We performed a comparison between AWS Amplify and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Release Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The link with Figma is very nice. You can create your design in Figma, and then you can import it into AWS Amplify and use it. You can link it to your data source and data bindings."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Amplify is authentication."
"Typically, whenever we make changes and need to switch environments (e.g., dev to production), it's easy for our developers to maintain the state of each environment and make customizations as needed. They don't necessarily need to involve the cloud team for basic management."
"We can manage all the configuration consistency between all our servers."
"I like the inventory management. It's a very nice, simple, concise way to keep all that data together. And the API allows us to use it even for things that are not Ansible."
"It's nice to have the Dashboard where people can see it, have it report to our ELK stack. It's far more convenient, and we can trigger it with API and schedules, which is better than doing it with a whole bunch of scripts."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that we don’t need an agent for it to work."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution is capable of integrating with many applications and devices in comparison to BigFix."
"It enabled me to take the old build manifest and automated everything. So when it came time to spin everything up, it was quick and simple. I could spin it up and test it out. And then, when it came time to roll production, it was a done deal. When we expanded to multiple data centers, it was same thing: Change a few IP addresses, change some names, and off we went."
"We can automate a few host configurations using the product."
"Its capability to handle big projects needs to be improved. If you generate a user interface in Figma and import everything where all components are in one directory, currently, it is complicated. It isn't able to cope with that. For small projects, it is not an issue, but if you have big projects and you want to use AWS Amplify, then it gets more difficult. That is the most important point for me. It should be improved to cope better with bigger projects."
"AWS Amplify could improve in the deployment. It would be beneficial to have more methods, such as automation."
"AWS can implement multiple web applications, and cross-platform applications, like iOS."
"The governance features could be improved."
"It can use some more credential types. I've found that when I go looking for a certain credential type, such as private keys, they're not really there."
"There needs to be improvement in the orchestration."
"The job workflow needs to be worked on. It's not really clear to how you actually link things together. What they probably could do is provide an example workflow on how to stitch things together. I think that would be very helpful."
"Performance has been an issue on larger environments, but it has gotten a lot better over the past two years."
"The solution must be made easier to configure."
"The scalability of the solution has some shortcomings."
"There are some options not available in the community edition of the solution."
