"The support is very good. I would rate the technical support as a nine out of ten."
"We like the fact that it's got such great redundancy."
"I like the manageability. Activate Connect makes it easier to assign information and to manage the resources in the network."
"Two-step authentication is very useful and important."
"AWS has eliminated the downtime we waste when our on-premises resources go down."
"We can provide specific access to people based on what they need from our accounts."

"Our only complaint is that you cannot integrate your Exchange server. Or, if you are planning to install an Exchange server on your Amazon EC2 instance, then you need to configure Active Directory on EC2 instance. We would like for this limitation to be lifted."
"The solution lacks certain features."
"Some of the security protocols are difficult to understand."
"Can be improved by including on-premises access for services through Identity Access Management."
"The group policy can be improved."
"I would like to see better integration with other business solutions."
"AWS could improve the number of regions. Azure has passed them. The ned more consistency, as far as the Northeast is concerned."

"Integration with other Tools4ever applications such as SSRPM and IAM would be nice."
"I would like to have the built-in provisioning module improved."
"Sometimes it generates a username that is not unique, but at the time of this writing, it is not possible to generate a new one that is unique."
