The challenge
Manual reporting slows down processes
Existing FinOps solutions don’t offer true carbon footprint visibility
Lack of price estimation lets unexpected costs mount upTick-tock goes the money clock..
No business can afford to ignore cloud costs and waste and let’s be honest - until now it’s been a messy business. Cloud expense data is spread across different providers’ interfaces, each with its own reporting system, so viewing them all in a centralized manner is nearly impossible. Getting your cloud carbon footprint is even harder - at best, all you get are estimations and, at worst, incorrect or delayed data. That's why we added our FinOps solution within our platform
If you’re looking to take real control of your cloud usage and reduce cloud waste and your carbon footprint, you’ll be pleased to learn that Cycloid has something else to offer you.
Look after the pennies so the business value can look after itself!
Why Cycloid?
Cost prediction built-in from the ground up
Wouldn’t it be nice to see how much you’re spending before deployment? Cycloid’s Cloud Cost Estimation - based on our open-source FinOps feature TerraCost - estimates the price of an infrastructure based on the related Terraform and is integrated into Pipelines and StackForms. Avoid unpleasant surprises by letting your end-users see the cost of their deployment before they hit run, and create a culture of shared business responsibility on your teams.
True cost visibility
Centralize and monitor all your cloud expenses in a single place. Our built-in Cloud Cost Management module gives you a graphical representation of your costs in a single panel view which you can filter by project, provider (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform), tag, region, date, and more.
Reduce cloud waste
An average company wastes 40% of its (contracted and paid for) cloud resources... Not only is this financially inefficient, but it’s also very harmful to the environment. Our FinOps module comes with a built-in Cloud Carbon Footprint feature that allows you to take a deeper look at your cloud carbon emissions and take better, environmentally-conscious decisions when it comes to cloud consumption.
Asset management made easy
Never lose another gigabyte! Our Asset Inventory module allows you to view all your public and private cloud resources in a single panel, so you know exactly how much has been used by project, team, provider and more. Worrying about overusing private cloud resources? Create resource quotas in Quota Management and allocate private cloud assets (Nutanix, VMWare) per team.
Cloud costs are the very last thing you should leave to chance
Outcomes
Closer monitoring
No more prescriptive cost control or unexpected expenses - if everyone’s responsible for cost management, nothing gets lost in translation.
Greater visibility
Transparency and collaboration lead to better cloud decisions and safer innovation.
Reduced costs
When you know exactly what you’re spending on and the cloud carbon impact of your deployments, you can take steps towards reducing it.
