Easy to set up with my existing infrastructure, and it required only minimal code changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing plans are a bit on the higher side, and there isn’t much room for customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The automated workload optimization and rightsizing capabilities are the most effective features. The platform’s ability to analyze resource requirements in real-time and automatically adjust instances ensures that the infrastructure remains efficient without requiring constant manual intervention from the engineering team. This lead to a measurable reduction in cloud spend while maintaining cluster performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the initial returns were simple to realize on lower environments, the transition to production required more effort. We found that iterative tuning was necessary to ensure there was no application degradation or performance impact. A more seamless "plug-and-play" experience for high-traffic production workloads would be a valuable improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cast AI helps make Kubernetes cloud usage more cost‑efficient through smart automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cast AI can feel complicated to set up at first, and the pricing can ramp up quickly as you scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like CAST AI because it's intuitive, reliable, and continuously evolving. Its reliability gives me confidence that optimization and automation actions won't disrupt workloads, which is critical in production. The platform evolves quickly with new features like Container Live Migration, which really adds value. The setup process was straightforward and well-guided, with initial onboarding and cluster connection being smooth. The UI and docs made it easy. I would rate them 10 for allowing us to save costs as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While we've had a very good overall experience with CAST AI, there are few areas that could be improved. Having more fine-grained controls and clear explanations would help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to immediately apply values to a manifest is my favorite feature. Being in a on-call rotation, this prevents unnecessary alerts from triggering in the middle of the night. Cast.AI will automatically adjust the resources, which clears the alert and I'm not woken up at night. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Cast.AI automatically tells you how much you could to save BEFORE you turn it on. It doesn't track how much you've saved AFTER as you turn it on app by app. That would be a nice feature to have since the data is already there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy installation and quick setup. I noticed a significant reduction in overprovisioning and cloud costs. Resource utilization is better, with fewer workloads lacking resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning module does not yet allow for the definition of business days. Consequently, weekend activity can disproportionately influence resource calculations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find CAST AI easy to use and the dashboard is great as it provides a centralized view in one place. When we onboard a cluster, we can see cost trends, the node list, and spot on-demand options at a glance. I also appreciate that the CAST AI team is very supportive. They are ready to add custom features for specific needs like GPU and TPU support. Overall, I think it's a great team and a great product, and I'm very happy with it.

Some features, like GCP sole tenant, are very basic and not customizable. They could improve on their Terraform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use CAST AI for cost and resource monitoring, and it provides a great experience in reducing my costs significantly. I like that it tells about resource efficiency, making resources more efficient without wasting money. Even a non-tech person can use it easily, and it suggests the right resources for services or workload. It's pretty much easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an improvement, currently it has a lag of 1 hour which needs to come down to live as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is mostly hands free and with little more work you can achieve tailored results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a dislike but room to improvement, I would like to have some more dimensions in cost charts and also better visibility on k8s events related to cast Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
