Zesty Makes AWS Savings Easy!

Zesty was easy to set up and savings start immediately!
What do you dislike about the product?
The way Zesty manages savings plans can cause a few email alerts to be sent to billing admins frequently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don’t have to do any RI management and it frees me up to concentrate on other areas.
Awesome Savings
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity was excellent. We specialise in machine learning on datasets that vary wildly in size, and so optimising our compute resource has been on the top of our roadmap for quite some time. Zesty managed the AWS on-boarding process, were kind enough to host meetings to check everything was set up correctly, and had very simple setup documentation
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing, it's an awesome service - one i'd happily recommend to anyone using AWS
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reducing autoscaling cloud compute costs in an effective way. We've had excellent cost savings so far, that began immediately after we started working with zesty.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Honestly, it's so simple to set up and the savings are great - there's nothing to lose.

Significant cost saving with minimal upfront investment

Zesty just works.
With very minimal setup and configuration, we are getting nice results in terms of daily savings.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much to dislike.
As long as AWS allows this automation on their marketplace, I see no reason/situation for not using such a tool.

Easy to work with and makes easy work of an otherwise very time consuming process. Highly recommended.
