Amazon Virtual Private Cloud Reviews

The solution can be used to isolate a cloud within a cloud infrastructure. It allows us to have an isolated or air-gapped environment.

The product can be used to isolate environments. It's good for security. It is a very good feature irrespective of which cloud provider we use. It also allows us to connect two VPCs in different zones. We haven’t had any issues with the solution. It satisfies all our requirements.

The tool is not scalable.

I have been using the solution for around three years.

The tool is stable.

The number of users depends on each project. We might have three to four people from DevOps and more than 100 users from the project teams.

The initial setup is very easy and quick.

The solution is worth the money.

The pricing is okay. The solution is not very expensive. Compared to other solutions, it is fine.

The tool is used for the isolation of our environment. It is a set of rules within our cloud environment to separate whatever we have created as a virtual cloud. I highly recommend the solution. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

We use Amazon VPC primarily for our organization's security needs. It helps us maintain isolation and control over our cloud services, similar to our Microsoft cloud service. We use it to communicate with our analytics securely and easily.

The main feature I like about Amazon VPC is its security capabilities, including security groups and subnets. It is easy to implement and manage our systems within specific subnets. Additionally, using Terraform for management tasks simplifies the process, and VPC's provision of basic details makes managing the infrastructure straightforward.

In terms of VPC itself, I haven't encountered any major areas for improvement. However, one concern is the cost, which can be relatively high compared to other cloud providers like Azure and Google Cloud. This can sometimes lead to considerations of switching to a different provider for cost optimization.

I have been using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud for over three years.

I would rate the stability of the solution as a ten out of ten.

VPC's scalability is excellent because there are no limitations on deploying VPCs. I would rate the scalability as a ten out of ten.

I haven't encountered any issues with Amazon's technical support team. I would rate them as a nine out of ten.

Positive

Setting up a network in Amazon VPC is straightforward and beginner-friendly. Deployment took about ten minutes. The user interface is easy to navigate, and Amazon provides comprehensive guidelines and resources to help users understand the setup process. Additionally, updates and new features are regularly provided.

We use Amazon VPC to scale our resources efficiently. We employ horizontal auto-scaling with auto-scaling groups to automatically adjust capacity based on fluctuations in traffic. By setting scaling policies and planning ahead, we ensure seamless resource allocation as traffic increases or decreases. While we primarily use horizontal scaling, we also consider vertical scaling when necessary.

Integrating VPC with other AWS services is seamless and essential for most AWS deployments. Whenever we create resources in Amazon, such as EC2 instances or Auto Scaling Groups, we rely on VPC to provide the necessary networking configuration, like IP address ranges and subnets. This integration simplifies the setup process and is easy to understand and manage.

I would recommend Amazon VPC, but it is essential to consider the cost compared to other cloud services like Azure and Google Cloud. For those using VPC for the first time, understand basic networking concepts like IP addressing and subnetting, prioritize security measures, and plan your VPC deployment based on your specific requirements.

Overall, I would rate Amazon VPC as a ten out of ten.

We have to install and configure AWS resources with the solution. 

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud isolates networks and offers robust network security. It also adds two network security layers. 

The solution has separate subnets and routing tables.  

The performance insights and VPC flow logs should be in the form of GUI or dashboards. The solution needs to work on integration with the transit gateway and multiple accounts. 

I have been using the tool since 2016. 

I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. 

I rate Amazon Virtual Private Cloud's scalability a nine out of ten. 

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud has good engineers. 

Positive

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud's deployment is straightforward. 

We have seen ROI with the solution's use. 

The solution is pricey but worth its money. 

It would be best to have a proper architecture before setting up Amazon Virtual Private Cloud. You must discuss beforehand whether you will have a single-VPC or multi-VPC environment. It will stand as a pillar for future needs and growth. Therefore, planning and documentation is very critical. I rate it a ten out of ten. 

The tool helps to deploy on AWS. As a company, you may want to deploy or migrate your services from a data center to AWS. 

You can get a direct link to AWS to your data even if you are a large organization with a huge data center. 

The tool needs to improve its stability and support which should be faster. The product's pricing is also expensive. When we scale up, we have to pay more. 

I am using the product since 2018. 

I would rate the solution's stability a seven out of ten. 

I would rate the product's scalability a five out of ten. My company has 20 users for the solution. We use the solution on a daily basis. 

The tool's setup is easy and I would rate it a nine out of ten. It's easy to setup and onboard to AWS. However, you would need technical knowledge to troubleshoot. The tool's deployment took one to two weeks to complete. We first conducted a cost-benefit analysis and presented it to the management. Once it was approved, it had a look at the service offerings from AWS and worked on the design based on the AWS architecture framework. We used the Lambda function for the deployment and Terraform to automate the process. We had a five-member deployment team that consisted of demo guys, solution architects, DevOps solution architects, etc. I supervised the overall deployment. 

