"Easy-to-use cross cloud for an analyst to deep dive to the costs details and trend"
4/5
What do you like best about Finout?

-The Virtual tagging feature that allows cost allocation on resources that are related to the same proejct over different clouds.

-Data access limitation per user that allows the admin to control which users in the org gets to see what data. Allows more flexability with giving access to different users from different teams.

-Support and success team are very responsive

- Suite for daily use for cost analysis and alerting purposes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

Optimization opportunities are mainly relevant for AWS and they way those are presented is not convinient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy-to-use cost analyser for medium and large cloud setups"
4/5
What do you like best about Finout?

Finout makes it easy to filter, group, and visualise cost data from all your cloud platforms. With virtual tagging, tag management burden becomes lighter as tags can be created from existing cost queries instead of having to meticulously add the tags to cloud resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

There are a few features missing that I'd really want to have: More visualisation options for comparing costs of a selected time period to a previous period of the same length. This would help with quickly analysing how the cost trends have changed over time (e.g. week-to-week or month-to-month). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"FinOut provides good insights to our FinOps team"
4/5
What do you like best about Finout?

We like the ease of intergration of multi-cloud cost break up feature in Finout.

Also kubernetes support is really great in FInOut.

Slicing and dicing of Finout helps us to attrbiute cost to our itnernal teams.

It helps teams to track down their cost and improve the cost optmization techniques.

The platform is quite easy to use, provides user fiendly UI.

Our frequency of use is on daily basis, to drill down into our cloud bills.

Customer support is really good via slack. We get quick response to our queries on slack channels we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

One of the downsides of Finout can be short credentials time. It logout very frequently.

We can provide more session duration to logged in users.

It can also proivde us cost optimization techniques, how to save costs etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"As a devops I am using Finout to track infrastructure cost."
5/5
What do you like best about Finout?

What is nice about Finout is the aggreagation of multiple cost centers. In our case we are using:

- AWS

- Kubernetes

- GCP

Alo being able to filter out the cost per different "group" is very helpfull via the Megabill.

Documentation is clear as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

At some point we struggled with user access. Even if there is RBAC with some predefined roles, these roles did not fit our need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use for wider/casual audience but needs a lot of maintenance + testing from Finops team"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Finout?

1. User friendly UI - The user interface, especially the Megabill landing page, is simple, inviting and pleasant for users across our company, increasing the frequency of use.

2. Ease of use - The UI simplicity combined with easy to use features (filter + groupby), and easily understandable grouped label data (especially maintained & customized Virtual Tags) make it very easy for wider audience / casual users to easily find the specific costs they are looking for.

3. As the internal Finops administrator, good working relationship with Finout customer support team and their proactive approach helps me manage the tool better.

4. Overall, saves a lot of time and effort for "quickly look up xyz costs" type regular cost questions across our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

1. BUGS - I (admin) find regular bugs in Finout. I also regularly get bugs reported by the wider audience in the company. Though Finout support team are engage and work on the bugs once reported, frequent bugs damage the confidence of wider audience in the validity of costs data showing up in Finout. Overall, better data integration and thorough testing for data validity against the GCP Billing dataset by Finout product/engineering team would really help reduce the bugs showing up when we use Finout, and will really improve the experience considerable.

2. Feature requests - Over the course of using Finout for a year, our team has suggested a lot of improvements to existing features and also new feature requests. Finout has already implemented a lot of these requests (which we like), but still a lot more improvements can be made to existing features to improve user experience.

"Cost insights made easy!"
4/5
What do you like best about Finout?

FinOut is a tool that anyone can use. It is super easy to set up and you can immediately start pulling insights out of the data. One major benefit over other solutions is pulling together multiple sources of data such as GCP, GKE, and Datadog. It helps to visualise the entire landscape of costs, rather than individual pieces. The FinOut team are really invested in their customers success and keep open channels of communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Finout?

The tool is designed to be simple to use, which can be a limitation when you want to move into more advanced usecases. It can be difficult to unify different data sources at scale (it is possible via APIs, but not easily manageable out of the box). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Yoav Golub of Finout

We're glad to hear that you find Finout easy to use and that it helps you visualize the entire landscape of costs. We appreciate your feedback about the limitations and will take it into consideration for future improvements.
