How would you rate your experience with Amazon WorkSpaces?
What I like best about Amazon WorkSpaces is its seamless remote accessibility and consistent performance. It allows me to securely access a fully functional desktop from anywhere, which is extremely helpful for working across multiple locations or devices. The integration with AWS services and the ability to scale resources up or down based on workload is also a major advantage. Plus, its simple setup and centralized management make it efficient for IT teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I dislike about Amazon WorkSpaces is that the initial loading time can sometimes be slow, especially on low-bandwidth connections. Additionally, occasional lag or latency issues may affect performance during peak hours. While it’s generally reliable, the cost can add up for long-term use compared to other virtual desktop solutions, especially when high-performance configurations are needed.

The best capabilities of Amazon Workspace we used are,
1. Its easy integration with AWS storage
2. Based on the need the resources can be dynamically added or reduces. This allowed us to adjust the resource needs based on different purposes.
3. The AWS Workspace has security enabled with Authenticators, to prevent the misuse of it. We used RSA Secure ID for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Amazon Workspace requires the internet connectivity all the time, due to its cloud nature. And the difficult part is it requires higher bandwidth connectivity, otherwise the desktop screen freezes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Workspaces does not provide environment like Windows RDP, instead you need to use their Workspaces application. Management and Security is completely provided though. 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 workspace provides us a seperate cloud storage to store all the confidential files and reduce the dependencies on other storage spaces. We can access our files through AWS in multiple systems using log in credentials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
