Automated Idle Resource Management
Harness Cloud AutoStopping™ saves customers up to 70% in their non-production environments by automatically detecting, shutting down, and auto-starting idle resources.
See Costs in Your Perspective
Perspectives give you customized views in the way you do business, built on your cost categories, for the most granular cost reporting for multi-cloud and Kubernetes deployments.
Cloud Asset Governance
Don’t just report on cloud costs, get ahead of them with FinOps-as-Code, automated cost governance policies that find and remediate idle/orphaned resources and enforce compliance.
How does
Finout
compare?
Finout focuses primarily on cost reporting, and has added support for viewing cloud providers, Kubernetes, and several key SaaS applications in a single view, organized by “Virtual Tags” that allow you to do some basic cost grouping. Beyond that, they’ve begun to add recommendations for AWS and Kubernetes, but lack the breadth of support other vendors already have. They lack the full cost savings automation, cost governance and granular cost reporting capabilities that Harness provides out of the box.
