## Reviews

### "A Recommended Tool For Flow Management" — 4.0/5

> **Rahul** | *30 July 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has a very easy-to-use drag-and-drop functionality which saves a lot of time and energy. One thing I really like is that with step functions AWS services are already integrated, which is really a great thing for me. Even It was not very hard to configure AWS Step Functions.
> 
> **Cons**: In my experience, there is not much negative about the AWS Step Functions but one area where they can improve is their UI, if they make their process a little easier, it will be really good.
> 
> I am really satisfied with the AWS Step Functions. It really helps us a lot to automate our processes which helped us a lot of time.

### "Powerful Diagrammable Engine" — 5.0/5

> **Flavio** | *11 March 2026* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For complex flows, step functions help me a lot to understand the cascade of events in its diagrams. For example on onboarding new customers, there's a few third parties integration during the onboarding process and Step Functions helps me to track any failure during the onboarding journey. Integration with AWS Lambda and Cloudwatch happens seamless, so it's easy to identify bugs and track deffect root causes.
> 
> **Cons**: No major issue to report using Step Functions. On large pipelines sometimes execution duration can be a bit challenging as workflows have limits on state transitions per second.
