The cost can be a little difficult as there is no plan between the Launch and Pro. I would love to see a middle tier plan as the gap there is a little too large. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area where Iron.io could enhance its offering is in providing more comprehensive documentation and tutorials.

I love that IronWorker supports PHP. natively. Also, the scheduler is a great feature. Makes it easy to run PHP functions in the cloud without having to provision servers or containers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no way to edit code in the dashboard. To update the code, even for a minor change, requires upload of the entire solution. This is generally not a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if there was a plan between Launch and Professional. That is a large gap, but one you have no choice to take if you need the extra horsepower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We used Iron.io as a one stop shop to help us get onto the cloud and tune our services to get cloud efficiencies. It was overwhelming looking at the many disparate services that need to have the dots connected to get underway with the cloud, so giving this problem to Iron made things much easier as we had a single touch point. Iron's Worker is a complex tool and is hard to understand how to engage it effectively in your architecture - it essentially changes your serial processing pipeline and multiplies them to enable parallel processing - effectively unblocking bottlenecks and seeing less cloud compute needed to get results in a certain time frame. The result has been a drastic reduction in the AWS spend we have been getting, as we are finally optimized to take advantage of the elasticity that cloud computing offers.

Iron.io's offerings are hard to understand from the outset, and they can probably make their language more accessible. Implementing their tools I feel would be a challenge without their help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The queues are a very clear way to see where the processes are Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Logs are not easily accessible, so it's hard to find a problem when something is not working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- I improved my CSV breakdown work drastically by putting 10 Iron Workers on the job. Up to that point, I was just using larger AWS instances... But the concept of actually running 'concurrent' jobs at the same time (through using workers that spin up on elastic cloud computing) was lost on me.
- The UI is very intuitive and gives really good detail about the time each job takes.
- I can run my Workers and then have them put the finished product on a message queue - which means my whole ETL process is done without any hassle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Iron's message queue did used to have downtime - but they have released a new MQ v 4 built on RUST that has been really great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
