The ability to interrogate my account and render it visually is a huge help. Even if just to explain to others how things work, this kind of automatic visualization is a big time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? Not a "dislike" so much as an eager desire: the ability to output CloudFormation scripts as well as Terraform. We don't use Terraform, but would make tremendous use of CloudFormation scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? The visualizations have been great to review the components we have implemented, and to generate "marketecture" diagrams for our company management to use to explain our systems.

Excellent tool for visualization in your AWS environment and easy to understand and integrate with your cloud services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft?

IT Consultant & Systems Administrator Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/23/2020 "Super easy to use and very straightforward jammed packed with features" 5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? I enjoy the ability to build architecture diagrams while simultaneously understanding the impact of the costs for planning and budgeting purposes. The visual interface is very user friendly and easy to use. Anyone with an understanding of the AWS can dive right in without any real learning curve. When compared to using AWS Cost Calculator this thing is a cakewalk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? As far as user experience is concerned (although very minor) one helpful feature would be to link icons with other objects so that they are in an object group. Due to the fact that I do not have a paid account I am unable to connect my AWS to display live components. But understandably this is a paid feature. Though it would be nice to preview it to get a full experience before committing to a subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? We are solving both visual understanding and implementation of our AWS architecture for documentation purposes as well as cost analysis for budgeting and proposals. This helps from both a project planning perspective, implementation and budgeting, from start to finish of the application lifecycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Technical Manager Computer Software Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/22/2020 "Free tool to design and analyze AWS cost" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? Everything about it. Starting from design and able to select the compute power, storage, database, zones, etc. It is also very interesting to change the configuration on each line item, and accordingly see the price of your design. You can also change the 'Billing Option' to adjust how many servers/compute power you need in a day and in the end, you can see the final price/month for your entire data center. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? Nothing to dislike, however, this tool has a limitation where we can't enter our negotiated price and then analyze the final price. Sometimes when you are configuring multi-zone solutions these parameters are very important to come up with the correct amount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: This tool is extremely easy to use and most important it will give you a glimpse of how your solution will look and the cost associated with your solution. You can customize each and every component and make your own solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? I am using Cloudcraft to design the multi-zone cluster deployment and understand what is the cost per month for my solution. Also, I have the ability to change the configuration depending on the use. For example, traffic during the weekdays (@9:00 - 5:00 pm) is at peak and during the weekend it is extremely less. I can use this tool to understand how much compute power and other things during weekends and weekdays and in the end, I am able to save tons of money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Technical Service Delivery Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/22/2020 "Easy to Use Cloud Visualizations" 5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? I love that the synchronization allows you to see the resource in your live environment for building diagrams. WAY easier than trying to have multiple tabs open, record resources, and build a cloud map all at the same time. When you have the ability to have different related resources grouped together like instances, security groups, subnets, and vpcs managing the resources in the map is far easier. Another thing is the responsiveness of Cloudcraft. The maps look really great, but the responsiveness is far superior to what you would expect from a browser application. Never have I had any issues with responsiveness even though it is connecting to AWS accounts, syncing, and pulling data for resources into Cloudcraft. Last, I would say that using Cloudcraft actually makes creating diagrams enjoyable. It feels like it was created by people that care and understand the problems that engineers face when trying to create and provide documentation either internally or to clients. Nothing is difficult to get to, everything I need is just a few clicks away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? Honestly there is not a lot of downside I have noticed. Maybe that some time the text for the different resources like instances and load balancers overlaps, but other than that nothing comes to mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: If you plan to create diagrams for your cloud resources at least give the tool a try. It is superior to any other tool on the market that I have used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? We are able to provide very professional cloud diagrams for clients when performing projects, migrations, and providing documentation. The time it takes to do these things in Cloudcraft is far less than when using other tools. Clients are able to receive simple, but descriptive diagrams of all of their resources and environments which are easy to follow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Student Researcher Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 10/22/2020 "Excellent for creating architecture and design diagrams" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? The best thing is the 3-D diagrams. They are so good to visualize when creating one. Also it offers flexibility to use any kind of AWS resources. One of the great benefit is it also shows the project price in AWA which is awesome. No other online architecture diagram website shows this kind of flexibility and features. I would definitely consider using the premium version of cloudraft. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? It's a bit difficult to use the UI on laptop due to the trackpad. I always prefer using a physical mouse. Also if they can provide some kind of suggestions based on the resources I am using in my architecture diagram, that would be a great feature to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: I would definitely recommend to go with this product, it embeds great with AWS resources and has always updated it's diagrams with latest AWS resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? I am creating design diagrams for my projects that we are using in our courses.

