Though AWS managed services and Amazon Account Management both aim to improve the seller experience on the Amazon platform, the two services have multiple key differences.
The Difference Between Amazon Account Management and AWS Managed Services
AWS (which stands for Amazon Web Services) is a subsidiary of Amazon. It provides on-demand cloud computing services and APIs to organizations, enterprises, and individuals. AWS uses a PAYG (pay-as-you-go) cloud computing payment method that charges based on usage.
While AWS managed services are affiliated with parent company Amazon, Amazon account management is a comprehensive service provided by outside agencies to Amazon sellers. Full-service Amazon management firms handle everything from product marketing on Amazon to inventory management. Companies such as Envision Horizons offer account management services that include daily monitoring of the company’s Amazon account and listings, bi-weekly reporting, and live communication.
At Envision Horizons, we do more than account management. We commit to helping companies better connect with their consumers on Amazon and Walmart. Our team of specialists provides a broad scope of e-commerce expertise in order to help businesses cultivate sustainable growth and embrace cutting-edge strategies.
Earlier this year, we received our first review on Clutch, an established B2B ratings and reviews platform. This review was provided by one of our clients, a DTC umbrella brand, for which we provided extensive Amazon account management and SEO services.

When asked what is the most impressive part of our partnership, our client said:
“Their ad spending optimization has been the most impressive thing about them. They’ve been a huge boost in our life. Beyond that, their expertise in the platform and knowledge of how the algorithm works are also impressive.
If we’re doing something on our website, we have to mirror that on Amazon, and vice versa. They help us keep our whole operation across our channels in sync, so everything’s working efficiently, and we’re getting the best return possible.” — Business Analyst, Umbrella Brand
