Cloud governance has improved and teams optimize costs with automated real-time visibility
Hyperglance features help in codeless automation, which means we can fix common issues and optimize resources without doing any coding. Hyperglance has positively impacted our organization by helping us with agentless and self-hosted deployments, which has saved 38% time for deployments that we used to do manually. The automated process has saved us time and money as we cut resources. In the metrics we have tracked, we have saved 22% in costs. The time and cost savings from Hyperglance have allowed our team to focus on other projects and improved our workflow. Hyperglance has helped us save on cost, improve efficiency, and reduce manual work while enabling real-time compliance checks with very good features. We have saved a lot of time and resources by reducing the manual work which the new team needs to do. Now the team is occupied in other work and they are more productive, providing us more user stories in the organization.

Identifies and eliminates overprovisioning of expensive resources like storage, highly scalable and offers performance
I like the overall product because I can select what monitoring should be enabled and whatnot. In our case, we really focus on performance because it's clear that the price is related to most performance setups. So the more performance, the more expensive. So we look into the performance that the customer needs, and then based upon that feedback from the remote control, we change the parameters. And even the end user will not notice it is not using it, so we just make money without any impact on the end users.

"Hyperglance: Up to 5000 Resources [Pay as you go] provided a visual representation of our cloud resources and usage, showing which EC2 instances were underutilized or overprovisioned, and recommended resizing the instances based on actual usage, which led to a reduction of 30% to 35% in cloud spending."
"Hyperglance has improved our organization by giving us a single view of all resources across GovCloud, helping us quickly identify misconfigurations, maintain compliance, and reduce manual work that used to take hours."
