Untab review
A focused Kubernetes cost-management tool for teams that need chargeback and rightsizing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Untab is a Kubernetes cost management product for engineering and platform teams. It collects cluster metrics through an agent and presents reports in a web portal. Teams can track costs by pod, service, namespace, and team; create internal chargeback reports; review cluster financial health; and identify expensive or inefficient workloads. Untab supports both cloud and on-premise Kubernetes, with billing based on cloud-provider bills, public prices, or custom price sheets. Installation uses a Helm-based agent, and the product is available through web and self-hosted deployments.
Pricing is structured around four monthly plans. Small costs $100 per month, Medium costs $500 per month, and Large costs $1,000 per month. Enterprise is also available. Each listed plan includes unlimited seats and email support. The paid tiers focus on access to the same core cost-management use case rather than presenting different feature bundles: cost tracking, chargeback, financial reporting, efficiency assessment, resource recommendations, and AWS or GCP billing integration. Teams should compare the monthly commitment with the scale of their Kubernetes environment and the value of allocation and optimization reporting.
Untab’s strongest area is cost visibility at workload level. It can recommend Kubernetes resource requests and limits, helping teams connect financial reporting with efficiency review. Its ecosystem includes Kubernetes, Helm, Prometheus, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud Platform. The product is a focused choice for teams that need transparent allocation across cloud or on-premise clusters. Teams looking for forecasting, budget alerts, commitment optimization, or a free entry tier should choose a product centered on those capabilities instead. Documentation pages were last updated six years ago, which is a consideration for buyers assessing ongoing documentation currency.
