Cloudpouch Avaliações 8

Thanks to the CloudPouch application, monitoring AWS cloud costs has become part of my daily to-do list. Regular usage has allowed me to notice recurring patterns in generated costs and pinpoint problematic configurations. Ultimately, this has resulted in a reduction of AWS costs in the project by more than 50% on a monthly scale.

I manage a bunch of AWS accounts at work and I got tired of fighting Cost Explorer every time I needed to understand where the money was going. CloudPouch is built by Pawel Zubkiewicz who is an AWS Hero, so I decided to give it a shot. That was months ago and it has become part of my daily routine.

Setup was quick, it reads your existing AWS CLI profiles and SSO config so there is nothing to configure. No agents in your account, no billing data leaving your machine. For me that was a big deal because I work with client accounts and I cannot just plug random SaaS tools into their infrastructure.

The UI is clean and the clickable charts let you drill down into usage types in a way that Cost Explorer never made easy. You can tell it was built by someone who actually does this work every day, and that makes all the difference. If you deal with AWS costs across multiple accounts, I genuinely recommend giving CloudPouch a try.

Cloud-pouch is best cost optimiser tools ever seen lots of features was there since beginning which now introduce by few cloud provider. Kudos to cloud pouch developer who save millions of dollars of cloud user.

Great app - helps me to manage my personal projects on AWS. I like simple and clear UI, ability to view multiple AWS accounts and caching of cost explorer data. That makes it easy to quickly understand what's happening.

I deal with a lot of AWS accounts between my own projects and helping people with their Terraform setups, so I stare at billing data more than I'd like to admit. CloudPouch just reads your local AWS profiles, pulls costs straight to your machine, and shows you where the money goes. No third-party service in the middle, no extra IAM roles to hand out to some vendor. I opened it, picked an account, and had a breakdown by service and region within a minute. That's how tools should work — you don't need a PhD in AWS Cost Explorer to understand your own bill.

The thing that got me to keep using it is that it fits how I already work. My AWS profiles are there, CloudPouch picks them up, done. I spotted AWS Config rules that had quietly started costing way more than usual — turned out someone enabled a bunch of managed rules across several regions and nobody noticed for weeks. Could I have caught that in Cost Explorer? Sure, eventually. But nobody opens Cost Explorer until the bill already hurts. CloudPouch makes it the kind of thing you actually check on a Tuesday morning with your coffee, not something you panic about at the end of the month.

CloudPouch is a nice application for getting an high level overview of your AWS expenses as well as diving deep into individual usage types.

It integrates will into AWS SSO, so you don't have to create yet another IAM access key. The app has charts for showing you cost over time, so you can pinpoint on when a specific spike happened, or if it's been an ongoing trend. It also features Cost Anomaly Detection, flagging the service family which has cost anomalies.

Couple of requests that I have:

* break up costs by region so I can see which regions are costing me
* Drill down into resource ids so I can investigate if there's a runaway instance or the cost is shared equally.

Cloudpouch hands down is the best way for me to navigate my AWS costs across multiple accounts in an intuitive way.

There's many solutions out there including things provided by AWS, but this was the first one I used that was straightforward from the start.

Thanks Cloudpouch team!

Very useful view of cost across multiple AWS accounts. Easy to navigate, zoom in and out, as well get priority view on cloud spending.
It saved me hundreds of dollars and probably more thanks to early detection of leaks.
