## AWS IoT Analytics Reviews
  ### 1. Analyse massive volumes of data from IOT at scale

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aman M. | DevOps Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2022

**What do you like best about AWS IoT Analytics?**

- Easy to deploy and configure and analyze the data from various devices.

- Also the registration of IoT devices is simple and easy

- The main thing is that it is fully managed like we don't have to manage the underlying infrastructure.

**What do you dislike about AWS IoT Analytics?**

Nothing in this service that is to be disliked it is just perfect when we have large amount of data to be analysed like in TB's then it slow downs and hangs a bit, and one more thing is pricing that is bit higher.
pricings like data processing, query execution needs to reduced. Rest all is just FINE !!

**Recommendations to others considering AWS IoT Analytics:**

Rather than collecting data in excel sheets and then giving that data to other visualization platforms USE AWS IoT analytics in order to cloudify your solution and analyze and visualize your data at scale.

**What problems is AWS IoT Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have more than 100 devices deployed on the Production, onsite and to monitor that all that devices are currently giving their 100 percent we are taking the data previously to google sheets but after integration to AWS IoT we are able to gather the data and analyze this all data at scale within a fraction of minutes.

AWS IoT analytics helps me to integrate seamlessly without any hardware and software requirements challenges.

  ### 2. AWS IoT analytics

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** mostofa m. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2022

**What do you like best about AWS IoT Analytics?**

Aws IoT service is a great off-the-shelf solution where you don't need to think about the infrastructure just plug in and go. Especially for the startup where fast shipping is really important. You can directly work with your data like sending emails, sms using lambda function, sns, sqs and so on.

**What do you dislike about AWS IoT Analytics?**

Lack of proper guidelines like how to connect to the core, how to connect to other services.These documents are hard to find.

**Recommendations to others considering AWS IoT Analytics:**

I would suggest this service.AWS team is a customer-focused organization, and they do everything possible to make a customer happy. They already have improved the setup, and it's a continuous process.

**What problems is AWS IoT Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I worked with an electricity sharing platform(solar electricity) where real-time communication was very very important like if a meter went out of money, we needed to let the customer know to recharge the meter at no time so that they could stay productive. So using analytics, we measure the current balance and send notifications to the customer.There are many more features like those.
