"Money saver and self managed!"
4/5
What do you like best about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

What do you dislike about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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 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.

"Rich Features and Great Customer Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

What do you dislike about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

"Scaling with Simplicity"
5/5
What do you like best about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

What do you dislike about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

The UI sometimes feels a bit clunky and the short logout period is quite annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

"Start saving money"
4/5
What do you like best about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.

What do you dislike about Spot Cloud Analyzer?

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.
