Pros
"Compliance is the most valuable feature.""One of the standout advantages is the fine-grained control it offers in terms of permissions and privileges.""AWS Control Tower helps companies save costs.""It is incredibly user-friendly and functions seamlessly.""It aligns well with the customer's needs and it ultimately fosters a strong customer-company relationship.""It provides centralized solutions for all AWS accounts in one place, customized to meet the organization's specific needs.""The most intriguing feature is the automatic generation of user accounts. Leveraging Active Directory and global company settings, AWS Cloud Tower enables the creation of AWS user accounts based on job descriptions in Active Directory.

Cons
"The initial setup is complex.""By making APIs and organizational units more centralized, it would be simpler to pinpoint the source of issues in case of a breach and would ultimately benefit everyone involved.""The sole drawback is its restriction to enable only one Control Tower.""It could be improved by having a more intuitive graphical interface. It could also include other coding languages like PowerShell and Python, as it would be beneficial for DevOps recommendations.""The product's affordability depends on the value it brings to specific organizations.""There aren't any additional features that I feel are missing. However, it's worth noting that Control Tower seems to function as a layer utilizing standard AWS products in the background. Occasionally, the interface may appear less streamlined, with changes in layout based on the underlying products being used. While this doesn't impact functionality, having a more standardized user interface, irrespective of the background products, could enhance the user experience.""There should be more automation security tools in the Control Tower.""While using the solution recently, it broke a certain activity. So, AWS Control Tower needs to consider making the solution better."
