List Cost shows the public pricing for your cloud resources, reflecting what you would have paid without any discounts, commitments, or Enterprise Discount Plans. It uses the baseline retail price of services, offering a clear and unbiased view of your cloud spend. This empowers you to take control of your cloud expenses by providing clear, actionable insights based on public pricing data.
What are the benefits of List Cost?
Benchmark Costs: See the raw, unadjusted pricing of your cloud usage.
Simplify Analysis: Understand the true value of your resources without financial manipulations such as Reserved Instances (RIs), promotions, or commitment plans.
Improve Accountability: Evaluate cost anomalies and missed savings opportunities due to lack of coverage or unused resources.
How does it work?
Finout calculates List Cost by sourcing public pricing data from each provider:
AWS: Based on the column pricing_public_on_demand_cost.
GCP: Based on the column cost_at_list.
Add List Cost to your view to analyze your cloud spend at its raw retail value without the noise of discounts or commitments.
