You don't need to use Amazon WorkSpaces if you have a good-functioning laptop. Since the solution connects to another computer through your laptop, it won't be as fast as yours. Amazon WorkSpaces provides the facility to encrypt your laptop or hard disk for security reasons. It is easier to enable encryption on a recent laptop like Windows or Mac than on an older laptop that uses older versions of the OS and the hard drive. Amazon WorkSpace provides a convenient option to enable encryption, where you have to check a tick mark when creating it. Overall, I rate Amazon WorkSpaces an eight out of ten.
I would suggest you use it. It has been a valuable tool for me. Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. While it's a scalable product, it's not fully comprehensive in terms of functionality.
I advise others to understand their business use cases before opting for the solution. If you are running heavy software, purchase a heavier workspace. I rate the solution a six out of ten.
To the others who are looking into using Amazon WorkSpaces, I would ask them to continue using it if they are already its users. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.
For anyone looking at the solution, I can say that it is a good solution and within well-defined price ranges, and a very scalable one. People should try this one. It's just a very good thing; we use it, and we see the value that we are having. The best thing is the integration is very easy. I would rate the solution an 8.5 out of ten, because I haven't worked with the support team and because of the VPN issues.

If they have custom development or anything custom, they should probably look at other solutions. All of the pricing adds up to be quite a bit. If it is all-inclusive pricing for a single user or for two users then it would be a lot cheaper. I would rate Amazon WorkSpaces an eight out of ten.
