Cons
"The solution could be more simplified for new users. It could be more user-friendly.""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.""The UI could be more user-friendly.""I have utilized certain characteristics and invested effort in reading the documentation, which proved to be challenging.""The tool must provide regional control.""The product could support any network load balancer. At present, we can use only Amazon’s load balancer application.""The user interface could be improved.""The product should be more intuitive."

More Amazon CloudFront Cons →

"If you are a low-use user and not used the minimum credit, it will be lost at end of year unless you upgrade, then you are left with more bandwidth than you can ever use.""A year ago, I had to deal with SEO factors involving duplication of content."
