"ECS is packing some real power and punch!!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

- ECS is integrated with AWS, so you get all the great features like security and stability.

- ECS has all the parameters that Docker uses, so it is easy to replicate same container in both local and ECS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

It has some learning curve because of the way it integrates with AWS. You need to have IAM roles and setup networking to get this working. It is also expensive as hell!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best scalable container service to run your enterprise docker containers"
5/5
What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

The best part of using Amazon ECS is it's a fully managed service and also scalable using ASG(Autoscaling group), So you never have to worry about your application load and performance. And you can also create ECS clusters to group your containers based on the usage and monitor it from the cluster level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)?

There is not much to dislike, but the learning curve is a bit steep as it needs to be configured efficiently for best performance and optimal usage. And also, it would be great if it could support all container services. We have different services for different container services like AKS for Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