Cybersecurity Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 10/22/2020 "A great tool for cloud architectures" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? This platform is really intuitive, works great to explain the AWS architecture to members of the team and have a great idea of the architecture for any organization, with the integration to check budget and components directly form AWS save lots of time to manage and to show a dashboard for reports and becomes really helpfull to focus on the main components and services you need to show off to managers and IT staff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? It would become more helpfull if there is another integrations for hybrid and multicloud enviroments, like Azure and GCP, with the same level of information, the actual graph are usefull, but a feature for check connections and security groups faster would be great too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: This a great tool for those who look up to have one view of their AWS architecture and billing, in an intuitive manner, it helps you to track the conecctions and interactions between cloud components Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DevOps Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/22/2020 "Incredible easy to visualize your AWS cloud infrastructure" 5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? The 3D view and integration with AWS (with sync feature) makes it super easy to visualize and to maintain in real time your cloud infrastructure. As a Cloud Architect tried a lot of tools but none of them had the impact Cloudcraft diagrams produced on clients as they remain amazed on how much they can see about how their actual or proposed infrastructure is. Even to teach about AWS cloud infrastructure and services it makes it a great all around tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? The pricing, while you keep it for a single user is the best tool around, but you scale to $ 49 per user even if you want to add a small team to the editing of the diagrams. Some AWS resources are still not available as a component and you can only add them as an icon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: You should really take advantage of the live monitoring and budgeting features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? Design of infrastructure and application data flows for different projects on AWS. The major benefit so far is that it makes really easy people that is not fully into AWS cloud to understand the infrastructure design proposals. Also was a great tool to present some colleagues infrastructure ideas at early stages of design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coordenador Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 10/22/2020 "Your Cloud, Visualized" 5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? Awesome tool to create Cloud Diagrams and Visualizations, even importing from your own AWS Infrastructure from CloudCraft Live Feature. The budget feature is another godsent feature, as It allows me to create a solution diagram and know how it will go down in pricing without having to resort to AWS Price Calculator or price per product page, as it is built in. Beautifully crafted diagrams that I export to my presentations when pitching a new solution. Everybody is amazed and ask me if it's Visio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? Right now, we are migrating much of our workload to another cloud provider (Microsoft Azure), because of billing issues. In that respect, Cloudcraft is mostly AWS-centric. But I'm hoping that developers of this awesome tool will hear us and provide the same unique features and seamless experience for other providers, such as Azure, GCP and IBM Cloud at least. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: If you're a heavy AWS user in a need for creating visualizations of your solutions, go for CloudCraft. Is that simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? For creating ground up infrastructure solutions, presentations and even budgeting purposes with the pricing feature. The live feature is also very cool, but it's one I've used the least as of today.

Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/22/2020 "The best cloud diagram tool for aws" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Cloudcraft? Diagrams made with the cloudcraft tool are so good looking. The parallax feature makes it very intuitive. The different nodes allow you to make any type of infrastructure with it. The cost calculator is WISIWYG, great user interface and you will never lose your diagrams since it is all online. Been using it for 3 years. The auto generator looked like magic for me, being able to import an existing aws infrastructure is awesome. Só far I didn't had any issues with performance or downtime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cloudcraft? It's very pricy for small startups. But the free plan doesn't make the experience bad. A mobile app only for viewing would be nice. Multiple users editor and view only link sharing would be good too. There isn't a trivial way of having the diagrams offline and edit it in offline as I know. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Cloudcraft: Try it, see where you can save costs. It is easy and fast to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cloudcraft solving and how is that benefiting you? I managed to low the aws billing of my client by 80%. The company didn't had a updated cloud diagram. Which made the management very bad. With cloud craft I was able to havee a macro and micro view of our infrastructure Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
