What do you like best about AWS Trusted Advisor?

I like that it exercise the best practices and really drives the potential to how AWS can be exercised. I like that you can get different support plans because it works great for basic free plan as a starting point, and enterprise plan is something that not many companies would use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Trusted Advisor?

There are not many things that I don't like. Firstly, importing all bad and good things to csv should be better implemented. I can't really import it well with all services that I would need. Apart from that, I would really appreciate some setting up of CloudWatch alarms as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AWS Trusted Advisor:

Definitely headed into a right direction. I would advise to implement the following things. Firstly, a better REST API calls using AWS CLI. Sometimes, it's hard to set it all up and it seems like the Trusted Advisor Support team sometimes doesn't have all answers to that. Secondly, importing customized reports as csv would be really great. I can see that as a custom report that would be uploaded to S3 bucket. In the future, I would consider using DynomoDB to process all the reports. Thirdly, I would appreciate to have Cost Optimization set up a little better with a reference to links about pricing. Pricing in Amazon is not always the most straightforward way and having Cost optimization is surely much appreciated. However, having it more clear would be appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Trusted Advisor solving and how is that benefiting you?

To implement AWS services correctly and using top best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS Trusted Advisor?

Ease of use of the cloud platform. Easy to add new users. The system is very friendly and the interface is easy to use. The overall network overlays are easy to deploy and the cloud storage is strong. Amazon AWS maintains good updates and the security of this platform is above average. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Trusted Advisor?

Poor customer service. I was charged even on my trial subscription. The so-called customer service is very poor and slow to respond. I could not believe the low quality support from Amazon. I really expected a lot more from this company. My client was terribly disappointed with the overall customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AWS Trusted Advisor:

If the customer service does not improve, they will not be able to compete in a highly competitive field. I have experienced very slow support and delays in refunds, overcharges and poor quality CS support. The system is very strong from a technical perspective and updates keep the system current. This client desired a strong security protocol and this is very well maintained in the AWS platfom. The cloud environment provides strong storage and encryption. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS Trusted Advisor solving and how is that benefiting you?

AWS reduced our cost, increased performance, and improved security by optimizing your AWS environment. The AWS Trusted Advisor also provided real time guidance to help you provision your resources following AWS best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
