Pros
"The initial setup wasn't complex at all.""The tool's cost management feature provides a comprehensive view of AWS costs, allowing us to plan and make cost-effective decisions. With AWS Cost Explorer, we can perform cost planning, generate recommendations, and provide clients with suggestions for resizing. This feature includes data filtering and protection, offering users insights into spending patterns through AWS spending patterns and planning tools. The product is easy to learn.""The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complex at all.""I like the recommendation we get from AWS Cost Management to use a particular image or VM type.""The budgeting tool of AWS Cost Management is the most valuable feature.""With the cost management tool, clients can optimize fine tuning their consumption.""All of the reporting features are very good, as they allow us to track monthly expenses and send relevant emails.""The stability and scalability are good."

"It's one of the leading players for cloud optimization. It's hard to find anything better.""The best feature I like about CloudCheckr CMx High Security is its simplicity. I love that it's not rocket science to use the solution. Even if you're not familiar with the cloud, you can easily figure out how to use CloudCheckr CMx High Security. You can use AWS, you can use Azure, and you can use GCP with the solution because the integration is quite simple. You can also use multi-cloud with it, and you could see the billing part. You'll have complete visibility into your cost which I love about the solution. I also love that data on any security issues and vulnerabilities are available on the go with CloudCheckr CMx High Security. You don't need to do anything different. Just run the scan and you'll have all these open findings in the tool, in terms of the priority level, so if it's critical, it will tell you, "It's critical," and you need to fix it right away.""The solution is scalable for our purposes.""The initial setup is straightforward.""The recommendation section is pretty helpful.""It will automatically suggest areas for optimization.""The most valuable feature of CloudCheckr CMx High Security is granular reporting. Additionally, the user interface is easy to use.""The solution is mostly stable."

Cons
"I would like to see AWS Cost Management be more precise in their calculations.""The solution needs to have its own dashboard for seeing details on it. It should be customizable as well so I have the ability to pull up the information I need to see and have it in one place for my reference. I should just be able to click and see everything I need in one step.""We need finer-grained control over the roles and policies for users, specifying their permissions as to what they can look at.""This program is not very scalable.""AWS could improve the compatibility with other products.""AWS Cost Management has fewer features compared to Azure Cost Management.""I would like to see the forecasting models improved with AWS Cost Management.""There could be an option to build custom dashboards for the platform."

"The solution must improve its user interface.""The solution needs to work better with larger capacities of data.""What needs to be improved in CloudCheckr CMx High Security is integration. All the clouds are going quite fast, for example, all the cloud providers: Microsoft, Google, etc. CloudCheckr CMx High Security is good with AWS, no doubt about it, but with Azure and Google Cloud, I find that the solution is slow in that direction. If the vendor planned for CloudCheckr CMx High Security to be automated just for AWS, then it does make sense. If not, if the vendor is also targeting good integration with Google and Microsoft, then CloudCheckr CMx High Security integration needs improvement, in particular, it has to be faster. At the moment, its integration with Azure is not as good as its integration with AWS. With GCP, integration is nowhere.""Many features still need to be implemented in this tool.""The reporting and analytic capabilities are very limited.""Self-healing could be a bit smoother and a bit cleaner, easier to access and more functional. That would help.""CloudCheckr CMx High Security is complex. There are a lot of menus, and if you do not know what you are looking for you can get lost. However, the interface is self-explanatory. It's easy to understand where to go to get what you want.""The performance of the tool really needs to be improved."
