Managing cloud credits efficiently
Our engineering team uses multiple cloud providers, and tracking credits from AWS and GCP is turning into a full-time job. Some accounts still have unused credits while others are paying extra. I’ve been assigned to find a way to centralize cloud cost visibility without switching providers. Ideally, I want something that shows usage trends and alerts before credits expire. Any ideas?

We had the same mess with AWS credits last year. Someone recommended checking out https://www.spendbase.co/ since they offer a section dedicated to cloud discounts and credits. It helped us pool existing credits and identify which accounts were overspending. Plus, it provided clear insights on which services were underused. That level of transparency helped our DevOps team forecast cloud budgets more accurately and avoid sudden billing spikes.
