4.5
Overview
Spectro Cloud helps enterprises run Kubernetes their way, anywhere by providing scalable, policy-based management of Kubernetes, whether in public cloud, private cloud, bare metal or any combination. Enterprises can define the Kubernetes infrastructure stack they need. Spectro Cloud simplifies the provisioning, upgrade, and maintenance of user-controlled versions of base operating system, Kubernetes, and other infrastructure integrations. Managing multiple clusters through one-click operations and automated policies, Spectro Cloud provides deployment flexibility while improving ops efficiency, reducing cost, and providing centralized governance and visibility.
Pricing is done via monthly kCh of worker nodes under management: "Monthly Core Hours" means the total utilization over a calendar month of all cores in all Worker Nodes deployed or orchestrated by Spectro Cloud. All cores in Worker Nodes are metered on a per second basis. At the end of each calendar month, the total number of seconds that all cores were running in Worker Nodes are aggregated over all cores, then divided by 3,600 and rounded up to the nearest integer hour. "kCh" or "Kilocore-Hours" is 1000 Core Hours. kCh are aggregated and rounded up to the nearest integer kCh.
Contract pricing is based on lower end of kCh consumption per tier. Additional usage will occur an additional fee.

Effortless Deployment with Spectro Cloud Palette
Reviewed on Nov 17, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I find Spectro Cloud Palette exceptionally user-friendly, which greatly simplifies my development tasks and application deployments on a daily basis. The platform's integrated tools are a standout feature, making the deployment process remarkably easy and efficient. I also appreciate the interaction with AI it offers, streamlining development processes, ensuring easy access, and providing valuable support in deploying applications. Additionally, the switch to Spectro Cloud Palette was motivated by its ease of use and low cost, which made it an appealing choice. The setup process was straightforward, with the instructions being very well written, allowing for a comfortable transition from AWS.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a tighter integration with GitHub would enhance the functionality of Spectro Cloud Palette.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Spectro Cloud Palette simplifies development and deployment processes with easy access and AI interactions, helping with application deployments efficiently.

Unified Dashboard and Automated Management Make Kubernetes Easy
Reviewed on Nov 13, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The unified management dashboard has been the most helpful feature for us. It allowed us to oversee our Kubernetes clusters on both AWS and our on-premise servers without the need to switch between different tools. Additionally, the automated lifecycle management for clusters saved us a considerable amount of time when performing upgrades.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found the learning curve for the advanced features to be quite steep. Locating the exact documentation needed for integrating with our CI/CD pipeline proved difficult, and we ended up contacting the support team more than once to get everything functioning as it should.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We faced challenges with inconsistent cluster configurations in our various environments, including development, staging, and production. These inconsistencies resulted in security vulnerabilities and the classic 'it-works-on-my-machine' issues. Palette addressed these problems by allowing us to enforce standardized Cluster Profiles. The biggest advantage is that our platform team can now ensure all clusters adhere to our security policies, while developers benefit from a consistent environment.

spectro clould palette review
Reviewed on Aug 08, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Overall Spectro Cloud Palette has been a great addition to our organization. As a organization fairly new to Kubernetes Spectro Cloud staff have really gone above and beyond to understand our use cases and desired business outcomes and plan solutions not just with palette but also Kubernetes. The support staff has been very knowledgeable whenever we have had an issue. The product itself has some useful features that i have not seen in other platforms.
1. The profile system with variables is a great way to maintain consistency between our clusters. it makes things repeatable and easy for less expert users to deploy. once you create your base profile the cluster builder just needs to fill out the right variables and doesn't need to know all the details of the configuration. i like to keep a lot of my cluster level configurations in a profile so i can easily see what is configured
2. Packs are a great edition. palette has packs for most of the popular add-ons. its easier to manage then directly using helm charts and the pack default settings are usually pretty on point. we use the airgap packs which is nice that we don't need to fight with helm to make it pull everything locally.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. New spectro could versions of kubernetes and third party packs can sometimes take some time to be released. while this is understandable as they do testing it can sometimes be frustrating if you are waiting on new features in those products that have been release by the vendor but the pack hasn't been updated yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
making Kubernetes manageable by a team who was not super experienced with the technology in the beginning.
