I will say that the Amazon services integration for the most part is good. But I don't like the fact that AMZN seems to try and nickle and dime you for everything. I got a blink camera with one of my dots and it is essentially useless because I can't hook it up to my personal cloud - or at least I can't do it easily. Same thing with my garage door opener and its camera. Unless I upgrade to a cloud storage service offered by AMZN or the device, the integration between those devices is pretty worthless.
But I didn't get them for that, hence the ratings. If I had gotten them for those things, then the rating would be lower. For now, I'll just do it the old fashioned way.
