What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?
EC2 has better uptime than all its rivals and it has been in existence for so long now that even its tacky dashboard all our team is used to that everybody just gets it.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The almost infinite offerings that are being offered on the marketplace or built specifically for EC2 instance by AWS such as email (SES) makes it one of a kind.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The lower performance and higher costing compared to Google and Azure is disappointing, at least the performance needs to be at par.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
EC2 is a great product but for your specific needs you should also check out Lambda and Lightsail if they make more sense.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing

What differentiates Amazon EC2 from other similar products?
Amazon EC2 is best for the fastest Virtual machine deployment and its best part is instance template so that we don't have to create the same conditions by console again and again.i have been using this product for two year they have rally improved it UI and made it user friedly so that we can easily manage key pairs.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite aspect of this product is being able to create virtual machine in few minutes with just few clicks. And amazon ec2 can be combined with al most all services in the AWS which is the best part of this software.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I don't like how they don't provide an option to create a static IP while creation of virtual machine which make it harder to travel to other section and then reserve it.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
i would say that amazon ec2 meets all of your needs it just that they should make some few tweaks like static IP option while development of Virtual Machines
