What differentiates AWS Systems Manager from other similar products?

Through AWS System manager, we have been able to copy processes as part of the normal update process and it is very easy to copy the files and doesn't even require SSH access to the instances.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Coupled with the RunCommand to send common commands to multiple servers I have reduced hours of work to minutes.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can be hard to debug issues at times.

I highly recommend it. You do not have to go into each instance and deploy the configuration file. With one click you set up all instances.
