We performed a comparison between Amazon EventBridge and Amazon SNS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Oriented Middleware (MOM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best feature is that it allows you to perform recurring tasks efficiently."
"It has self-explanatory documentation and works with most projects."
"Amazon EventBridge is very flexible."
"It's very simple to set up our cron with Amazon EventBridge."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon SNS is speed. It's really fast."
"It's a simple communication service that allows us to communicate with customers."
"Stability has been good for us. It is quite high."
"The mobile push notifications are the most valuable. Previously, we used to use Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for this functionality. It is a Google service for sending push notifications. Android did not have a good service for sending push notifications, but now, Amazon SNS integrates with FCM. Under the road, it is actually using FCM, but we can see all the metrics on our AW service itself, which makes it a lot easier instead of using a third-party service for this particular functionality."
"We have found the key feature of this solution to be the simplicity of sending out notifications."
"Messages easily flow from publisher or application to subscriber."
"The initial setup of Amazon SNS was easy."
"The best aspect of this solution is its simplicity. We just have to create topics and can have as many subscriptions as we want under any topic we create."
"It would be good if the solution provided a feature to add multiple Cron expressions in one rule."
"Amazon EventBridge doesn't have the feature of event replay."
"It would be easy if we had an option to select multiple things to run the script from Monday to Friday."
"Currently, it only supports triggering one job at a time. It would be helpful if it could handle multiple jobs or triggers simultaneously. What I mean is that currently, we can only perform one job at a time."
"The tool needs to have direct integration with AvPro."
"There could be more integration with other solutions."
"Messages should flow through a gateway without the need for a mediator."
"A major issue with AWS as a whole is that it has a lot of services that do the same thing, and people get confused about which one to use in which scenario. Previously, we used to use SNS for connecting microservices. SNS has around six types of subscribers. We can subscribe to Lambda, HTTP, HTTPS, SMS, email, and push notifications. We used to use HTTP endpoints and Lambda for connecting to microservice systems. Now we have something called EventBridge, which actually does that for you. For connecting to services, we should just use EventBridge rather than SQS, SNS. I hear a lot of complaints from people wherein they do not understand when to use EventBridge and when to use SQS, SNS. They can remove these features so that it doesn't confuse users about when to use SQS, SNS, or EventBridge."
"I expect Amazon SNS to provide some capabilities to allow the configuration process to be done in a single script."
"I recently worked with Firebase, and it provides an option to create a marketing campaign with a title and a specific image to inform our audience about something. We just design the campaign and then use the push notifications. It would be good if Amazon also adds a similar feature."
"In terms of improvement, I would like to have better customer support for SNS. We can then manage it very easily."
"We would like the integration with third party applications to be improved within this solution."
