Cons
"The solution's pricing could be cheaper. It is cheaper than Airflow.""Setup took about one day. We had some errors to understand in the beginning, but now everything is working good.""I would like to see more data transformation features in Amazon Step Functions like additional operators and logic.""It is hard to coordinate the declaratory language.""The price and support are areas with shortcomings where the solution needs to improve.""The interface can sometimes feel limited, as we're unable to see what AWS is running behind the scenes.""The solution's data size limit can be improved.""It wasn't easy to understand the licensing model. It's like if you use just a little, it's cheap, but it becomes more expensive as you use more. It's like a hook that ties you inside the Amazon ecosystem. So, it creates a dependency."

More AWS Step Functions Cons →

"You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes.""Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs.""Looping through complex data structures can be difficult.""Sometimes additional connectors are needed.""Its API management capabilities need improvement.""I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security.""In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations.""I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot."

    Overview

    AWS Step Functions lets you coordinate multiple AWS services into serverless workflows so you can build and update apps quickly. Using Step Functions, you can design and run workflows that stitch together services such as AWS Lambda and Amazon ECS into feature-rich applications. Workflows are made up of a series of steps, with the output of one step acting as input into the next. Application development is simpler and more intuitive using Step Functions, because it translates your workflow into a state machine diagram that is easy to understand, easy to explain to others, and easy to change. You can monitor each step of execution as it happens, which means you can identify and fix problems quickly. Step Functions automatically triggers and tracks each step, and retries when there are errors, so your application executes in order and as expected.

    Open source integration platform designed to handle the most complex integration challenges between legacy, enterprise and On-Demand applications.
