Coordinador de sistemas Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Azure" December 31, 2018 5.0 your company in the cloud, more efficient, more secure. Pros only need internet connection, with azure the robust and expensive datacenter are a thing of the past, the advantages for medium and large companies, is to depend on datarcenter, with azure you can have all your services in the cloud, database, backups , the security standards are the best in the world, there are no limitations with any application that the company uses, it is compatible with linux, with now space, money, support, updates, when you have it, you will always have the best for your company . Cons users and companies still do not know the full potential of azure, by decoupling the customers and the mistrust of the past, culturally the user has ancient customs, storage and use of the nine, the many sectors still retain the traditional datacenter, it must be further documenting to users and companies that the cloud is secure, it is more practical and that their additional costs will be optimized.

There is good documentation when you can locate it as well. Pros I really liked the integration with our on-prem domain. We were able to seamlessly move to Office 365, Sharepoint Online, and Exchange Online in a short time period with minimal interruption. Cons The management interface can be difficult to navigate and finding specific information can be difficult to locate. Review Source RH Rosalinda H. HRBP Ice Cream & Food Solutions Divisions Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "My favorite cloud platform" June 1, 2019 5.0 Pros During my career I managed to work on the three most popular cloud platforms: Amazon Google and Azure. They are all good in their own way, but only Azure is ideal for large businesses. Cons The platform is suitable exclusively for large businesses. Microsoft Azure allows you to work with powerful virtual machines, but it is unlikely that small or even medium-sized businesses will be able to use resources to the maximum to recoup the cost of a subscription. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Telecommunications Systems Administrator Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "One Stop Shop for the common developer" September 12, 2018 5.0 Pros the entire azure suite of tools is incredibly well rounded. I ran my very first web page off of azure (still running it off of azure) and while it is a little intimidating upfront, the services offered streamline the entire process of starting a website from scratch. Cons The platform is a bit intimidating, I still don't have a hang on all of the features and honestly feel like I could study for months and still not have gone through half of the services. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Human Resources Business Partner Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for many uses" August 19, 2018 5.0 Pros Azure is a great platform and I am able to host many projects on it. I like being able to pay only for what I use instead of a monthly cost for sitting idle. Cons Configuration is easier with a team dedicated to administration. Review Source HN Hannah N. Digital Marketing Specialist Education Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A great piece of software that brings a lot of benefit to professionals" November 28, 2022 5.0 We have used this to support and improve internal communications. The information provided by azure about each employee is useful and helps us with collaborating efficiently. Pros Integrating with our current business processes has never been easier. We have used this to support in creating a company wide intranet which has provided a simple set-up, with great features. Cons Currently only one person in the business has the ability to adjust other people's contact information, this may be something we have not fully explored so I cannot really list this as a con but perhaps a wider selection of guides for users.

November 30, 2019 4.0 Server and AD hosting, backups and everything else. Pros Microsoft’s enterprise cloud suite for fully software datacenter hosting needs. Can run almost any workload there now Cons Still a bit pricey and can be complex to fully integrated with on premise servers and active directory.

Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Tech support Maritime Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Azure is great for syncing your on Prem AD with Exchange online" December 19, 2018 5.0 Pros When we first started using office 365 for our email server they did not have a way to sync our on prem AD account password with their emails. So our users had to have 2 different password one to login and one for emails. When they came out with AZURE AD that all changed and we where able to sync our users password with their windows login and email. Cons After setting up the AD sync it was a pain to reactive everyone so they could have one password.

IT Solutions Architect Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Azure the future" February 20, 2023 4.0 Pros I admittedly like the easy usage of viewing resources and ease of use in some other areas. Cons COST! COST! COST! Licensing costs, other related costs makes it prohibitive to conduct developlement. Reason for choosing Microsoft Azure Company has a vertically integrated usage with Azure. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Server Manager Higher Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Microsoft Azure Review" January 17, 2019 4.0 It does allow synchronization between my onsite AD and Office 365. When it's working it's great, but when it fails, support is offshore and extremely difficult to understand. Pros It does allow synchronization between my onsite AD and Office 365 Cons Offshore support is terrible. Reps are hard to understand and do not listen to the problem. Review Source RP Rovena-Maria P. Senior Accountant Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "We were able to save on equipment" December 23, 2019 5.0 It’s convenient that Azure has an interface that is almost identical to other Microsoft applications, which greatly simplified my familiarization with the functionality. Pros I have been working for a long time in the company and remember the time when we had our own servers. They constantly broke, and work stopped. Now we have switched to cloud servers. They do not take up space, do not break and are cheaper to maintain. Cons I miss the desktop and mobile application. Now you have to work through the browser. At first I did not agree with the principles of operation of some modules, but over time I realized that they were designed perfectly.

November 30, 2022 5.0 Pros Since the application is from Microsoft the features are amazing.working fast comparing other same types of apps. Cons Pricing is high, 29$ per month.For large data handling the file size allotted, is seems to be less. Review Source JA Jose A. Ayudante Tecnico del Departamento de Informatica Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "My experience with Microsoft Azure has been satisfactory being able to make my applications " February 27, 2018 4.0 My experience with Microsoft Azure has been satisfactory being able to make my applications without worrying about the patches, the network, the load balancers, the updates and how they interact with the system. However, the services offered by us as developers allow us to manage the entire life cycle. Pros The almost obsessive approach that everything was in the cloud and the services offered as developers allowing us to manage the entire life cycle: initial design, development, testing and its implementation in the cloud providing us with the tools to analyze and create new versions and implement them without the need for inactivity, as well as download the application in SDK format for local review of it before its global execution guaranteeing the satisfaction of our customers Cons Azure is far from having such a complete stack, but still maintains the traditional business and licensing that forces customers to migrate to the cloud however the price adjustment for processing time is a bit high especially for medium and small companies who need applications to expand their horizons. The centralization of the applications and the storage of the data originate an interdependence of the service providers which generates certain distrust in our clients because the information of the company must go through different nodes to reach its destination. Review Source BO Bernard O. Chairman Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Service is beneficial to use" December 23, 2019 5.0 Pros Our company has been using Microsoft Azure for 2 years. Before that, we used products from Amazon and Google, but we did not like the payment system. I had to pay a fixed amount every month, regardless of the resources used. At Microsoft Azure, we pay exactly for the resources we use. Cons We started having problems when we connected more than 100 people to work with Microsoft Azure. If they all enter the platform, brakes and crashes appear. Review Source pW pathmika W. Software Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I use this everyday" April 28, 2023 5.0 I have started studying azure beginning of this year and I have quite a good knowledge of it. Pros Our team is using azure for all projects and it has tons of features and services to make creating and deploying tasks really easy. We use services like nosql and sql databases, file storages and recovery options and server less computing. Cons For me learning about the azure was the hardest path. I had to follow youtube tutorials and documentations to learn from zero. Review Source GG Genesis G. Marketing Specialist Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Microsoft Azure Review" February 26, 2023 5.0 Pros Azure offer a wide range of features and services, including virtual machines, storage, databases, networking, analytics, and more. Cons This complexity can make the process of getting started with Azure difficult and time-consuming. Additionally, there can be a steep learning curve when it comes to setting up, configuring and managing Azure.
