Features and Benefits

OpenOps is built for FinOps practitioners: engineers, architects, analysts and managers.

It’s a No-Code tool and is therefore approachable for practitioners without an extensive technical background. However, it still allows you to “drop into” code whenever you need to.

Here’s a rundown of the major features and benefits that OpenOps provides:

• A pre-made library of FinOps best-practice workflows based on research and input from hundreds of FinOps leaders. The workflows cover various FinOps processes like cost optimization, tagging, budgeting, allocation, and reporting.
• Building workflows from scratch or customization of the pre-made workflows to fit your organization’s needs using a No-Code workflow editor based on Activepieces.
• Out-of-the-box integrations with major cloud providers, FinOps platforms, task and project managers, and other relevant tools. These include:
  • Managed databases: Amazon RDS, Azure SQL, Google Cloud SQL, Cloud Firestore
  • Buckets and storage: Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage
  • Data warehouses: Snowflake
  • Cloud cost and optimization tools: AWS Compute Optimizer, AWS Trusted Advisor, Azure Advisor, Anodot, Apptio, CloudHealth, Ternary
  • Communications: Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord
  • Task and project management tools: Jira Cloud, Monday, Notion, Asana, Trello
  • Version control and IaC: GitHub, Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, Azure Resource Manager
• Test runs on every step of workflow editing, workflow version control, and detailed traceability of every workflow run to make sure that your workflow definitions and runs are reliable.
• Human-in-the-Loop mechanisms to enforce control over critical optimizations. Before running deletions or scale-downs, you can make sure to get oversight and approval from stakeholders using notifications with quick action buttons.
• Tables to log opportunities and anomalies in a central location, with options to approve, dismiss, mark as false positive, or snooze. You can also use tables to process billing data, map resources to owners, or generate spend reports.
