We've been able to reduce our monthly costs by resizing several EC2 instances. The performance monitoring and alerts have helped us with proactive issue resolution before our customers noticed and performance issues. Customer support is always ready and eager to help with any issues or questions. Their follow-up contact is also great. > > **Cons**: Sometimes the amount of options and filters available can be a bit overwhelming, especially in the reporting area. Since the product is based on weekly performance of metrics, monthly and bi-monthly performance patterns can cause false alerts. No support for older Operating Systems: Windows Server 2003 (required for legacy 3rd party software), Oracle Linux 5. > > We've been using Metricly for a couple years now and the overall benefits have been great. Very affordable price, cost saving features, and great depth of metrics when analyzing performance. ----- ### "Experience has been great. They put a lot of effort into developing a great and useful product" — 5.0/5 > **Kristofer** | *27 February 2018* > > **Pros**: I love the flexibility and ease of getting data into their system. They support many software systems with a easy interface to navigate to setup new data sources. They also provide a number of means to push arbitrary data into their system via statsd and custom push endpoints. They make it really easy to instrument and visualize just about anything in your infra. > > **Cons**: The dashboarding and charting system is inflexible for our needs. They also lack a data endpoint to support 3rd party products like Grafana. Being able to combine / mix and match the data with other data sources in a TV / HUD format would make this product great for us. ----- ### "Metricly Review" — 4.0/5 > **John** | *04 March 2019* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how it breaks down metrics at different time lengths. I also like the visual representation of the metrics shown. I like the customer service we receive. > > **Cons**: How slow it can be. How confusing the usage can be. Its pretty simple for the most part but the ease of use can definitely be made better. > > Metricly has been very helpful in developing charts, alerts and graphs that I have been requesting tot show the differences between costs one month over another month. The customer support has been excellent, useful and beneficial. They have really worked with me closely to meet any goals that I have. Looking forward to continue to work with them. ----- ### "Metricly has simplified and improved our AWS monitoring" — 4.0/5 > **Douglas** | *11 December 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of generating alert policies including checks of multiple metrics, ability to view the same metric across different elements of the same type , custom costing reports for AWS, ability to send external events to Metricly. The dashboard tools are also very useful to create high level views of our infrastructure. > > **Cons**: Ability to test policy conditions needs o be added to ensure confidence in the policy. Ability to have multiple conditions to select elements in AWS via custom tags needs to be added so that it is more easily controlled what goes into the inventory. I would also like to see improvements into the Zorka JVM monitoring application that is used , we havent gotten much use out of that yet. > > Metricly has been a part of our environment for 2+ years, and has greatly increased our visibility into our AWS infrastructure with and our peace of mind with the alerting capabilities. They are constantly evolving the product and have been very helpful and responsive to ideas and our use cases. ----- ### "Metricly provides greater value than industry leading competing products for our AWS Cloud." — 5.0/5 > **Michael** | *20 February 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Metricly provides cost controls leveraging built-in analytics to analyze AWS usage patterns to reduce overall monthly spend. The cost savings is greater than the tool cost, enabling DevOps to justify Metricly use case. Metricly goes much further with value by monitoring individual EC2 instances metrics to further tailor cost-savings by right sizing CPU, and enabling our OPS department at-a-glance understand EC2 resource usage. (Network, CPU, Disk, etc). DevOps management complexity is expanding exponentially, and Metricly helps reduce the complexity by providing automatic resource threshold warning levels using heuristics to set warning levels issuing tickets to our DevOps group. With this feature, metricly becomes a tool with minimal administration while providing full value for monitoring, cost control, and historical SLA at a glance. > > Cost control and insight into AWS resource usage with automatic adjusting heuristic alerts. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/112587/metricly?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/112587/metricly) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
