What do you like best about the product?
Archera helps me save a baseline amount per month without having to spend any extra time figuring out how to optimize my costs. If I tried to optimize further I could maybe save even more, but the fact that Archera allows me to save without spending time makes it a win-win.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard and UI is pretty confusing. It's pretty crowded and hard to figure out what my settings are and what I've set up previously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping me optimize cloud costs without spending much time.
