Amazon S3 Reviews

Currently, I am a cloud solution architect. I consult with developers and set up the architecture needed to deploy a solution. If a solution needs to be deployed within AWS, we sit down with the client and discuss the services that are most appropriate for that solution and design the architecture, which is given to the review board for approval. The AWS services we consume are dependent on the solution. Users from various departments will use the solution, depending on what's being deployed there. 

We have cold storage here, and I think that's useful. When it comes to commercialization, it's cheaper to put data that you won't be using into the data storage. You only use a little bit of the data needed each day for your transition, so you pay less. 

There could be more flexibility in configuration to allow more ways to connect to outside the PPC.

I started using S3 at my previous company, so I have been using it for five years. 

S3 is very stable.

Amazon S3 is highly scalable.

I rate AWS support 10 out of 10. 

Positive

Setting up S3 is straightforward.  At first, it was difficult because I didn't know how to use the solution. Now it takes less than five minutes to deploy S3. 

A solution architect needs to create a plan for what needs to be deployed, and the developer will deploy the solution. Most of the engagement happens before the deployment when the architect and the developer come to an agreement about the approach. One person procures the services, and others will test them and put them into the live environment.

We deployed the solution with the help of a consultant, who helped us implement some of the heavier stuff in the data lake. However, we did the basic stuff in-house because we've got the VPC to do it ourselves. 

The licensing cost is not bad. However, you need an understanding of the solution you're deploying and the services running. You will save money by shutting down some of the services when they're not in use.

I rate Amazon S3 nine out of 10. It's an excellent product. I'm also working with it for my personal use. I'm putting my documents and pictures into the S3 bucket.

It is mainly for transferring the files we are using from AWS, where we have to transfer the files from AWS to a non-cloud environment.

The security is the most useful aspect of the product.

We've had no issues with stability.

It can scale well. 

You do need to get training on the setup process. It's not straightforward. 

I've been using the solution for four years now 

The solution is stable and reliable. the performance has been good. It's been problem-free. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

It can scale well.

We have about 70 people using the product currently.

We do not have plans to increase usage. 

I don't know much about technical support. I don't deal with that aspect. We have a separate team that handles any issues. 

The initial setup isn't easy. We require training to get up to speed. 

I'm not the person that actually handled the deployment.

I don't have any insights into the exact price of the solution. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. We've been pretty happy with its capabilities in general. 

It is not for everybody. Potential users can also evaluate Azure as well as AWS, as both are equally good. If you really need a cloud solution, then obviously there are many in the market. The cost is a top pain factor nowadays.

We use it for static website hosting, storing data, and second data of some of the websites. We can then easily sync the data whenever we have the need to do so.

Some of our websites are 2 or 4 pages and have static content. We can simply host it by creating a bucket, putting the content of the website there, and making it available to the public with the Make Public feature.

Amazon S3 has multiple types of data detection. You can store data on a monthly basis, yearly basis, and long term basis. You can choose the Glacier feature, create a life cycle policy, and store it. This is one of the best features this solution has.

It is stable and scalable, and the installation is very straightforward as well.

The only pain point is migrating the life cycle policy because if someone is a newbie, they cannot easily create the life cycle policy. This is because there are multiple, additional ways. If I want to store data for one month, they have the option to Glacier over it. With Glacier, you have addition policies for one year or four years. The option will not be there. So you would need to use a UI process over it.

I've been using it for almost the last four years.

I think the stability of Amazon S3 is good.

It is scalable. We currently have 40 plus users.

Amazon Protect Support has been been quite responsive.

The initial setup was completely straightforward.

The licensing is pay as you go, and I'm happy with the pricing.

We didn't evaluate other options because there's no such available feature in the market at present that can compare all the things in a bucket, like S3.

If you are a small scale enterprise that wants to host websites or data, you should go for it and use Amazon S3. 

I would rate Amazon S3 at nine on a scale from one to ten.

We use Amazon S3 to store data.

Amazon S3 is a storage bucket service with good stability.

The solution's data transfer speed could be improved.

I have been using Amazon S3 for more than three years.

Amazon S3 is an easy-to-scale solution.

Amazon S3 is a cheap solution.

I am using the latest version of Amazon S3. Amazon S3 is a reliable and secure storage bucket service that stores data.

Overall, I rate Amazon S3 a nine out of ten.

We are using Amazon services to create the SSX and other services.

