Amazon CloudFront Reviews

We use Amazon CloudFront as a monitoring tool. It helps us receive notifications and alerts for any issues or experiences within AWS. Amazon CloudFront and CloudWatch allow us to monitor production servers and detect issues. Additionally, the tool's global access capabilities ensure users worldwide can access content without failure. 

The tool is highly available and reliable. It helps to access server applications easily. Integrating Amazon CloudFront with other AWS services was very easy, I would rate it eight out of ten.

Amazon CloudFront is harder to understand compared to Azure. 

I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten. It ensures the site is available globally without latency for 24 hours.

The technical support team from AWS is excellent. They provide very good support and are responsive to any issues we encounter on their cloud platform. If we face any problems, we can easily raise a ticket with the AWS team, and they assign an engineer to help resolve the issue. Overall, there are no issues with their support. Configuration issues can arise within our local technical team, which manages our cloud platform services for customers. In such cases, the AWS platform provides a reliable solution, ensuring a hundred percent resolution.

Positive

I used to work with AWS and Azure, and we provided cost comparisons for customers to help them choose the right services. Azure tends to be more user-friendly and easier to understand, while AWS may take more time.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten. 

Our developers developed something that needed cloud services and deployed it on the Amazon CloudFront server.

Amazon CloudFront is a stable solution.

Amazon CloudFront's pricing is a bit high, and we would appreciate it if they reduced it.

Amazon CloudFront's setup is a bit difficult, and we would love it if they made it easier.

I have been using Amazon CloudFront for the last six months.

Amazon CloudFront is a scalable solution. Four or five people are using Amazon CloudFront in our company.

Amazon CloudFront's initial setup is difficult, and it takes a lot of time to set it up.

Amazon CloudFront is an expensive solution.

I would recommend Amazon CloudFront to other users.

Overall, I rate Amazon CloudFront a seven out of ten.

The solution has many features that are comprehensive.

I have utilized certain characteristics and invested effort in reading the documentation, which proved to be challenging.

I have used Amazon CloudFront within the last 12 months.

The implementation was a bit difficult due to the documentation used. It would be beneficial to have a categorization in the documentation that aids understanding based on user expertise levels, such as beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Such a division would greatly assist startups like ours.

I rate Amazon CloudFront a seven out of ten.

We use it for media content delivery to different geographical locations. We have its latest version.

It is stable.

Its price is really high and can be improved. From the technology perspective, they should have some multi-platform integration. When you are configuring something on top of it, it is geoblocking. There are some limitations for the IP addresses, which other solutions don't have.

They should have more Edge locations so that CloudFront can be used much more. If they can make it a little bit cheaper and better than other networks, we will be able to use it more. 

They don't have a lot of PoPs in Asia-Pacific. That's one of the reasons why there is some latency. They can reduce this latency by adding multiple PoPs. If we are concentrating on markets, such as Vietnam, the Philippines, where we don't have PoPs, we have to ride on other providers.

We started to use it six months ago.

It is stable.

It is scalable.

I've never interacted with them. Normally, with the help of the documentation, you can manage it on your own.

It took about half an hour to install it. Its installation is not a big thing, but setting up rules and everything else takes a few hours. 

We are a consultancy company. We used to do the installation, and we also used to have a consultancy with other companies. 

For its deployment and maintenance, three to four guys are required. One architect is there, and then there is one manager and two engineers.

Its price is really on the high side. It should be cheaper in general.

I would definitely recommend this product. We like Amazon products. 

I would rate Amazon CloudFront a nine out of 10.

We use Amazon CloudFront to host web services. It helps us protect websites and provides an easy deployment for AWS WAF.

The product’s most valuable feature is the availability of the websites.

The product could support any network load balancer. At present, we can use only Amazon’s load balancer application. It will help us manage hosting multiple web services or websites easily.

We have been using Amazon CloudFront for two to three years. At present, we use the latest version.

We have 30 to 40 admins executing using Amazon CloudFront in our organization. We plan to increase the usage as we migrate from a third-party WAF to AWS WAF.

The technical support services are good.

Positive

We migrated from EC2 as an individual website towards Amazon CloudFront. The migration was straightforward as it is available in AWS itself. It took around two weeks for 150 websites. We had a team of 50-60 executives to work on the deployment.

Amazon CloudFront costs less than third-party services. Going for third-party vendors may cost more, require some skills, and take time to integrate.

I rate Amazon CloudFront a seven out of ten.
