Amazon AWS Reviews

We are a hospital system provider. We use the solution in order to provide provisions to the hospital. The client didn't want to host on-premises, and therefore we are using this product.

If there are issues, I come and check on them, however, I rarely use the solution, which suggests it's pretty problem-free. It works pretty seamlessly.

The initial setup is very straightforward and I didn't have any issues with configuring the solution.

The solution can scale quite well.

Technical support is pretty decent so far.

The pricing of the solution could be better. It's a little pricey.

I've been working with the solution for the past two years or so.

I haven't seen anything that would make me assume that solution can't scale as much as you need it to. It seems to be pretty scalable. There are no limitations.

I've found the technical support to be pretty decent overall. You do need to give them some time, however, largely we are satisfied with their level of helpfulness.

I am not extensively using the solution and I didn't do any work on the AWS; there's a DevOps team who will do the configuration.

That said, it's very straightforward. I didn't face any complexity in configuring AWS, for example.

As integrators, we can implement the solution for our clients.

It would be ideal if the solution cost the customer less. It's expensive right now.

We're integrators and service providers. We offer services to our clients.

We use a private VPN for the solution.

I'd recommend the solution to other organizations, so long as the company doesn't care about the pricing.

I would rate the solution eight out of ten, simply due to the fact that the cost is high. They lose points there.

We mainly use AWS, EC2, and RDS. We also use the BI tools and the data warehouse.

The most important feature is deploying our production in multi-data regions around the world.

I think the price can be improved. The price is high now, and Amazon's web portal can be improved.

We have been using Amazon AWS for about four years.

Amazon AWS is a stable solution.

It's scalable now that EC2 can support scaling.

The initial setup is straightforward, and we deploy our production every week.

The price can be better. 

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Amazon AWS a five.

I have my own company, so I am not personally working with it. Rather, my team is working with this solution. 

My experience with AWS has been good. AWS is a good vehicle to get your business started without too much of an upfront investment.

I like the flexibility of this solution. It's quick ramp up, ramp down, being able to provide the resources at a click of a button. 

If you wanted to try a new solution or try it out for a Proof of Concept then provisioning the EC2 and the S3 buckets is very quick.

In addition to that, the sums of scaling operations.

The dashboard is very easy to use.

Its real-time support is pretty good.

I would appreciate more direct support from AWS. I have some good personal contacts with AWS and through that, I am able to get some help. But, on a professional level with a small to medium-sized enterprise that needs any direct support from AWS, it is not supported. It is typically a part of the business model. They encourage you to go through one of their Implementation partners.

I have been using Amazon AWS for two and a half years.

The overall stability of the product is good.

We have not used the technical support from AWS, because we are a company without a partnership. We contact their implementation partners for support. We also work closely with our client's implementation partners who have been fairly helpful. They have been able to deliver.

The technical support from AWS has not been very forthcoming. It is very difficult to get.

We also use Lambda functions, such as trolling, multi-threaded, and compute as a service model. That is very interesting. 

We liked it very much, and we use it for some of our clients.

Pricing is reasonable, but as your usage goes up, AWS has a provision for businesses, and there's an option of locking it for three years. 

I think that they also give discounts. Although, as your scale of operation goes up, I think the price probably becomes too high.

As a startup business, it's very well priced, but if a number of transactions go up, clients have voiced that they are in a situation and feel a type of pressure and desire to move out of AWS.

They feel this way only once the scale of operation goes beyond a critical mass or critical threshold. It becomes a completely managed service beyond a point, and then it no longer remains cost-effective. Our usage goes up as well as the monthly recurring costs.

So the price is something they should definitely look at. They should look at some kind of cost or price optimization, as the scale grows up large, the more the economies of scale keep in. They should try to become more competitive.

Overall, I am very happy in the technicality area.

I would rate Amazon AWS a nine out of ten.

I use this product for hosting business applications like SAP on the AWS infrastructure. We have some new customers in Egypt and out of Egypt. This solution is magnificent. 

In our company, Amazon provides us with a lot of help like training for our staff. They always support us with any service or any solution. The security updates is perfect. and also supports for customers.

There are many benefits to AWS. For our customers, it optimizes their TCO. In terms of  computing, they can scale up and out. 

There's not specific things for improvement but that being said, they can improve the overall process and features of the product and to enhancement the stability.

It's stable enough. In terms of actual numbers, it's 99.99% stable.

Scalability is really perfect. I can make any scale anytime, whether I scale out or scale up.

Their technical support is really good. I am very satisfied.

Amazon is the leader in the public cloud categories, it has the largest market shares. I ask our customers why they're not using it. 

I would rate this solution a 9.5 out of ten. It's the leader in the public cloud and a leader in the market. 

I would recommend it to any customer using another solution. I would offer it as an alternative to another similar solution like IBM, Google and Azure.

I used Amazon AWS for a financial company.

Amazon AWS has a good Redshift database. 

Amazon AWS is a very poor product for students and difficult find out solutions. Microsoft Azure is a better solution.

I have used Amazon AWS within the past 12 months.

I have used Microsoft Azure.

I have implemented Amazon with the Redshift database for the ETL components.

I find Amazon AWS very expensive compare to Microsoft Azure.

I have evaluated Google cloud.

I rate Amazon AWS a seven out of ten.

Web server hosting of a simple LAMP setup using Linux, Apache, and MySQL. Quick, cheap proof of concept solutions. 

No need for an on-premise infrastructure. It provides immediate access to vast resources at a relatively low cost and allows for setting up cheap PoCs.

For testing, it is a cheap alternative to having to build your own labs.  Provisioning and resource administration include billing dashboards, which are very extensive.

Not enough experience to really comment on this. 

In some areas, more transparency on what is persistent towards novice users. 

We hosted our website in the Amazon AWS. This is very easy to use and the user-friendly dashboard. 

Amazon AWS has improved our organization. It has all the features which we need. We can spin up the server anytime and have root access to it. We built our website and hosted the Amazon server. We also set up the RDS database, which has the capability to help the MySQL queries. The user interface is very user-friendly, and you can assign Elastic IP anytime. Overall, this is the best IaaS for hosting the website and the database.

1. Spin up the server when we need it: We can spun up the new server. 
2. Elastic IP: Sometimes, our website gets hacked with malware and it is easy to change the IP of the Instance.
3. Snapshot: We can easily create a snapshot in Amazon AWS, then restore it.
4. RDS: Manages all the database queries.
5. Instance upgrade and downgrade: We can easily upgrade and downgrade the Instance.

Technical support: It has the technical support features, but they need to be improved. It has lots of users, but they need to be managed accordingly.

One of the best things in Amazon AWS is you are billed for the service you use.