AWS offers 100 percent ROI for a startup. 

I would rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten. 

I have evaluated Azure where the approach and terminologies is very different from AWS. 

I would rate the product a seven out of ten. You need to sit down with your stakeholder and identify the advantages of migrating to AWS. You need to conduct an analysis on whether you really need to migrate to AWS. You need to be also aware that when the number of services deployed on the cloud increases, the cost also increases. 

I have been working on various projects including ERP solutions and data projects where we need a robust and versatile environment setup. due to its seamless integration options, network isolation and private endpoints, we found it as the best for our projects. 

Actually, there are a bunch of features such as manageable Ip addresses (IPAM), network ACLs, private links, VPC endpoints, transit gateways, global accelerator. Especially with our data projects, we feel more confident with AWS services in effectively managing the security of our infrastructure.

Um... it could be something like an AI-based network security solution based on usage and industry standard patterns.

We have been using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud for four years.

The solution is generally stable, and I consider AWS a reliable cloud service provider compared to others. However, we encountered some issues recently, such as extending the quota without success, possibly due to a bug. Nevertheless, these issues were resolved within 24 hours.

The platform helps us effectively utilize our company resources, including databases. I rate the scalability an eight out of ten.

The technical support team is good and supportive.

Positive

I also worked on Azure for some project requirement. But I prefer AWS over Azure for stable and bug free console experience. AWS is more robust and reliable.

The initial setup was pretty straightforward for us. Since, we are using Terraform IAC, a ready to deploy environment is just a command away.

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud is the heart of the application, and we use it for our private network.

The solution's subnetting feature is good and has impacted our network design. We can create multiple machines with subnetting services. We can divide the CIDR with the help of subnets. It provides security, and we can create subnets in public and private.

When we create instances without public IP, the paid services provided by the solution, NAT gateway, are costly.

I have been using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud for three years.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten for stability.

Around 50 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability a nine out of ten.

The solution’s initial setup is easy.

It takes two or three hours to deploy Amazon Virtual Private Cloud.

In our environment, we have public and private infrastructure. The public front-end applications are directly accessible to the client. In a private network, we use database machines, like RDS machines.

It's easy to set up security groups in the new versions of Amazon Virtual Private Cloud. AWS also provides options to create subnets with the solution. I would recommend the solution to other users. A client using AWS needs to create an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use the solution to make network connections between instances, VMs, databases, or other services present in the cloud. We have a connection to both private and public clouds.

The product’s firewall is very good. It is a very strong tool. The solution works without any issues with other AWS services.

The initial setup is complex. We need to configure each link, check that it's connected, and virtualize it. The complexity is in the preparation to implement the configuration inside the cloud. It takes a lot of time to migrate the configuration from the physical to the virtual network.

I have been using the solution for three to four months.

The product is stable.

The product is scalable. The solution is suitable for small, medium, and large companies.

The technical support is very good. The team is responsive and always gives us the optimal solution.

Positive

We use some tests and check configurations to deploy the solution.

We can use the tool for free. However, there is a cost associated with traffic outside the cloud. We do not have to pay for an extra license for the product.

I recommend the solution to our customers. We use the solution because our customer uses AWS, and they want to use a native AWS solution. People who want to implement the tool must implement it in the right way and check with support regarding the recommended actions. Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten.

We use Amazon VPC to host our EC2 instances. 

With an AWS virtual private cloud, you're in charge of what you use. It's pay-as-you-go.

You should be able to toggle off some cloud services when you don't need them and switch them on when necessary. 

We've been using Amazon VPC for about two or three years.

I rate Amazon VPC nine out of 10 for ease of setup. The basic setup is easy, but you can do some advanced configurations. It's straightforward overall. The standard deployment takes about one minute. However, the time needed to complete the rest of the configuration depends on your infrastructure and third-party applications. Four or five DevOps engineers work with the solution. 

You will see a return if you're using it correctly. For example, some people might use an improper family class for their EC2 instances.

The price is based on how long you want your VPCs to run. It also depends on the class and family of the VPCs and the resources running underneath. 

I'm not sure why the company adopted AWS. It's one of the most popular cloud platforms. Also, they have already deployed lots of resources on AWS, so it makes sense to continue with it. 

I rate AWS Virtual Private Cloud eight out of 10. I recommend it. We save money by not running an on-prem server, so it's definitely worth it. It's flexible and light, yeah.
