I can tell you why I use AWS over other cloud providers:

  • Support and exhaustive documentation
  • More services than any other cloud provider
  • More services that seamlessly integrate
  • The most mature cloud provider
  • Constantly improving with new features weekly

and I can tell you what I don't like about AWS:

  • Some services are rushed out the door.
  • So many services that some are neglected.
  • The GUI is either ugly or now being "refreshed" to put design over function
  • Worrying about being overbilled due to misconfiguration or misunderstanding
