FAQ

The savings estimate report will include insights derived from your actual usage data such as:
- The savings Opsima will generate for you over the next 12 months.
- Which services these savings will be coming from.
- How you currently compare to your peers in terms of savings rate from commitments, and how you will compare with Opsima

Yes, this report is entirely free and there is no obligation to follow up either.

If you operate with an AWS organization, you will need to connect your AWS Management Account (also called Payer Account) so that we can perform the savings analysis on all accounts attached to it. Only the Management Account provides visibility on attached accounts usage. If you don't have an organization, you just need to connect your only account.

Opsima needs read only permission on your AWS Cost Explorer report to be able to perform the savings estimate. There is also a handshake procedure to send a SNS notification to Opsima once the permission has been granted. This is useful to be able to come back to you quickly with the results.

We will have permission to access only Cost Explorer data which contains only cloud cost and usage data.

By filling out your email, you will be prompted to deploy an AWS Cloud Formation stack that will create an IAM Role. This role is assumed by Opsima to access your Cost Explorer data and run the simulation.

No, the email you provide to perform the savings estimate does not have to be the same as your AWS Management Account email.

We cover AWS for now, Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft Azure will be coming soon.

Yes, it's quick and easy. We'll provide a dedicated link that you can use to securely share with Opsima your Cost Explorer historical usage. Based on this, we will generate a detailed report of your projected savings and where they would be coming from.

Opsima follows the principle of least privilege access. Therefore we only require the permission to purchase Savings Plans and Reserved Capacity. That’s it. Opsima has no access to your code, your applications or your data.

There is absolutely no impact on your infrastructure, meaning Opsima will not and cannot access, deploy, start, stop, modify or delete any of your resources such as instances, databases etc.

Yes absolutely. Opsima optimizes commitment decisions on your behalf, so we work just fine whether you purchase directly from AWS or through a reseller. We are on your side and provide our expertise to help you make better decisions effortlessly.

Opsima's billing cycle is monthly and aligned with AWS. Every month, you will receive a bill from Opsima, for an amount equivalent to 20% of the savings we have generated for you. In other words, the savings will pay for themselves!

Yes, you can. Opsima’s optimization engine will factor in your existing Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, adjusting its strategy to maximize your savings. We will not take any fee on any pre-existing commitments.

You can, but we strongly encourage you to let Opsima handle all of your commitments to maximize your savings. We implement sophisticated strategies that perform best when not affected by external action.

There is no formal minimum but we generally start to bring meaningful value above €3k of spend per month. Savings will also depend on your usage service mix and various factors. The easiest way to find out is to run a quick simulation of your savings. Ready to give it a go?
