EBS-Optimized EC2 Instances for our SDAN cost management with Zesty
What do you like best about the product?
In Zesty, we can configure the maximum disk size via our dashboard, and notifications will be immediately sent when the maximum disk size has been reached. It provides efficient reshuffling in which, for shrinking the filesystem, it automatically finds the ideal period to perform this filesystem optimization activity. This is done by automatically merging volumes for workload capacity management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Zesty evaluates the filesystem usage utilization through its read/write metrics and automatically shrinks the EBS disk by detaching volumes for optimizing unused capacity. Hence our storage cost is effectively reduced by Zetsy, and I have no issues using it for optimizing EBS volumes attached to our AWS EC2 instances.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Forecasting of the required storage capacity is a concern for our organization in the AWS platform, and Zesty uses predictive algorithms for the gradual expansion of storage for our SDAN EC2 instances. Zesty agents have a dedicated one-way communication channel through which it operates filesystem utilization metrics with HTTPS. For avoiding service degradation and EBS failure, it continuously monitors & ensures high availability and performance. For our production environment, we utilize Zesty's manual BTRFS feature in which an approval request is sent to our client whenever there is a requirement to merge or detach EBS volume.
As close to "free money" as I've ever gotten.
What do you like best about the product?
Zesty saves us hundreds of thousands of dollars per year, with almost zero downside. We get all the cost savings of reserved instances with none of the lock-in or upfront payment.
I recommend it to anyone who spends significant money on EC2.

What do you dislike about the product?
UI could use some love. I mostly interact with Zesty via the AWS console anyway, so this hasn't mattered very much.

Reducing AWS spend, automating management of reserved instances
Easy to use and beneficial service

Almost complete hands-off RI management platform. When utilized, can provide an average of 50% savings on EC2 costs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to pay attention when using new/uncommon instance types since the algorithm won't cover them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RI management and maximize savings for steady workloads. Not only does it help you by taking off the burden of managing RI's on your own, but it also gets better savings% by getting the most valuable RI plan without the constrain of long term commitment to a specific instance type or family.

Great product
What do you like best about the product?
We have been using Zesty for a few months now, and I think this is a fantastic product. Our most significant expense is our EC2 servers, and zesty just magically allows us to save money on them
What do you dislike about the product?
To date, Zesty's Commitment Manager does exactly what it said it would do, and there is nothing about the product that I dislike.

It allowed us to save money on our EC2 servers
Great for any company
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to save money on our ec2 billing without having to worry about commitments and planning around those monitory commitments.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that you cannot compare the previous month with the current or previous months. You only get a total usage, cost, and saving.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are saving money monthly, not committing for extended periods (saving plans and reserved instances).
We can monitor s3 usage and cost.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Trying Zesty is almost risk-free and easy to turn off if you don't like it, so I recommend at least trying it. If you decide not to continue using Zesty, you will pay a little more for AWS for a month.

What do you dislike about the product?
You have to have some cloud knowledge to understand the calculation method.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
