A powerful and expensive suite of cloud services
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?
Amazon Web Services is the oldest cloud provider then it has a bigger suite of solutions to practically everything you would need to create and run your cloud projects.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Its constant improvement and release of new solutions. Every year AWS launches dozens of new products and features always looking to deliver a greater value to its customers.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Sometimes some products are launched not that mature as they should. I don't know if it due tight deadlines or to offer market advantages but seems some products are released in a rushed way.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Be careful about associated costs with every product offered by Amazon Web Services. You have an unbelievable set of products and solutions at you hand, but this has a high cost and sometimes you can get painful surprises.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
- Unique Features
Cons
- Less Generous
- Less Friendly Negotiation
