Great service: reliable and easy to use

  • March 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The service is:
- Easy to use: They have a lot of updated step by step guides to help you setup the service
- Reliable: I always had my server up and down at the right time, I use the service since 1 year, I just performed the initial setup and then I forgot about it and it always worked well
- Has a good free plan that you can try on some server instances inside a single project
What do you dislike about the product?
- Support: Some months ago I didn't find a way to reboot a server instance once a day at a specified time (with no downtime except for the reboot time), I wrote to the support but no one answered.
Maybe in the meantime they implemented it (or maybe it was already there and I didn't find it)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I need to have a server up for 3 hours a day starting always at the same time in a defined time zone.
By using the Park My Cloud I spend only 1/8th of the server monthly cost and I don't have to create and maintain a dedicated infrastructure to perform the job
I was tempted to implement a custom solution to perform the scheduling job but I am happy that I chose Park My Cloud since I can rely on them and I don't have to handle any future issue like API changes by my server provider or similar issues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free tier since the service is really easy to setup

Comprehensive scheduling tools for our AWS environments

  • March 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
PMC has allowed us to visually schedule our AWS resources and power them off during non-core business hours. We have found this to be superior to a stack of python scripts utilised previously to achieve the same time. It has allowed us to be able to modify schedules quickly based on the business need should instances be required to be powered on overnight.
Integration with Slack allows us to see changes to schedules and when instances are powered on and if colleagues has modified a schedule.
What do you dislike about the product?
Quirk in the creation of Logical groups set a number of instances that were added to be powered off during the business day. It didn't cause an outage, but made us very aware of the power of this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy powering on and off of AWS instances based on schedules that we have defined.
Ease of use if there is a requirement to change a schedule at short notice. Summary of cost savings when modifying a schedule is a nice touch.

Park my cloud rocks! So easy to use

  • March 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Park my cloud was easy to use, great way to get an idea of my IT infrastructure and ongoing costs associated. We can also set up dynamic schedules which can contribute to understanding our costs and finding cost reduction solutions
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far, i think maybe the UI could be a bit more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're trying to get an understanding of our IT infrastructure costs as well as pinpoint potential areas of savings. Park my cloud also allows us to shut off servers during non business hours reducing our costs further

ParkMyCloud -Cost Savior

  • March 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility to park your instance and have them back online without any interaction with the tool or the cloud console. Saves time and money. With one click we can have hold of all the resources in pool and have them managed with schedules. We are a big organization and we have multiple ParkMyCloud account for different projects and different teams. And every one is taking good benefit out of this tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are few things to dislike, but would love to have flexibility if we can attache two schedules for same resource with different time frame.

One of the issue i would like to point out is related to patching and troubleshooting of resource. Mostly when there is scheduled maintenance from the cloud vendor PMC doesnt recognize it and then we have to intervene and have the servers out of the PMC schedule to get them updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly we use it to avoid/reduce manual interaction of user to start and stop the servers when not in use. Specially in development ENVs. This help's us to save cost and also shut down the servers when not in use.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
keep up the good work.
