### "It Works but it's not great (yet)"

January 17, 2017

3.0

It works and helps our company save money but for a large account we need more advanced features available ina n easier to use interface. Good start though in a few years this should be really good.

### "Standard EC2 Scheduler"

January 17, 2017

3.0

For heavy duty solutions, you're going to be better off writing your own scripts that turn off and on instances, but this definitely gets the job done if you don't have time or resources to do that. Their UI is not the most beautiful, and it's a little frustrating having to log in to another service, but no doubt it saves a lot of money if used properly

Pros

Saves a lot of money

Cons

Annoying to log in to another service!

January 17, 2017

Hi Colin, Thanks for the review. We're interested to see your comment that writing in-house scripts will be better for "heavy duty solutions". Many of our customers (including our largest) switched from writing scripts to using ParkMyCloud and between the team/user/AWS credential management, easy way to "snooze" schedules for use of instances outside of normal hours, savings reports, and other featuers provided by ParkMyCloud, they prefer using PMC to their own solutions. So since you have a different opinion, we'd definitely like to hear your feedback - I'll send you an email to follow up. -Katy

### "ParkMyCloud"

January 24, 2017

5.0

Park My Cloud is a unique product that has great potential to reduce cost savings in the cloud. The ability to distribute rights to groups has made the ability for our teams to take advantage of individual application sleep schedules.

Pros

It's versatile and is extremely easy to use. The GUI interface has been much improved from earlier models.

Cons

RDS sleeping would be a huge advantage.

### "ParkMyCloud is a great tool"

February 2, 2017

5.0

It was such a great experience utilizing the features of ParkMyCloud...setting up schedules/calendars is such an easy and simple way to associate with our AWS instances...it saves a lot...as the subscriptions are cost centric and optimization is the KEY...

Pros

Great User Interface, simple and sweet

Cons

some of the icons can be made more intuitive...do not use dark/thick colors...

### "Great way to manage our AWS account and reduce monthly bill"

August 19, 2016

5.0

Allows the company to manage our use of AWS EC2 and schedule our instances based on our company needs. Simple tool which is used by people across the company and helped us save thousands of dollars each month.

Pros

Simple user interface and quick to create schedules.

Cons

Would like to be able to control RDS instances from within the platform.

### "Great Experience"

January 24, 2017

4.0

The features and ease of use fastly became one of the easiest ways to manage the start/stop states of aws instances, and the feature that allowed an instance to be up X number of hours outside schedule was awesome. Would be cool if you could manage that from the AWS console like with a tag you could throw on quick to bypass the schedule without having to login to the PMC console

Pros

GUI, agentless

Cons

needs other admin functionality

Review Source

Response from ParkMyCloud

January 24, 2017

Hi Jesse, Thanks so much for your review! I want to make sure you know about a) our automated policy engine, so if you do have tags from the AWS console you can set rules to automatically put those on schedules, and b) our API, which does allow you to add schedules to instances without logging in to the ParkMyCloud console. Hope those will help. I'll send you an email to follow up! -Katy

### "Easy user interface and clear to understand."

February 1, 2017

5.0

The use of ParkMyCloud allows us to have a clear picture of our infrastructure, the number of resources being used, and when would it make sense to have down time based on the different locations, and more important the potential savings that we can have.

Pros

### "Cost optimization simplified"

February 1, 2017

5.0

when we were first introduced to Park my cloud, I have really appreciated the ease of setup based on Tags and the interface was very innovative and lucid to understand. the real time UI of showing up the actual savings are true reflection of the amount you are saving , which is quite appreciable as calculation based on manual is quite cumbersome as it involves many loose ends. the variety of schedules are really a quite relief as we an schedule it as per our convenience.

Pros

scheduling and UI

Cons

### "Easy to use and fast to start up an environment"

February 1, 2017

4.0

I have used parkMyCloud for over a year now and it is really easy to use. All your environments are on one page and the function of being able to start up an app and stop and app running is easily identifiable and logical. The app starts up within a few minutes and you are away testing or using the app.

Pros

Easy to use

Cons

maybe searching and finding the app you want.
