### "AWS AppStream" — 5.0/5

> **John** | *22 March 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The hardware is managed by Amazon.  I also enjoy how we can offer applications in the cloud that can be accessed by students from any device
> 
> **Cons**: I would say the biggest barriers to entry are the user interface can be a bit convoluted and it takes a little while to become acquainted with how to setup the fleets.  Also, AppStream can be a bit costly depending on the model you choose.
> 
> Overall, I would recommend AWS AppStream to any company looking to cut costs in regards to hardware.  I would say AppStream offers a supplemental way to access applications.
