Instead of creating several virtual machines and managing all the technical stuffs, Amazon helps to manage all of it by providing Workspaces.

For example, if there is a need to operate a separate WIndows 10 OS and you do not have enough resources, Amazon workspaces can be the saviour! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon workspace provides a secure and development friendly environment prefered by many large companies. It acts as a medium between the user and the developer to interact with each other directly and as a result it meets all the necessary requirements.

Amazon workspaces are the best systems for remote work. No matter where you are or what system configuration you use, you can log into workspaces and access the remote machine to complete your work. One of the advantages for the organisations is that they can restrict access to their GitHub codebases through organization-regulated Amazon workspaces only. Similarly one can restrict the DB access for particular IPs of the workspaces. It has RHEL-based Amazon Linux, very convenient to you and development centric. Another plus point is, that the system inside the workspaces doesn't restart if you just close the workspace and leave thus you can instantly access system to the point where you left off.

There are a lot of things that I like about Amazon Workspaces:

1. Accessibility: It allows you to access your desktop remotely wherever and whenever you want.

2. Security: Due to different security reasons it becomes impossible to allow people to work directly on client data which is sensitive. For that a new secure environment is created using Virtual machines and Amazon workspaces is one of the leading players in this area.

3. Configurabiity: These virtual machines are super easy to configure to the requirements that we have for a particular task. We do not need to have a physical system with different configurations. We just need a Virtual machine which can be configured according to the requirements of the deliverable.

4. Compatibility: Amazon workspaces makes it easy to install any OS of choice, be it Linux, Windows or Mac OS. It is super easy to configure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few things which I dislike about Amazon Workspaces:

1. Connectivity: It lags a lot. Even if we have good internet connectivity bandwidth it lags and sometimes disconnects. It also freeze sometimes to which a solution that we figured out is clicking 'Alt' key.

2. Does not Resume: Whenever it disconnects the AWS needs a restart sometimes and all the local environments inside the Amazon workspaces stops and have to start things from scratch, which becomes little annoying at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
