"Innovation meet practical challenges with costing"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

All services with pay as you go feature, global infrastructure, scalability & flexibility, security, more than 300 services including AI&ML all in one place, IAC code and automation, ease of implementation and good customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Complex pricing structure, it has costing for each and every services for if you use it for a minute or two, documentation in not very much proper in each document you have to go to another document to get more info about that. GUI changes very frequently somehow we get usedto the gui but the moment we get used to it the gui changes which make it difficult to understand the gui. support plans are costly if you want more better support for ease of implementation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AWS review by DevOps Engineer"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

AWS is the leading cloud provider in the market having the highest share. I find it easy to use their service because they have a good documentation on various services available on the platform.

So when you are developing a new feature, it's easy to refer and implement it in your product. Which makes integration very smooth. I use it daily in my job for various features that it provides.

It also has a good customer care support if we need to ask any queries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

It can be a little costly sometimes. It may not be very beginner friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My professional user experience of AWS Cloud"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

The first thing I like about AWS cloud is it's user friendly user interface and the documentation it offers for its users.

Being the largest cloud provider, it offers vast number of features that one can implement in their software development workflows.

The learning opportunities and contents that AWS offers is very much useful to cloud learners who begin with AWS as their first cloud platform.

Easy integration with multiple other platforms makes it easier for developers to work with in their software development process and day-to-day activities utilising AWS cloud.

Implementing a new workflow in AWS is much easier and simpler compared to the competitors.

The customer support AWS offers is really fantastic, including the basic support that it offers even with free of cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Given that AWS cloud has plenty of features, the cost of those features really comes at higher price compared to the other cloud providers such as Azure and GCP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"12 Years In — Still One of the Most Transformative Platforms in Tech"
What do you like best about AWS Cloud?

I've been using AWS for over 12 years, and it’s no exaggeration to say it helped shape my career. I've built products on AWS that have impacted industries and people, and the platform has never let me down. The breadth, reliability, and depth of services have made it possible to move fast, scale confidently, and bring big ideas to life.

What’s equally impressive is that their customer-centric philosophy isn’t just talk — it’s real. Every interaction I’ve had, especially in moments of need through support, has reinforced that they genuinely care about their users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

I send all of my constructive feedback to the contributors and leaders at the organization. They are easy to access and they are always ready to listen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

7)AWS cloud provided proper updates on its services and if any new services are included proper webinars are conducted and the process and serices are explained. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Cloud?

Only the thing i dislike about AWS is naming of its services its not easier to find a service related to a particular search and naming its terms .

like example suppose S3 any new fresher wont be able to identify it as a storage service and the related term bucket it should have something named related to storage.

like other services like lightsail we wont know it is severless if you are a fresher. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
