We performed a comparison between Amazon AWS, Cloud Foundry, and Google App Engine based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in PaaS Clouds."I like many features, like the recently released useful analytics features. There are many from the data analytics or database side."
"The solution scales very nicely."
"AWS is easier to implement than other solutions, and it's more reliable."
"Great scalability."
"It's easy to manage. We can use a wide range of technologies with AWS."
"Amazon AWS has improved a lot on security and is very good. Additionally, You can integrate your own security into their AWS platform."
"Almost everything is good. It is a whole ecosystem. It is not only the storage, computing, or networking. It is interesting in the way all things are combined to form this ecosystem. It is a very well-built and logical ecosystem that has some small building blocks. These building blocks can be used in the right way to build a much bigger ecosystem that is robust, secure, scalable."
"The technical support is good."
"My favorite component of IBM's solution is Node-RED, which greatly shortens the amount of time required to develop, test, and deploy new applications."
"Cloud Foundry builds the runtime environment directly without requiring dependency management from the user."
"IBM is the only vendor to offer integration with blockchain for smart contract development."
"The WhatApp feature is the most valuable."
"The product's setup and deployment phases are easy."
"I've found that all of the features are valuable, especially the shared drive and the ability for multiple people to use their documents at the same time."
"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."
"Google App Engine's most valuable feature is self-management. You do not have to manage the infrastructure underneath where all the functions are happening, such as load balancing deployment and version management, they are managed by the system itself."
"The initial setup is okay. It's not too complex. Deployment took about one day."
"Its ability to integrate with most devices helps users who have different or old devices."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"AWS support could be better."
"The dashboard can be improved a little bit to provide more information."
"It's sometimes a challenge to manage billing on this platform. It takes a lot of labor to generate billing for our customers from the service on the cloud."
"There's a huge cost for support."
"As a result of the competency, I believe that most people are now leaning toward Azure rather than AWS."
"Setup is somewhat complex."
"In terms of additional features we'd like to see, the one thing that comes to mind is better integration with Oracle. We have a lot of Oracle databases, and there is no other option to either migrate to PaaS, stay on-prem, or use Oracle Private Cloud."
"After the initial excitement period with Node-RED is over, you crave the need of additional integrations to third-party services."
"In IBM Cloud, the product has been deprecated in favor of Kubernetes, which is a more complicated infrastructure to manage."
"The documentation and community are lacking for this product."
"The support for the Indian region is not as good as compared to the support that is offered to the regions in Europe."
"Data consumption of the device could be improved."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"The only concern is that there is a number of the offerings which are built on their own proprietary technologies. With some of the offerings in Google Cloud, it's difficult to have a path to migrate to other cloud providers."
"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."
"Difficult to assess how pricing is managed."
