Connectors and guardrails facilitate question-answer setups effectively
There isn't such an issue we have faced with Amazon Q regarding speed increasing. Syncing and indexing takes a lot of time, and they need to improve upon that. Remaining everything is good for us, and that is also acceptable as we can set it as a nightly job. Once it's done, it takes around one hour max for any number of documents. We were trying to address specific issues and challenges by implementing Amazon Q in our environment because currently, they don't provide any APIs directly. We find it difficult to integrate with our product. The second challenge is while connecting Jira, we need the ACLs to maintain our security, but it doesn't allow us to connect to Jira if our ACLs are on. We need to turn them off to connect to it. Even though we connected with the support team of AWS, they were not able to resolve our issue, so we were disappointed at that moment. As a part of improvement, we don't see any improvement areas for Amazon Q at present. We first need to test that we can integrate it with our product. We need the APIs before we can suggest improvements.

Tool proves competitive with cost-effectiveness and speed while benefiting decision-making and integration capabilities, but shows room for enhancing creativity and handling large data contextually
There is another benefit in that Google Gemini is highly competitive from a cost perspective. The cost per token is very competitive. It's not the best - the Chinese models such as DeepSeek are better, but I can't use them. From a cost perspective, between European and United States options, Google Gemini is very competitive. It's not only its cost, it's also very performing. The time it takes to process the prompts and context information is very fast. It's one of the fastest models in the market. That's another advantage. There are other models which are also very good in quality but not as fast, such as Anthropic Claude. Google Gemini currently has a very good balance. The AI capabilities of Google Gemini are a multi-modal LLM which allows me to pass documents, images, and texts in the same prompt. Being multi-modal makes my life easier. I don't have to translate information before I can work with it. Google provides free tools to test scenarios, which speeds up development and reduces costs. It's a very fast and accurate model with quality responses.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The benefits of Amazon Q are that you don't need to build any code base at the backend to develop your RAG system or AI LLM-based summarization systems to do question-answer sets on the documents."
"Amazon Q significantly reduced the time we spent on testing; it served as a great tool where we could ask questions, get answers, and complete testing efficiently."
"The best feature of Amazon Q is the voice chat, where it talks back to you in normal language and you can query it."
"The explanation and documentation capabilities are excellent."
"Amazon Q saved my time more than other products, such as GitHub Copilot, because it is conscious about particular AWS services."
"The best feature of Amazon Q is that it has knowledge of my entire code base, entire repository, and its flows."
"The best feature Amazon Q offers is the code security scan, which actually depicts the threat assessment of the code or whether a particular code snippet can be utilized by attackers to find loopholes."
"The support team from Amazon provides comfort because previously we used to think and implement, which took considerable time, and now we can complete our projects and requirements in three months or two months."
"The most valuable feature of Google Gemini for us is its text writing capabilities, which we are using for writing texts and social media posts for our company's social media page."
"Google provides an out-of-the-box solution with a comprehensive ecosystem of tools."
"It is like having an expert at my fingertips for those out-of-scope queries."
"Recently, Google Gemini has been very stable, without performance issues, even handling network problems smoothly with a retry."
"Google Gemini has the best combination of scalability, costs, performance, and accuracy."
"I would rate my overall experience with Google Gemini as a nine out of ten."
"The best features for my use cases with Google Gemini are its dynamic LLM model that can perform dynamic searches, which is wonderful for factual searches to understand numbers and to generate real-time answers."
"I'm impressed with its orchestration capabilities, which structure the workflow for research automatically and meaningfully, making it a helpful tool."
 

Cons

"The model is not able to give answers properly with the traffic it is facing, so it needs to be scaled more."
"I discovered that the application logs me out automatically after some time, which becomes problematic as I then lose access to my chat history."
"Even though we connected with the support team of AWS, they were not able to resolve our issue, so we were disappointed at that moment."
"While great for standard tasks, it sometimes struggles with more complex or multi-layered problems in large code bases."
"Sometimes feedback is needed immediately. It takes a bit of time because there is a workload."
"When I have reached out to Google Support, it's been very limiting. I would rate Google at about a five."
"There are scalability issues, and they are all related to what you can do within that context window of a million tokens."
"Google Gemini often gets factual answers wrong, which is problematic."
"Currently, it operates mostly autonomously, and while it provides structured activities, making the research configuration more accessible and flexible would be beneficial."
"Google Gemini's biggest strength is also its drawback; it's excellent for generating reports and working with data in real-time, but it isn't the most creative LLM for tasks such as creating a digital storytelling campaign or crafting marketing messages."
"The binning process could be more intuitive, especially when grouping data into categories like age groups."
"Google can improve in model justification and interpretability of answers."
"I conducted some research using Google Gemini, and sometimes the results are not correct. For example, when I asked for information about marketing and inquired about the sources used, the sources were not relevant or had no relation to the subject I was researching."
