"It's very quick and easy to build or set up Amazon SQS."
"SQS is very stable, and it has lots of features."
"We use SNS as the publisher, and our procurement service subscribes to those events using SQS. In the past, we relied on time-based or batch-based processes to send data between services on-premises. With SQS, we can trigger actions based on real-time changes in business processes, improving reliability."

"The stability has been good."

"It would be easier to have a dashboard that allows us to see everything and manage everything since we have so many queues."

"There are some issues with SQS's transaction queue regarding knowing if something has been received."
"Be cautious around pay-as-you-use licensing as costs can become expensive."
"I cannot send a message to multiple people simultaneously. It can only be sent to one recipient."
"I do not think that this solution is easy to use and the documentation of this solution has a lot of problems and can be improved in the next release. Most of the time, the images in the document are from older versions."
"The product's interface needs improvement."
"It would be helpful if they could help us explain why they, as in, the customers, should use the product and the overall benefits."
"In the next release, I would like to see the GUI allow you to configure the security section."
