Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, IBM, Amazon and others in Message Queue (MQ) Software."The initial Amazon MQ setup is very easy both when you do it on your own or use the self-managed instance."
"There is no setup just some easy configuration required."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon SQS is the interface."
"The libraries that connect and manage the queues are rich in features."

"I am able to find out what's going on very easily."
"Amazon MQ is a good solution for small and medium-sized enterprises. It's open-source software, which means it's cheaper than its competitors."
"As a company that uses IBM solutions, it's difficult to compare Amazon SQS to other solutions. We have been using IBM solutions for a long time and they are very mature in integration and queuing. In my role as an integration manager, I can say that Amazon SQS is designed primarily for use within the Amazon ecosystem and does not have the same level of functionality as IBM MQ or other similar products. It has limited connectivity options and does not easily integrate with legacy systems."
"The initial setup of Amazon SQS is in the middle range of difficulty. You need to learn Amazon AWS and know how to navigate, create resources, and structures, and provide rules."
"It would be easier to have a dashboard that allows us to see everything and manage everything since we have so many queues."
"The solution is not available on-premises so that rules out any customers looking for the messaging solution on-premises."
"Be cautious around pay-as-you-use licensing as costs can become expensive."