Cloud infrastructure is the most valuable feature.

We are already utilizing cloud services, and Amazon is providing us with an abundance of options. As we move forward, we must ensure that we are obtaining the best value for our money when it comes to pricing. The price of Amazon S3 has room for improvement.

The current solution is not ideal, as it requires us to log into multiple dashboards and technical services. To improve our centralized monitoring or central idea, we need to create a single centralized system that can provide access to all services.

The stability of the solution has room for improvement.

I have been using the solution for three years.

I give the stability a seven out of ten.

I give the scalability an eight out of ten.

We have 50 people using the solution.

The technical support team is good.

Most businesses have different needs, so the solutions we use vary depending on the context and requirements. We can utilize different approaches based on specific circumstances. The initial setup depends on the environment.

I give the solution a nine out of ten.

I believe that cloud-based services such as cloud computing and cloud security from Amazon's pipeline services are becoming increasingly popular. These services provide a great technological infrastructure for us and I have no doubts or reservations about them.

We primarily use the solution for file storage. 

It's a very good solution that makes it easy to save. 

It is easy to set up, and it's cheap. We have to pay as long as it's used, however, it's not so expensive. 

The product can scale.

It's reliable and stable.

My company is in several regions with some offices in the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. Sometimes we have to concentrate networks to a certain location, like the EU, for example. Therefore, if we set S3 in the EU region from the Middle East or Africa, the latency is an issue and we find it hard to connect to that S3. If we could have a much faster connection, it would be better.

While the price is pretty cheap, it could always be less costly.

I've been using the solution for about three or four years. 

It's very stable and reliable. I'd rate stability almost ten out of ten. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

We have a team of ten on the solution right now. We may increase usage in the future. 

It's a scalable solution. I'd rate it eight out of ten in terms of the ability to expand. 

I've never used support. I'm not in a position to ask for AMazon support. Therefore, I cannot speak to their level of service.

We were only on-premises previously. We've never used a different cloud solution. 

This is a very simple product to set up. It's not overly difficult. The process is quite clear and straightforward. 

The deployment times vary from project to project. Sometimes, you can deploy everything in a day. Sometimes it takes a week. Checking sessions usually take some time. 

We have witnessed an ROI while using the solution. 

The pricing is very reasonable. We do not find it expensive at all. 

We pay a monthly licensing fee.

I'd rate the pricing five out of ten.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. I'd recommend it to other companies or users. 

We are using Amazon S3  for short-term or long-term storage.

The most valuable features of the Amazon S3 are its ease of use and integration

Amazon S3 could improve the limitation on how much data can be stored.

I have been using Amazon S3 for approximately two years.

Amazon S3 is stable.

The scalability of Amazon S3 is good.

Our company uses Amazon S3 as the main target backup solution.

I did not use the support from Amazon S3 because we never faced any challenges.

I have used other similar solutions to Amazon S3, but they are not comparable.

The initial setup of Amazon S3 is straightforward, the process took a few minutes.

We did the implementation of Amazon S3 in-house. We used one engineer for the deployment and maintenance of the solution.

I have seen a return on investment. The cost is based on a consumption-based model, you only pay for your usage.

The price of Amazon S3 depends on various variables. However, the price overall is fair.

I rate Amazon S3 a nine out of ten.

I am using Amazon S3 for storing all the organization data, which comes from a data pipeline.

The most valuable features of Amazon S3 are the accuracy and the life cycle policies, which helps when moving from Amazon S3 to Amazon Glacier.

Amazon S3 could improve some of the features, such as indexing, or we should have more information about all the data stored in a single place. This way we can see what data resides where instead of going in different buckets, file locations manually, or searching. An index would be nice, allowing us to directly go to a location to use the date.

I have used Amazon S3 within the last 12 months.

Amazon S3 is 99.99 percent stable. The solution is highly stable.

The scalability of Amazon S3 is good. If we want more storage we only need to pay extra.

All the workloads of the whole company go to Amazon S3. As our workloads increase, the data increases, and we will use more storage in Amazon S3.

I have not used the support from Amazon S3.

Positive

I have not used another solution similar to Amazon S3.

The initial setup of Amazon S3 is not complex. We are only using it for a storage layer and there were not any complexities.

The cost of Amazon S3 is good. The pricing model is based on the usage of the solution.

I would recommend this solution to others, it is one of the most used storage solutions.

I rate Amazon S3 a nine out of ten.
