- 🔸One challenge with Ice is that it doesn’t cover amortized cost of reserved instances.
- Other tools include [Security Monkey](https://github.com/Netflix/security_monkey) and [Cloud Custodian](https://github.com/capitalone/cloud-custodian).
- Use [AWS Simple Monthly Calculator](https://calculator.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html) to get an estimate of usage charges for AWS services based on certain information you provide. Monthly charges will be based on your actual usage of AWS services, and may vary from the estimates the Calculator has provided.
- **Third-party services:** Several companies offer services designed to help you gain insights into expenses or lower your AWS bill, such as [OpsClarity](http://www.opsclarity.com/), [Cloudability](https://www.cloudability.com/), [CloudHealth Technologies](https://www.cloudhealthtech.com/), and [ParkMyCloud](http://www.parkmycloud.com/). Some of these charge a percentage of your bill, which may be expensive. See the [market landscape](#tools-and-services-market-landscape).

- AWS’s [Trusted Advisor](https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/trustedadvisor/) is another service that can help with cost concerns.
- Don’t be shy about asking your account manager for guidance in reducing your bill. It’s their job to keep you happily using AWS.
- **Tagging for cost visibility:** As the infrastructure grows, a key part of managing costs is understanding where they lie. It’s strongly advisable to [tag resources](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/resource-groups-and-tagging/), and as complexity grows, group them effectively. If you [set up billing allocation appropriately](http://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-cost-allocation/), you can then get visibility into expenses according to organization, product, individual engineer, or any other way that is helpful.
