CloudGuard IaaS by Check Point
I find it really useful that CloudGuard supports all the main players on the Public Clouds market - AWS, GCP and Azure - as well as some exotic ones like Alibaba Cloud, Oracle Cloud and IBM Cloud. I would say there is about 95% probability that the platform your are using is supported, and I don't know any other solution for now which may provide the same number. Moreover, it integrates with most of the public cloud management solutions, so you could automate modification of the security policies based on some triggers or changes in your the cloud infrastructure.
I also like that different licensing models are supported. For testing/evaluation/PoC projects you could go with the Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) license without wasting a lot of money in case the solution somehow doesn't suit you. And for production you could use the Bring-your-own-license (BYOL) way, applying the license bought earlier.
Firewal and IPS to protect from the common attacks, Application Control for application layer stuff, IPSec VPN to provide connectivity between our environments etc.

CloudGuard IaaS - Intuitive entry point to securing cloud-based infrastructure
Easy-to-use threat prevention and cloud network security solution with great functionality!
My company has been using Check Point's CloudGuard IaaS security gateway and security management for advanced threat prevention, cloud network security and secure VPN connectivity between my corporate network and my AWS environment (tens of VPCs).
It is easy to learn, easy to deploy, easy to maintain, has the highest threat catch-rate to the best of my knowledge (and I compared it extensively with competitors) and provides extremely high value to me, my team and my company.
It is also natively integrated with AWS services, including VPC Ingress Routing, Transit Gateway, VPC Flow Logs, Security Hub, etc., making for a great user experience and definitely "better together" with AWS.
Thanks Check Point!
