Cloud bills are often the first visible symptom of a deeper operating problem: idle resources, oversized workloads, weak ownership, commitment mistakes, noisy environments, or architecture decisions that no longer match the business. ECG uses CostCut and hands-on cloud review to identify what is leaking money, what is safe to clean up, and what requires engineering change to make savings durable.
Get StartedCostCut surfaces spend patterns, likely waste, rightsizing candidates, idle resources, ownership gaps, and commitment issues so the review starts from evidence instead of hunches.
We analyze utilization and resource state to find oversized workloads, idle infrastructure, orphaned resources, old snapshots, unused capacity, and cleanup candidates. Recommendations are tied to expected savings and implementation risk.
Savings Plans, reserved capacity, storage tiers, data transfer patterns, autoscaling, and managed services can all change the bill. We separate finance-only moves from architecture changes that need engineering judgment.
One-time optimization doesn't stick. We help implement budgets, alerts, and approval workflows that prevent cost surprises. We also help establish FinOps practices so cost awareness becomes part of your engineering culture.
ECG keeps the service mix tied to the actual environment, operating model, and business pressure.
Spend trends, usage drivers, allocation gaps, forecasting, and suspicious cost movement
Overprovisioned workloads, idle resources, orphaned assets, stale storage, and low-risk cleanup wins
Savings Plans, reserved capacity, predictable baselines, and flexibility tradeoffs
Autoscaling, storage tiers, data transfer patterns, managed services, and platform decisions behind the bill
Budgets, alerts, tagging, chargeback, dashboards, accountability, and recurring review loops
We dig into billing data, usage patterns, and resource state to understand the biggest cost drivers and the most promising optimization opportunities.
We deliver prioritized recommendations with estimated savings, implementation effort, and risk assessment for each. You'll know exactly what to do, what it'll save, and how much work it'll take.
We help implement quick wins immediately and work with your team on larger optimization initiatives. We make sure changes don't impact performance or reliability.
We help establish ongoing cost monitoring, alerting, and governance practices so optimization becomes continuous rather than a one-time project.

Cloud cost review and savings signal
CostCut provides a focused way to review cloud spend for waste, rightsizing opportunities, commitment issues, cleanup candidates, and architecture decisions that may be driving unnecessary cost.
Have questions? We have answers. If you don't see what you're looking for, feel free to reach out.
Most organizations we work with see 20-40% savings on their cloud spend. The actual number depends on your current state - organizations that have never done cost optimization often see larger savings, while those who've already done some work may see less. We provide realistic estimates based on analysis of your actual environment.
It shouldn't, and we're careful to avoid that. We analyze actual utilization data before recommending changes, and we test changes before implementing them broadly. Cost optimization done right means paying for what you need, not cutting corners that affect users.
Our deepest expertise is in AWS, but the principles of cost optimization apply across cloud providers. We can help with multi-cloud environments and have done cost optimization work in Azure. If you're primarily Azure or GCP, let's talk about your specific situation.
You commit to using a certain amount of compute capacity over 1-3 years in exchange for significant discounts (typically 30-70% vs on-demand). The risk is committing to capacity you don't end up using. We analyze your usage patterns to recommend the right level of commitment that balances savings with flexibility.
Yes. Data transfer costs are often surprising and can be optimized through architecture changes, CDN usage, VPC endpoint configurations, and choosing the right regions. We've helped organizations cut data transfer costs by 50%+ through targeted optimizations.
