"Compilation of the most important mobile metrics"
What do you like best about AWS Amplify?

Opening up directly to a dashboard of my most important metrics is the most helpful part! To drill down and get more specific, it is easy to see to get to users or retention metrics from the tabs. Also, changing the time frame (frequently happens) is front-and-center to the experience. Overall, all the main actions are clear, which makes it easier to maneuver my data.

What do you dislike about AWS Amplify?

Some of the data that has come in through Mobile Analytics hasn't been the most accurate so we have to go back and re-establish the set-up. Most of the other issues sound like they'll be solved once this product shifts over to Pinpoint, however! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
