AWS for all your needs
I am an independent consultant. As such, I provide software solutions and consulting services to customers with different needs. AWS gives me the tools to cover much of their needs, so it is for me a key tool in the performance of my activities, specifically as application server, databases and files through IaaS go.
- Performance, Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) allows you to host your resources without worrying about high consumption peaks.
- Easy to use. The learning curve for its main functions is relatively easy and well documented.
- Price. The price is very competitive in the market.
- Variety of tools at your disposal.
- Account management. If you manage many accounts AWS, management can become somewhat disorganized, as AWS does not offer many tools for internal control.
- It has many tools at your disposal, but you may not know them all. They could see how to promote and introduce the tools that you use less to display its advantages.
- It could extend free trial accounts indefinitely in exchange for advertising or something like that. Some users complain when the free trial ends and charge them without notice.

- We are a small company. AWS has had no negative impact at all.
- AWS gives you the option to start using the service for a free account, which always starts to develop, so the investment is zero.
- Customers are very satisfied with their performance. That's a good tangible.

Cost effective web services
We are using AWS S3 and EC2 to host our customer's campaign website, public videos clips, content management system etc. S3 is really easy to setup and we don't need to put a lot of effort to maintain it; the bandwidth is virtually unlimited and it is very helpful for video download. The availability is great, so we don't need to worry about server or storage failure. Scale up the server in just a few clicks.
- S3 -> Virtually unlimited bandwidth, works well with Edge servers (CDN), super easy to setup
- E2C -> Again, easy to setup and maintain
- No datacenter in Hong Kong
- Weak in Enterprise services (SLA)

- Positive, save time, save initial hardware investment
- Azure
AWS is Good for startups or FMCG customer but for FSI customer, their relationship is weak, hard to convince our client move to AWS
Yes
Dedicated hosting and shared hosting, too much effort to operate. The cost is high, need to worry about security and bandwidth, heard to deal with datacenter operators, inflexible to scale up and scale out, network performance is slow compared to AWS, storage is limited and expensive to maintain. Frequent data center visit is required...

Price! AWS is very cost effective compare to both traditional co-location hosting and Microsoft Azure, As a digital agency we run and maintain our client's campaign website, with the subscription model it is more flexibility and financially less risk as we only need to paid for the traffic used and we can always charge back our client.
I will likely use Amazon web services, although Microsoft Azure is more mature right now, Amazon web service is still cheaper and easier to setup and operate for most of my clients. Both offer very good security but Microsoft has its edge as it has data center in Hong Kong.
No
Not sure why I need it, we had paid for the product already why we need to paid for their bugs
Yes
No, hard to content the right person
