### "Great if you're already using .NET/ Good for everyone else."

August 16, 2024

5.0

I've been working professionaly with Azure for about 6 years with 2 years off using Cloudfoundry. Azure is far better than Cloudfoundry. And if you are already building with microsoft tech like .NET and C#, Azure is a very natural extension into the cloud.

Pros

If you are already a programmer using the Microsoft software ecosystem, Azure is the cloud for you.

Cons

The pricing can be a bit expensive. There are a number of free services and if you don't need to scale up a lot you can probably accomplish a lot on the Azure cloud for free.

### "Good but expensive. "

August 5, 2024

4.0

Overall an extremely powerful and well integrated service. With the right licensing you can build and operate a well moving and redundant system.

Pros

Lots of quick integrations and prebuilt features for bringing on other tools and building a microsoft based stack.

Cons

Hidden pay walls with various pieces of services hidden behind tiering and no good definition of what goes where.

### "Azure requires a steep learning curve but is worth it once you are familiar."

September 12, 2024

3.0

Azure requires a steep learning curve but is worth it once you are familiar. You really can't run a Microsoft user base without it.

Pros

Azure is a necessary component for any enterprise admin managing Microsoft users, licenses, and apps.

Cons

While Azure offers a multitude of insight and ability, it's quite difficult to navigate for unfamiliar users. That combined with the fact that many functions can be performed on other services such as MS365 and SharePoint Admin Center can be quite confusing.

It is a competitive and comprehensive platform for Enterprises and security features add to its features. I am completely satisfied and my customers are happy with the support and cloud services

### "Popular for Cloud Computing"

August 27, 2024

5.0

Using Azure effectively requires familiarity with its services and configurations. This can involve a learning curve for teams new to cloud computing or specific Azure services.

Pros

I like that it has a easy user interface for customers to use. It is relatively easy to navigate and the dashboards give you summarized information that you need. Azure provides a wide range of services and the ability to scale resources up or down based on demand. This flexibility supports varying workloads and business needs.

Cons

I believe it has a slightly complex pricing structure - with various factors affecting costs such as compute, storage, and data transfer fees. It requires careful planning to avoid unexpected charges.

### "Azure's cloud services are world-class"

July 25, 2024

4.0

Pros

It integrates very easily with other Microsoft products.

Cons

The Bastion concept was very confusing given that it's a managed service that still has to interact with a virtual meeting, instead of just being a virtual machine that users could manage.

### "Best when Bundled?"

August 22, 2024

5.0

I now use three different authenticator apps mandated by different work-related software: Duo, Google, and Azure Authenticator. I suspect Azure is the most secure and when I use it with Outlook integration is good.

Pros

Easy to use and app works on tablets and phones

Cons

Installation of app is not very user friendly and I hear that as a standalone app it can be frustrating in terms of payment system (I got mine from work)
