Intel® Cloud Optimizer by Kubex

What do you like best about the product?

We have been using Densify (now Kubex) for several years to obtain resource resizing recommendations and have had consistently positive experiences. The team is highly responsive to customer feedback and demonstrates a strong commitment to delivering enhancements in a timely manner. The recent rebranding to Kubex introduced a number of valuable new capabilities, including agentic AI and support for EKS and ECS recommendations, along with significant improvements to the user interface.

What do you dislike about the product?

The previous user interface was challenging to navigate and exporting certain reports was inconsistent across some browsers. However, following the recent rebranding, these issues appear to have been fully addressed, and I no longer have any negative feedback regarding the product.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We primarily use Kubex for instance resizing recommendations as well and EKS and ECS optimization recommendations. We also leverage their Catalog Map to identify alternative instance options when the recommended instance isn’t feasible.

What do you like best about the product?

Densify provides rightsizing recommendations across both Azure and GCP using consistent methodology, which makes it easier to standardize our cost optimization approach and compare efficiency across platforms. The recommendations are workload-aware, accounting for actual performance patterns rather than just average utilization, and extend beyond VM rightsizing to include container-specific recommendations for AKS clusters like pod resource requests/limits and node pool sizing. Densify analyzes extended lookback periods to capture seasonal variations and workload spikes, providing actionable insights with clear cost impact projections and risk assessments that make it easier to prioritize optimizations and build business cases.

While the user interface is intuitive, the wide range of features means there is a learning curve, and some experience is needed to take full advantage of everything Densify offers. Regularly checking the dashboard helps ensure you benefit from the latest insights and recommendations. Although exporting options could be expanded, the platform’s strengths in integration and actionable intelligence more than make up for this, resulting in a very satisfying overall experience.
