### "Azure is one of the best cloud computing systems in the market"

August 11, 2020

5.0

We’ve been using Azure for more than 5 years now, we use it to host some of our apps, I don’t remember that we had any technical issue with Azure during all that time, I think it’s a stable, well secured and easy to use system.

Pros

Azure its a Stable system, you can relay on azure while working on the cloud, Its well secured, Microsoft provide a strong security for the customer’s data, its a user friendly and well integrated with the rest Microsoft apps as well as other apps.

Cons

Azure requires some knowledge to manage it properly, migration from other cloud systems could be hard transition, also additional services like Azure Backup can be a little bit costy.

### "Azure is a well thought of cloud computing platform with great functionalities and huge capabilities"

August 22, 2018

4.0

This is a very reliable and is relatively cheap and affordable. We use this tool to manage and run most of our critical items in the Azure servers.

Pros

Using this tool means one can easily and efficiently mange manage the IT infrastructure. Setting up of servers is very easy and takes just a little time to accomplish. I also like the fact that it is very stable with rich functionalities.

Cons

It takes a steep learning curve in order to get the maximum out of this application. I would also be very pleased if the dashboard is changed to make it a bit more user friendly

### "Inexpensive storage solution used for cold storage of backup archives"

March 9, 2021

5.0

Our overall experience has been very positive. We were able to get setup quickly, and have not had much need to adjust any of our initial configuration choices. We expect to further our use of the various cloud offerings within Azure to continue to shift resources to the cloud to increase our enterprise reliability and secured access to remote storage.

Pros

Setting up the storage account and allocating the resources for our storage requirements was simple and straightforward. Azure uses pretty standard naming references, which made setup easy without needing a glossary of proprietary product names. The cost is very competitive, and made choosing to go with Azure an easy decision.

Cons

The administrator interface is very thorough but doesn't allow for much customization, which results in a very cluttered dashboard, requiring numerous clicks to drill down to commonly viewed information and settings.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Microsoft Azure

Pricing was the primary reason. Not only was Azure more cost competitive for our need, but pricing was also more straightforward and we were less unsure of the accuracy of our cost estimate than we were with AWS.

### "Good experience in general, Customer service could be better"

February 28, 2018

4.0

We move from google cloud and it's very different, but we are happy and we plan to stay at least 2 more years.

Pros

There are adding new functionalities all the time. A lot of different types of machines and services. Very good uptime. Some unique features, never seen in other infrastructure provider (Network Disk).

Cons

Poor customer service, sometimes our machines are reboot without any explanation or schedule. UI interface is better than Google Cloud but not better than AWS.

### "Great solution for remote teams!"

November 8, 2016

4.0

We use MSFT Azure to store all our corporate files since we no longer have a physical office and our own servers. This allows us to reduce costs by not having to have an IT staff and not having to maintain hardware such as servers, firewalls, routers, etc. Through remote desktop, our files are accessible from anywhere so we can be wherever we need to be yet still have access to what we need.

Pros

Reasonable cost, convenient, reduces overhead costs.

Cons

Support is often not as useful as we'd like given that this is Microsoft after all.

### "Suitable for streaming calculations"

May 21, 2019

5.0

Pros

Our company does not have enough infrastructure to develop, so we use Azure virtual machines. We pay exactly as much as we spend resources. It suits us well.

Cons

Microsoft Azure is great for small streaming tasks and for rare bulk projects. If your company has a very high workload, then it will be unprofitable to pay for resources. It is better to look for a fixed price platform for a subscription.

October 29, 2019

5.0

I find the solution for a business of any size extremely complete, I would definitely choose it again.

Pros

Azure's solution is very complete, I was surprised at the ease of use to make backup copies and publish web apps.

Cons

The initial configuration in the storage portal and in the VM replication configuration on Hyper-V seemed somewhat complicated.

### "Impressive but changing all the time"

April 30, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like how much Azure is innovating what active directory used to look like. It is pretty easy to work your way around the Azure admin center and figure out where you need to go to do any specific task.

Cons

It seems to be changing constantly. Some user interface changes can leave you struggling to do what used to be quick and easy if you miss a communication from Microsoft of the impending change.

### "The best public cloud out there!"

January 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

So many different options when it comes to cloud computing. Azure offers VMs, PaaS, SQL, Express Route, and so much more. The platform is very stable and support has been very good in my experience.

Cons

No console access to VMs yet which is my most wanted feature. PaaS requires some application development to make sure it works within Azure's constraints.

Pros

December 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

We use the platform not so long ago, but we managed to note some advantages: extensive site management capabilities, support for almost all known programming languages, flexible development tools.

Cons

Given the functionality of the application, its cost can hardly be called a minus. In general, very affordable and flexible rates with the ability to get a good discount. I advise everyone to try.

### "Microsoft’s Azure is the cloud for you if you got the dime"

February 7, 2019

5.0

while I am not a fan of the UI, I still can’t help but to appreciate that Azure makes it easy to deploy with just a click.

Pros

Microsoft allows you to deploy to Azure from Visual Studio. Good customer services. Another areas I like the most about Azure is that it is easy to scale it and it is secure to use.

Cons

Hosting can cost you to leave a dent in your wallet. The interface can be clutter and messy at times. To use it you need to get some experience and learn it by doing if you will catch the idea how to use it - it will become easier.
