Pros
"AWS Control Tower helps companies save costs.""It provides a central point for account management, access control, and compliance monitoring.""It aligns well with the customer's needs and it ultimately fosters a strong customer-company relationship.""The solution's initial setup was easy for me.""Security is the most valuable feature of Control Tower.""The most significant benefit of Control Tower is its capability to align with our organization's standards.""It provides centralized solutions for all AWS accounts in one place, customized to meet the organization's specific needs.""The most intriguing feature is the automatic generation of user accounts. Leveraging Active Directory and global company settings, AWS Cloud Tower enables the creation of AWS user accounts based on job descriptions in Active Directory. This establishes a direct correlation between the user's name, job definition, and the corresponding rules applied to each account."

Cons
"The tool's setup is very technical. Its pricing can be cheaper.""It is essential to clarify that this isn't necessarily a drawback of the service, but having a clear and concise set of predefined guidelines from AWS for moving existing accounts under AWS Control Tower would be highly beneficial as it would simplify the process and make it more user-friendly.""It could be improved by having a more intuitive graphical interface. It could also include other coding languages like PowerShell and Python, as it would be beneficial for DevOps recommendations.""There should be more automation security tools in the Control Tower.""By making APIs and organizational units more centralized, it would be simpler to pinpoint the source of issues in case of a breach and would ultimately benefit everyone involved.""The process of closing an AWS account using Control Tower needs improvements to simplify it, especially when managing multiple accounts.""While using the solution recently, it broke a certain activity. So, AWS Control Tower needs to consider making the solution better.""There aren't any additional features that I feel are missing. However, it's worth noting that Control Tower seems to function as a layer utilizing standard AWS products in the background. Occasionally, the interface may appear less streamlined, with changes in layout based on the underlying products being used. While this doesn't impact functionality, having a more standardized user interface, irrespective of the background products, could enhance the user experience."
