ParkMyCloud has saved me 10+ hours a week in VM management time
What do you like best about the product?
ParkMyCloud makes it very easy to automate VM schedules and has allowed our company to delegate access to the developers to extend their VM up-time without needing to reach out to an IT staff member. Once our policies were set up, all new VMs automatically apply to a schedule and a team. This makes the management of the VMs cost less and doesn't require follow up for each VM created.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point, we haven't experienced something major that we dislike. It is difficult for users to understand the idea of Overriding a schedule, but once it is understood, there are very few questions or issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Management of VM schedules was cumbersome and too complicated in Azure. Through the use of ParkMyCloud, we have saved thousands of dollars because PMC makes it very easy to visualize and report on whether a VM is tied to a schedule and if it is on or off.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a necessary product if you are managing 5+ Azure VMs

Great tool for real savings in the cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Great straight-forward tool that results to actual savings in the Cloud infrastructure. Policies are great tool to manage parking schedule for resources. The Slack integration is helpful. Pricing model is very good, and can be used by many different people. Good to know that a Savings tool won't break the bank. Love the fact that my personal test accounts can go free, so I don't mind recommending PMC to companies knowing almost everything about the tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
No MSP Console to manage multiple customer with a single login.
Out of the box integration with tools like SignalFX and Pagerduty would be very helpful.
Slack bots to quickly override schedules would be helpful

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For many companies using cloud, savings are at the top of their agenda when they decided to move to the cloud. Most migrations are still lift-and-shift, having many EC2 instances. PMC has helped many environments that I manage realize a boost in savings. PMC also helps to improve the security posture of the company by keeping idle resources stopped when they're not in use, reducing the attack surface, especially during times when the infrastructure is most vulnerable, and taking action on possible breach would be difficult to impossible.
Excellent service, does just as advertised with many features to save on costs!
What do you like best about the product?
User-friendly UI that allows for quick searching and grouping of resources with sortability by price, region and teams! The SSO integration is seamless and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integration with Azure VMSS' are a little bit wonky at first and may fail. The scheduler seems to have no Crash loop Backoff logic to stop pinging when a VMSS fails to scale down. I wish it was easier to bootstrap Azure cloud integration without going through twenty steps, a terraform module would be ideal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving the inability of EKS and AKS node groups / node pools to be scaled to zero for very expensive machine types (GPUS). We've realized that a cronjob has led us to literally hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read through the documentation and take the time to group resources together to save time and hassles.
Its good tool to handle the EC2 instance status
What do you like best about the product?
Automation process to start and stop the EC2 instances and providing the cost saving options
What do you dislike about the product?
Need more accurate cost saving options and other options like storage etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
stop and start the ece2 instances and chosing instance types for cost saving
Excellent Savings Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The set-it-and-forget-it model works well and is most convenient. We only needed to do a one-time setup in AWS and Azure and that was it. ParkMyCloud discovers new resources automatically and adds them to their monitoring.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there's not much to dislike on this platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are realizing significant savings by powering down VMs when not in use and on weekends. If a team member needs the VM during those times, all they have to do is power them on temporarily. I especially love the fact fact that even when the VM is powered on temporarily, it gets shut down automatically once the power-on period is reached.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend ParkMyCloud to anyone wishing to save on cloud operating costs, especially on AWS and Azure.
