IAM is easy to use and powerful. The User and Group model is the most familiarr, But the Role model is the most powerful (Assume Role). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

IAM are so helpful in driving your application and managing access, it becomes so easy to keep a track of users and their restrictions. what I love the most about IAM is:

1. You can give the expiry date to a user. This automates the procedure of deleting the user. and I think it's awesome.

2. The programmatic and secret based access is the amazing feature we get from AWS. and that makes AWS cli being used on wider level.

3. IAM customised policies are another big advantages of using IAM , You can give access to one service and still restrict to access other parameter of the same service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

IAM are so helpful and amazing but here are some things I dislike about it is.

1. While setting up a MFA for a programmatic access on AWS cli, the procedure is so tedious and is very unnecessarily complicated.

2. Moreover the MFA will expire in one day and we automate some things because of this using AWS cli. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the level of control this gives me to my products in AWS. Giving me control to be as secure or open as I like. One of the best services out there and the fact you set it all up yourself means you know you are secure. Unlike other providers you just have to trust. they have great guides and support to help you and advice on the best configurations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can be repetitive to setup for each product but worth it as you know it is done correctly. I would not change this as I think it work great and once you learn the first time it take no time at all to set up multiple times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
