"Do faster upload and download to s3 - Long distance."
What do you like best about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

This is a cool and much-needed feature of the Amazon Simple storage service. It helps to upload to one central bucket and download from that bucket that is located centrally. You can get fast speed for your operations. We can transfer GBs of information via this. When there is a need of transferring larger objects to a central bucket and want agility to do these operations faster there is a case of using transfer acceleration for s3. It will logically shorten the distance. It is easy to enable this feature in s3 buckets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

This is a great feature and we can say a great add-on for the s3 service. It might take some time after you enable this feature to s3 to see increased speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very good experience using Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration."
What do you like best about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration is an incredibly useful tool, as it allows us to accelerate long-distance transfers and large amounts of data to S3 buckets in a secure, easy, and fast way. Additionally, by routing uploads and downloads to AWS's global network infrastructure, we have the possibility to reduce network variability and Internet connection congestion. Another of the multiple benefits this tool provides is reducing the existing distances between our apps and AWS servers by automatically routing our uploads and downloads to much closer Edge locations. It also allows us to increase bandwidth by using 100% for transfers, thus minimizing the effect of distance on performance when uploading to Amazon S3. Furthermore, it is worth noting that Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration only charges us for the accelerations effectively carried out, meaning that transfers not accelerated by this tool are simply not charged. This is undoubtedly a demonstration of transparency and honesty on the part of this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

I am very satisfied with the performance of this platform, Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration, a tool that is very easy to use, configure, and implement, with which you can not only accelerate your transfers to S3 buckets, but also have the possibility to improve the performance of transfers by routing traffic through the multiple locations of Amazon CloudFront, AWS backbone networks, and by using network protocol optimizations. Additionally, it reduces the existing distances between our apps and AWS servers by automatically routing our uploads and downloads to much closer Edge locations. Furthermore, it allows us to increase bandwidth by using 100% for transfers, thus minimizing the effect of distance on performance when uploading to Amazon S3.

"Cheap & effective"
What do you like best about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

I only need to store a couple of downloadable items in s3 so it is completely free for me, which makes it a lot easier as it just opens up another web browser to download things like ebooks instead of having to send them to a google drive or dropbox link. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration?

It is a little confusing as I have NO tech experience whatsoever so it took a little bit of googling to figure out what some stuff meant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
