"It improves the speed for us to access vendors."
"I like that the products are specific and objective. We can resolve a problem using a simple configuration. It's so easy to implement a solution and solve a problem using AWS solutions. AWS has a lot of specific solutions for different use cases. I think that this is the most important thing that made us consider using AWS."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the S3."
"The availability is good, you can get any service you need immediately."
"Easy to upgrade, easy to expand storage and change your EC2 types."
"Amazon for DevOps is fantastic. Amazon has fast clouds, and the process and the Dev is very good."
"I find the fast development speed and low cost to be very valuable features of Mendix. It's a smart solution for busy developers when we need to apply new changes or fixes quickly. Mendix helps to save time and meet project deadlines faster."
"We find it intuitive and easy to use."
"The most valuable features of the product are its ease of use and speed. My friend and I find it helpful as a team of just two developers."
"Suite allows you to easily and smoothly integrate with pretty much anything. It is also cloud-enabled. It provides a full Cloud Foundry-driven cloud environment with one-click deployment."
"We also use Mendix Enterprise Integration for complex business logic. It's a low-code platform, so we run Mendix in the Mendix Cloud."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It is a development platform which assists in accelerating your developmental lifecycle. This is one of its most valuable features. This solution also offers a good set of components that are readily available."
"I think that the workflow and automation features are quite good."
"Amazon AWS should integrate AI capabilities."
"Integration with in-house applications could be simplified."
"The billing should be more competitive."
"We would like to see if AWS includes any inbuilt automation. Also, we are very interested in AWS's AI/ML features, as well as IoT, AR, and VR."
"Some extensions are better than others."
"The overall convenience and the ease to use could be improved."
"Amazon needs to develop better tools for troubleshooting network traffic, application insights, performance, and even some aspects of integration mapping. I'm hoping AWS implements something like Azure's Network Watcher and a log analytics solution where a can pull logs from various services and present them in a single dashboard. I want to summarize the performance and usage of every service and application."
"Configuration could be simplified."
"There needs to be an increase in the number of the UI components."
"I would like to see more documentation as well as how-to documents."
"Overall, integration with the enterprise ecosystem needs improvement."
"One area for improvement is its integration capabilities. Creating a pluggable widget or integrating it with other systems is challenging. In terms of features, it would be great to see advancements such as AI services and the integration of third-party services. Additionally, connecting external devices to the application requires multiple steps. Improving this will make it easier for the developers."
"You need experienced programmers and developers to understand this solution."
"It needs to provide an overview of model versioning control for the sake of the review process; better SCRUM board; an overview of model changes from the repository through Sprintr (SCRUM board). Also, a choice between versioning control system would be nice."
"There should be more integration with engineering applications and tighter integration for user authentication, such as single sign-on, etc. They have some of that. It just could be stronger."
"I would also like to see automatic adjustment to the Java Heap, whenever an application load becomes too much for the application. It could also use hot database replication."
