## Reviews

### "Good for Cost Tracking, but Needs UI Improvements" — 4.0/5

> **Yashshvi** | *21 October 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: • Provides good value for money since it's part of AWS and evades extra licensing costs.
• It becomes second nature to use after you are familiar with the user interface; filtering and grouping are powerful.
• Strong data management with detailed breakup on service, tags, or accounts.
• Cloud integrations with other AWS services such as Budgets and CloudWatch enable better monitoring of costs.
> 
> **Cons**: • The experience with customer support is sluggish in relation to the swiftness of matters concerning expenditure.
• The user interface is occasionally bug-prone and glitchy when importing big datasets while exporting from report sheets.
• It is not so user-friendly for new customers, and service-level detail occasionally requires specific endeavors. and Reliable and stable within AWS ecosystem, but limited to AWS only
> 
> AWS Cost Explorer is a good tool to track and control cloud spending. It provides good value, seamless integration with AWS tools, and advanced data management features. It is hindered by a high learning curve, occasional glitches, and low support responsiveness. All in all, it's good for cost awareness but can be improved in usability and support.
