Very easy to use API to get recommendations out of it
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not a dislike but more a steering recommendation: P5 could use some new features to make integration and automation more impactful.
For instance, as of today, getting recommendations via API is easy but feeding back actions performed to reconcile savings is not yet available. The automated usage use-case is a big opportunity for big companies
