Unified security management ensures comprehensive compliance for account safety
Control Tower offers many valuable features for managing all account security. I can manage user security and user IAM, firewall, and other security-related tasks via Control Tower. The unified security management is a crucial aspect, and whenever an AWS organization is used, Control Tower is typically included to ensure comprehensive compliance fulfillment.

Great topic subscription monitoring, helpful management, and useful for audits
Addition of more monitoring features to Azure Cosmos DB can be a huge help as we use the same as the main database for our applications. One more thing to note is that their support team was always ready to clear all our doubts regarding the product but we feel that it would be much appreciated if they could share with us the required resources to get new customers like us well-versed in traversing through different modules of the product. These are the very few areas where Serverless360 can be improved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"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."
"With Control Tower, there are ready-to-use automated templates available, simplifying the implementation of a centralized management solution."
"It provides centralized solutions for all AWS accounts in one place, customized to meet the organization's specific needs."
"AWS Control Tower helps companies save costs."
"Security is the most valuable feature of Control Tower."
"Compliance is the most valuable feature."
"It offers automated recommendations for security and policies, creating a landing zone and providing a list of policies."
"It offers all the core capabilities we need to manage and monitor our Azure services."
"Service Bus topic subscription monitoring turned out to be the most useful for us."
 

Cons

"There should be more automation security tools in the Control Tower."
"The initial setup is complex."
"The solution's stability could be improved."
"It would be beneficial if AWS offered the capability to seamlessly deploy your infrastructure to another region to ensure continuous availability and redundancy."
"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."
"While using the solution recently, it broke a certain activity. So, AWS Control Tower needs to consider making the solution better."
"The process of closing an AWS account using Control Tower needs improvements to simplify it, especially when managing multiple accounts."
"AWS should provide more resources, examples, and tutorials."
"Addition of more monitoring features to Azure Cosmos DB can be a huge help as we use the same as the main database for our applications."
"The user interface of Serveress360 could be improved a bit to make the platform even easier to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is efficient, not overly expensive but also not very cheap."
"It operates on a pay-as-you-go model, meaning we are charged only for the services we actively use within it."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing an eight."
"The solution is free."
"The cost is reasonable, but there are opportunities for improvement in terms of pricing for larger enterprises."
"The pricing structure is closely intertwined with the specifics of your environment and the billing strategy you employ."
"The pay-as-you-go model ensures you're only charged for what you use, which offers great flexibility for different types of companies."
"I believe it's free of charge or comes at a very low cost. It's an additional feature. Even if there is a fee, it's minimal. AWS seems to assist customers in gaining a comprehensive view of their security setups within AWS. Using Control Tower is highly recommended, especially as your company grows and involves Active Directory, various departments, and different architectural aspects. It becomes more advisable to leverage Control Tower rather than managing these aspects manually, especially for larger organizations."
