Allows for automatic scaling of resources and provides built-in firewalls and security features, eliminating the need for external security solutions
One thing that's a bit different is that we're still accustomed to speaking to someone directly. AWS doesn't offer that kind of support. It's only through bots. You're speaking to chatbots, and that can sometimes be frustrating because there's no person on the other side. AI is not a substitute for a person. AWS marketplace is very strong, but somehow AWS doesn't promote it much. They have a huge customer base across the globe, and if products were launched in their marketplace, they could sell like hotcakes. They should improve their marketplace and promote the same product across the globe. They can take a cut, but they should promote it. That's something they don't do very much. So, AWS should promote its marketplace software. The company should promote it aggressively. Currently, they keep it very subtle. If you ask for it, they'll help you out. But they don't seem to advertise, "You're building a product on our platform? Why don't you sell it in our marketplace?" Improvement in AI: AWS is a little behind Microsoft Azure in terms of AI. AWS is still getting there, but the kind of examples and help files available in Azure for AI are much better. So AWS still needs to work on its AI functionality.

Performance and availability of services need improvement
NTT Cloud needs to analyze feature offerings from AWS and Azure. Additionally, they should do marketing and be more vocal about the services. They should further ensure the availability of the services as well. I rate NTT Cloud a three out of ten. In comparison, AWS and Azure are easier to fit into the environment in terms of reliability.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Technical support has been great."
"The product is easy to use."
"It streamlines tasks like table creation and data loading into Redshift, making the process more efficient and manageable."
"The product is reliable and quite stable."
"The reason I like AWS is that they have a large market share and a large presence. When it comes to our use case, a big positive is that MuleSoft and AWS are working together very well. So instead of competing against each other, they're meshing together."
"It's easy to manage. We can use a wide range of technologies with AWS."
"It scales extremely well."
"AWS is known for its scalable cloud hosting and computing services. We use various features depending on our needs, including endpoint services, database instances, and EC2 instances."
"The pricing and services that surround the solution are great. For example, if we need to find a partner in a country where they do not have a cloud, they will help us find that partner. Solutions such as Amazon and Oracle do not offer this level of service."
"The initial setup process is more accessible than one of its competitors."
 

Cons

"Amazon support could be better."
"Pricing is the one feature everyone wants AWS to improve."
"The networking is overly complex."
"The solution could always be further improved on the commercial side of things. Amazon Web Services are not cheap. It would be ideal if it was less expensive for the customer."
"Amazon AWS is a very poor product for students. Microsoft Azure is a better solution."
"There is no control of downtime."
"The technical support should be better than what is on offer right now."
"Some of the storage services could be cheaper."
"The solution could use more advanced monitoring."
"NTT Cloud’s performance could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are many variables involved in pricing service in AWS and overall the pricing is a bit on the higher side."
"It is comparable if you add in the price structure to an on-prem solution."
"When we shifted the load to AWS we paid a high cost as the mail stores were hosted on EBS. The storage cost drastically reduced after moving to S3."
"The Oracle licensing is higher than it is with Amazon AWS."
"This solution offers good pricing."
"Its pricing model is too complex."
"It is quite expensive in my very personal opinion. Going on-prem in a data center is, for sure, not as expensive as going to AWS, but when it comes to a point where you are raising and growing, it simply makes a lot of sense to stay in AWS. It is awesome in that way. I am not aware of any extra costs."
"It's paid on a monthly basis and you have to pay for the resources that you use."
"I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
