Painless
Easy deployment. Deployed this to multiple VPCs and with correct Security Groups it works!
A few steps during deployment can have it connecting out automatically to the console.
PERSCODE= in the User Data field is required for registration.
Make sure your network settings are right(Need that outbound connection to WAN.)
I changed from Magnetic media to GP3 also.
Otherwise it works great!

Quick and simple setup
Launched with default configs, aside from the VPC and network settings, which I changed to a private subnet via NAT gateway.
Really easy to set up - the portal UI gives you a single UUID, you drop it in the user data, and that's it - once launched, it talks to the SaaS API, and appears in your scanner assets. Everything else is done from the SaaS portal.
Must be launched manually
per their docs: "NOTE: At this time, this product instance must be launched using the "Launch with EC2 Console" option."
This flies in the face of everything devops. You can't automate it. I am forced to use this by our secops team. If it were up to me, this alone would be a showstopper.
