We are very proud of AWS Managed Services, we definitely think about it for really vital and scalable projects What we just like the most apart from AWS Managed Services is its price, it’s comparatively cheaper than alternative administration services.

What we like least concerning AWS Managed Services is that maybe at the starting as a small company the costs are a little high, as a result as a small company, it’s no budget to feed a complete infrastructure, however, I still feel that it’s still specialized prices.

What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?
My company is utilizing AWS. Cloud-native solutions are being built today, shifting from legacy API services to micro services that can be containerized and deployed in a secure container environment. It's easy to manage, orchestrate microservices into respective containers with AWS service offerings like ECS and EKS because it has its own master control plane and the various worker nodes are deployed in IT troubleshooting. Our computing, storage, networking, database management and analytics needs are all met by AWS's offerings. S3 and other AWS services are vital to our business.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
We chose AWS because the data centers are located in nondescript facilities, making it difficult for anyone to access the data, using services like ECS, EKS, and cloudwatch to monitor and track the various activities and events
What do you dislike most about this product?
To prevent tampering, we may want to log external access to servers and services.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
There have also been issues getting access to supervisors/managers, or being advised of how to access a formal complaints process that doesn't send us back to the same team we're already complaining about for lack of results, responses, or professionalism. No matter what we try to do, we've been held hostage by the same support(sic) team. Because of this, we're unable to get this looked at because they aren't resolving or working to resolve the issues. We can't even tell anyone about the problems we're having with this team because they've blocked all communication.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product

- Client Friendly Policies
