Yeah, they’re good, but more expensive than you’d expect given the relative pricing compared to other AWS services. $0.025/1000 transitions seems and order of magnitude or two high given it’s just ultimately a central job store with some very, very simple logic for changing state.



Step Functions are convenient but for the reason you stated we stopped using them. Pricing seems off for what they do, especially when it's in volume.
