AWS is a nice environment, and very configurable, but the experience with MS SQL Server is not good enough. The management of resources and scale are simple, practical and intuitive (although it lack some triggers on AWS side to not scale the cost too quickly) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Dealing with MS SQL Server is a true nightmare. It's pretty at the beginning, but it doesn't scale with a better performance than free alternatives such as MariaDB, and the integration with NoSQL tools (Neo4J and MongoDB) is too bureaucratic and non intuitive. I'd just recommend SQL Server if there's too much work in transfering the environment to other DBMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some version of the Microsoft SQL Server does not have or work some of the DB features, like it, lower version of this does not have commit, stored procedure and also does not have a good debugging tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The web version of SQL Server is always good for using on a web server, offering you and your .NET developers a database server they're comfortable with at reduced licensing costs. SQL Server 2016 introduced a lot of great new features, and SQL Server 2019 offers you vast security (such as headless mode, and modern updates) to ensure your web host is protected.

Licensing has got more complex, and of course, there's always an additional fee to pay for hosting when using Microsoft vs. open source products - but the trade-off is you will find many more .NET / SQL devs than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
