Case Study: Very Good Security achieves cloud cost clarity and $9,000 monthly savings with Vantage

VGS cuts $9,000 in monthly waste and boosts AWS resource attribution to 99%+ with Vantage

Very Good Security (VGS), a leader in payment tokenization and credential management, faced a significant challenge in tracking and attributing its rapidly scaling AWS cloud costs. With only 30% of resources properly tagged, VGS's Cloud Operations Leader struggled to hold teams accountable for their spending using native AWS tools, leading to unexpected monthly cost overruns and a major visibility problem.

Vantage solved this challenge with its virtual tagging feature, which allowed VGS to retroactively tag nearly all resources and create per-team dashboards for accountability. This solution provided VGS with immediate clarity, identifying and eliminating $9,000 in recurring monthly waste. Vantage also enabled real-time budget alerts and historical spending analysis, saving operational time and shifting the company from reactive cost management to a strategic FinOps approach.
