### "Azure by Microsoft"

May 19, 2023

5.0

Its a 10/10, the ROI is very good for this application , I would recommend this to everyone.

Pros

Storage of logs which can be accessed anywhere globally. The data back up and the data security is top notch. It is a platform which is scalable and reliable to most of us. Secured integration between the platform and application.

Cons

They should provide a free tutorial video so the we can understand the basics of the application. Free training could ensure higher adoptions to make it the market leader

### "Premier cloud for cloud stuff and data security"

June 23, 2022

4.0

Pros

Azure is as good a cloud platform as any other cloud platform but excels in areas such as data security, both in terms of end user services (O365) and internal platforms and services. From a system development perspective it has all the options available that could be wanted and it's easy to use.

Cons

Some areas, such as serverless deployment, lag behind its competitors. You have to do your research for your particular use case before choosing your platform.

Reason for choosing Microsoft Azure

Microsoft Azure better fit my use case

### "A modern cloud for your business, solid infrastructure"

May 8, 2022

4.0

Several years using the cloud and I have loved it, I have seen how it has evolved over time and how easy it is to deploy any service or infrastructure in the cloud, I recommend those who want to start migrating from the physical world to the cloud.

Pros

They have a modern and easy-to-use dashboard, their interface can be understood by anyone, whether or not they are an expert.

Cons

Some advanced functions if you require a trained professional to be able to carry out the configurations correctly, if you are not a professional in the cloud you can learn with the documentation that Microsoft has, in addition to this you can train for free and apply for a certification on the subject.

### "Azure review"

September 22, 2020

5.0

Virtual machines were much better choice than having in-house hardware. PaaS has proven to be even better choice than IaaS. But Azure is definitely not the cheapest choice.

Pros

At start we needed virtual machines. Since they have preconfigured VMs, it was very easy and fast to setup a set of virtual machines and connect them. Later we wanted to switch to a higher level of abstraction. Their PaaS is well developed, and it liberated us from thinking about updates or backups.

Cons

Total system costs can rise rapidly. And although they are almost 100% uptime, at least once a year some part of their system is down.

Reason for choosing Microsoft Azure

We use Microsoft tools like Visual Studio so Azure was natural choice.

### "Go-to Cloud"

January 26, 2019

4.0

As a self-employed web app consultant I put all my clients on Azure and I can administer them all with my one account. It's super quick and easy to setup an entire web app with hosting, db, queues, etc., and whenever I'm forced to go back to AWS for a specific service I find myself banging my head against the wall wondering why they haven't updated their UI or UX in forever. Azure's come a long way and they have great documentation and lots of sources of tutorials that walk you through everything.

Pros

Once you get into a specific service, it's fairly easy to click around and find whatever you want, the interface is pretty consistent across all services, unlike AWS and seems to give tips all around. Super easy to use with projects made in Visual Studio.

Cons

The overall UX can take a bit of getting used to and they've changed it several times in the past completely. Once you know what you are doing, it's not bad, but getting up to speed can be frustrating. Some features you'd expect to exist in some services just don't, while they do in AWS, this can be frustrating, but the opposite is also true!

### "The Titan Of Writing Software!"

May 4, 2019

5.0

It creates a great space for bloggers, writers, students, teachers and basically any one who needs to get work done online. The fact that its so accessible and simple to use is why its so prevalent.

Pros

Microsoft to me is like a octopus or a spider. They have so many legs or tentacles that point to a specific system that works extremely well when they all go together. I use it basically for anything that has to do with writing online. They upgrade regularly, and they only add things that make things even more stress free. I'm using it to write my first novel.

Cons

I actually have nothing I dislike about this software. I am absolutely in love with it and it is truly worth using.

### "Full Of Features, Speed and Stability"

October 22, 2020

5.0

It's hard to give a concise review of all Azure but I would recommend poking around if you feel like there is a feature you need that Azure services don't support in some way because it is likely that it actually does support it in some way with perhaps a name or description that isn't obvious to the vernacular you are expecting

Pros

The breadth of services are fantastic, we use their API management (APIM) which allows us to group our API's into products very simply. Getting the service deployed is simple leveraging the Azure CICD pipeline and controlling secrets with KeyVault leads to a nice integrated system. Azure exposes a plethora of APIs to allow you to integrate your services with any of your current systems without having to radically change your develop and deploy pattern that developers are used to, it also allowed us to integrate our own security tests and checks right into the deployment

Cons

The reporting and management is a little light, this is mitigated by an API that allows you to pull far more data than the dashboards display but I did find it a little annoying.

### "Many options, but needs time to dig into it"

October 10, 2018

5.0

It helps me do my work and it is pretty stable. I'm using it and I will continue to do so.

Pros

I like Azure because it removes the need to buy, upgrade and maintain your local IT infrastructure - and it also has some great services which you would probably never deploy on your local servers. Ability to quickly scale up or down is a great plus .

Cons

It takes a lot of time to learn how to use Azure, and it takes even more time to figure out their pricing. Also, their support isn't so good, lots of time you will receive a generic answer for your question and you won't receive any tips on how to solve your problem unless you ask a specific question.

### "Cloud Platform for Serious Business"

March 19, 2019

4.0

Our business relies on Azure 100% for our hosted SASS application. If Azure goes down, we go down. They are reliable and offer many features that make us look reliable to our customers.

Pros

I like the Azure Portal and how easy it is for me to find what I need to work on at any given moment. The dropdown menu does a keyword search searching not only for features but also existing resources. This lets me get to what I'm looking for much faster than navigating using the Navigation menu. I also like the ability to set up alerts, modify configuration settings and view metrics in an easy to understand manner.

Cons

Sometimes the Azure folks make changes to existing features that you rely upon without much (if any) warning. This makes it hard for some customers that have issues with change. Especially unannounced change.

June 7, 2020

4.0

So far its very ease of use with detailed azure dashboard, subscribing for services and monitoring the services are detailed with better statistic reports

Pros

Azure database which helps us store data on cloud, using visual studio is the best way to connect to the azure database.

Cons

Cost is little higher when comparing the pricing with Azure and other services for startup companies.

### "The Top Cloud Solution/Provider"

September 5, 2019

5.0

I'm part of an Cloud Migration program. We use Azure and I most say that all the resources work perfectly. And it's very positive for the developers working for a technology that is leading the Cloud industry. You never stuck searching for how to do something and that's a lot.

Pros

You have plenty of documentations in every place, so if you need to know ho to do something, is there. Everyone is usen it, so if you need to know how to do something, someone already ask for it. This is Microsoft, they are the leaders in the developer world. They know what you need even if you don't thing that you needed it. You have resources for everything, stables, full of features and already used for big/small companys.

Cons

It's very expensive. For small teams I don't think is the way to go. You have competitors that think more in smaller teams.

### "Made creating our new webs apps much easier"

December 5, 2017

4.0

Pros

Our new apps use Azure for SQL server, web hosting, and storage. We have been able to scale quickly from a single customer site up to 15 with no changes to our code other than the routine fixes, the azure infrastructure meant we were able to focus on the customer facing interactions rather than the backend.

Cons

We were involved with a recent outage, which was a little scary. Ultimately we've found that large scale outages are very rare, and very quickly resolved - with good RCA and status reports. For our type projects, Azure infrastructure has made us more dependable than our previous local hosted iterations
