"An Easy Button for saving money on AWS using spot instances"
5/5
What do you like best about Xosphere Instance Orchestrator?

The best part about Xosphere Instance Orchestrator is that it just works. Install it, tag some instances, and save money without even trying. It addresses a specific problem in a simple, non-invasive way, with close to zero operational overhead.

Aside from the technical benefits, we also like the pay-as-you-go licensing model. This allows us to increase or decrease as needed without having to worry about capacity planning. And there's no vendor lock - if AWS or another vendor comes up with a better solution, we always have the option to uninstall without any risk of operational impact, contract violation, or cost risk.

What do you dislike about Xosphere Instance Orchestrator?

There was a bug in an earlier version that was causing a large number of queries to the AWS API, which contributed to our rate limit. In some cases, it was causing throttling to occur, which resulted in various delays within Xosphere Instance Orchestrator and other internal processes that were talking to those APIs. We submitted a support ticket, and Xosphere fixed the bug in the next version, which was released a few days later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Set it and Forget it!"
5/5
What do you like best about Xosphere Instance Orchestrator?

XOSphere is incredibly helpful in quickly and consistently utilizing the spot market. Over the course of our ~1 year with XOSphere, we've had 0 problems to speak of. It's consistently saved us 80% from on-demand prices and done so without any oversight.

The additional features of XOGroups and more make it such that there's a broadening platform of offerings that will continue to serve developers well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xosphere Instance Orchestrator?

Terraform resourec version updates are sometimes backwards incompatible. Very few other providers even have TF providers, so this is very much a nit pick Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
