I believe it's free of charge or comes at a very low cost. It's an additional feature. Even if there is a fee, it's minimal. AWS seems to assist customers in gaining a comprehensive view of their security setups within AWS. Using Control Tower is highly recommended, especially as your company grows and involves Active Directory, various departments, and different architectural aspects. It becomes more advisable to leverage Control Tower rather than managing these aspects manually, especially for larger organizations.
It is cost-effective and the associated cost is quite minimal. The only investment is the time and effort required to acquire the skills necessary to use it.
The cost is reasonable, but there are opportunities for improvement in terms of pricing for larger enterprises. As organizations accumulate costs for numerous services, it can become a significant amount so reducing these costs would be beneficial.

The price depends on what you want to do. For example, if you want EC2, choose micro or whatever. If you choose EC2, maybe it has to run for 24 hours, but that would be different from someone who has to run the tool for two hours or one hour. With my personal AWS account, I sometimes leave it running without knowing.
The product's affordability depends on the value it brings to specific organizations. Small businesses may find it expensive. It helps streamline operations, improve security, and reduce costs by enforcing best practices and policies. Thus, it is costly but valuable.
In Brazil, pricing for AWS Control Tower is very, very high. On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing an eight.
AWS Control Tower offers the easiest way to set up and govern a new, secure, multi-account AWS environment. It establishes a landing zone that is based on best-practices blueprints, and enables governance using guardrails you can choose from a pre-packaged list.
Control Tower within the AWS Organization does not have a charge. It is free and does not incur additional charges.

I would say it is average. It operates on a pay-as-you-go model, meaning we are charged only for the services we actively use within it.
