Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The business problem Flexera ONE solves is single dashboard to view cloud costs/spend. This platform also allows notifications on usage and automation to clean out specific resources or target groups/departments via desired scheduling. For example, to locate unattached EC2 volumes in AWS and delete them automatically versus each individual logging into their accounts, locating the volumes, and deleting them manually.

Pros

  • Connecting our CSPs into one single dashboard to view spending across AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI
  • Extensive notifications via emails to users or groups regarding resources that need to be reviewed in each CSP.
  • Automated cleanup of unutilized resources in AWS and Azure.

Cons

  • Onboarding had taken 3-6 months... too lengthy to get going.
  • Whitepapers / SOPs were generally incorrect or outdated.
  • Policies continuously errored out which caused incorrect data in reports.
  • Opening tickets and meantime to resolution was on average one week.

Return on Investment

  • Positive impact is displaying spend in a single location.
  • Negative impact is time taken to get entire platform set up and integrated.
  • Negative impact is response time between support (located in India) and company employees (located in USA).
