What do you like best about AWS Amplify?

AWS Amplify brings many ready to use solutions, often from the AWS stack, that fasten the web application development and deployment use cases. It offers serverless deployment for modern web stacks such as JS, and React.js. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Amplify?

Despite coming from AWS and being a good solution, Amplify sucks sometimes if not most of the time Often the buttons on the management console do not work as intended. It has a high degree of a learning curve compared to other modern serverless deployment tools and AWS Amplify often makes you use extra services from AWS which has very high cust incurring.

"A smart product for quick launch"
2.5/5
What do you like best about AWS Amplify?

AWS Amplify makes PoC of website or launches of the first iteration very easy and efficient. The AWS Amplify CLI is well thought out and complete, the resulting back-end is performant and answer all the basic needs we expect him to Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Amplify?

The downside is that you are a bit locked by the technology, migrating from AWS Amplify to another cloud provider e.g can be harmful and expensive, which means you have to choose carefully before going this way. It is a low-code solution also, so you won't be able to build on it if you eventually decide that your need is more complex and requires a real back-end Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great automation for building serverless solutions, but it requires coding skills"
4.5/5
What do you like best about AWS Amplify?

AWS Amplify is enabling you to have a serverless infrastructure in a few minutes, without having to worry about identifying and learning how to customize and deploy each infrastructure component. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Amplify?

There is an important learning curve to understand how the solution works and to customize it to your specific needs. Coding skills are required to deploy the appropriate serverless infrastructure. As well, the full package takes some room on your desktop, if it's a very lightweight terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Use the Advanced Workflows at your peril"
1/5
What do you like best about AWS Amplify?

Amplify has saved weeks and weeks of coding time by instantly implementing an opinionated architecture that suits most use cases.

For example, simply adding a `@searchable` directive to a data model gives you a pre-configured OpenSearch instance - something which previously could have taken up to two weeks to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Amplify?

Do not use Amplify for anything other than the simplest of use cases. Anything in the "Advanced Workflows" section of the docs is woefully unsupported, which I have discovered much too late.

Specifically - a very concerning bug where production secrets were deployed to non-production environments was added as a GitHub issue a month ago and has not received any acknowledgment from the Amplify team since then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
