"I like that it's easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Amazon AWS are ease of use, deployment, and short lead time. If you are using an on-premise solution, you need to wait for the hardware, and nowadays it is very difficult, the lead time becomes very long. We propose to our customers to use Amazon AWS because it is very easy, no need to wait for hardware delivery."
"The ease of use is the biggest benefit."
"Stable platform with a straightforward setup. It's user-friendly, with more reliable servers compared to the competition."

"It is simple to use. It is much simpler than AWS. It is also very powerful."
"Administering App Engine is simple; it has intuitive UIs and a very scalable app engine."

"The product's setup and deployment phases are easy."
"Its ability to integrate with most devices helps users who have different or old devices."
"Seurity features - unauthorized individuals are unable to access certain applications."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that there is good documentation explaining the implementation part of it."
"In terms of improvement, they should try to give more emphasis to the VoIP system."
"The overall convenience and the ease to use could be improved."
"Instead of using some third-party solutions, Amazon should include them as part of its offering."
"The customization could improve. However, it depends on the customization needed."
"More complete and specific training for many of the technologies, specifically with Python Django and the CMS (Mezzanine)."
"The price could be better."
"AWS for API, or Seller Central, is no improvement from what we had (our internal tools we designed to update accounts, change customer network profiles, monitoring, MRTG graphs, etc), when AWS should be blazing."
"Their support can be improved. In some cases, their support is not as proficient as it can be. They should be quicker at getting back."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops. It is a bit complicated at the moment. We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops."
"I think there's still a lot that can be done with Google Meet and the video conferencing part of it. It could be more dynamic in terms of what can be done with it."
"Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine."
"I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five."
"Data consumption of the device could be improved."
