Disklike that PMC sometime overrides changes I make in the AWS control panel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used PMC to streamline our cloud environment, and automate the starting and shutdown of several cloud servers that do not need to be running 24/7
Great service: reliable and easy to use
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

- 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)
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

Try the free tier since the service is really easy to setup
Comprehensive scheduling tools for our AWS environments
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.
