The best thing being the fact that it saves us a lot of money at my current firm by managing our Spot Instances and takes away the headache of setting it up in AWS Console.

The dashboard is quite simple and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial configuration and setting up a Elastigroup can be quite a cumbersome process of going through multiple steps.

There is a lack of clarity as to what all the different features do in there. For eg, we only use the elastigroup feature and have never bothered to explore into other features which I am sure provide some value for an organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spotinst provided, roll my group facility, this is cool!! Provides cheaper instances with a multi-range of CPU and memory. Spotinst is easy to manage. It has multiple options to select and make the elastic group of our requirement. Integration of services with AWS and other systems is also beneficial. Integration with non-AWS infrastructure is also a good feature. Spotinst. ECS feature is appreciable. Single and multiple instances per elastic group are also a good feature.

Spotinst has a rich set of features which help us solve problems out of the box, instead of us creating the components by hand! The console also provides easy-to-read dashboards which could give us insights for our business.

Spotinst also has really good 24-hour customer support (via live chat) and is very proactive on helping us solve problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing much really! Oh, we use Spotinst with AWS EKS and it's currently not possible to launch an encrypted EBS from an unencrypted AMI via Ocean though the team did mention they added it to their roadmap so that's great. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Part of the problem with ECS is having to scale the instances along with your services. Spotinst abstract the instance scaling away from me so I only have to scale my services and they handle all my hardware scaling needs. Moreover, The fact that the instances are spot instances saves us a money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Terraform support, fast and knowledgeable response times to issues, great uptime, and great pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The documentation could be organized better, and better use-cases and illustrations of differences between products would be great. Why choose Elastigroups vs Ocean for example Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nice GUI, the amount of possible automation, API (and its documentation). Support is excellent! Always very helpful and skilled people solving you problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some dependencies are not tested enough (t3a instances in K8s-cluster). Sometimes errors occur which have to be solved in SpotInst's backend by a support engineer. This is actually one reason keeping us from using SpotInst for our PROD-environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The easy way of setting up Spotinst on existing clusters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
