"Initial setup is straightforward. It only takes 15 minutes to deploy."
"The product helps us to configure the new environment."
"We do not have to do a lot of administration, such as create virtual machines, or worry about our controllers or nodes going down because the solution is fully managed by Amazon."
"I can use the autoscaling feature to manage and scale up infrastructure."
"Break down your application into small modules to improve resiliency"
"The solution is easy-to-set up."
"When used in conjunction with Kubernetes, it is seamless because it integrates very well."
"The solution is easy to install."
"The most valuable feature is that it is cost-saving."

"It could be easier to create images and save them on reports. Just improved development workflow, just quicker, like some better user experience creating the images for the Docker containers."
"The product does not have an extensive documentation. The tool does not have good scenarios. We have to go through the GitHub repository and investigate similar scenarios. Also, if you are copying multiple things, then you can jeopardize the copy number. The copying aspect also lacks a UI part. We also need to limit the memory."
"The solution could improve with a GUI instead of only a command line interface. Having to use the command line interface can be a hassle."
