Overall experience is smooth and hassle free as per of cloud , I personally used for VM and will continue to use.

Pros

I most liked about this software is wide storage for linked application and writing to the logs file directly which help to track the record in safer way.

The feature I least used is serving images directly to the browser which I fell of low importance , other things are fine

### "Best Solution to manage Frequently/In-frequently Data accessment"

November 14, 2022

5.0

My Experience has been great deploying configuring it for on-premise users as their Secondary Date Drive for sharing files among their Teams.Also, I have deployed it as an attached disk for Virtual machines whose data aren't frequently accessed.

Pros

I like the fact that I can configure how my data is being accessed to save cost. These are the HOT COLD and ARCHIVE options.

Cons

Since I have been using the software, there hasn't been any least feature I can point out yet.

### "Azure Blob storage review"

October 13, 2022

3.0

My overall experience with this product was quite good i mean its not completely bad its usable and convenient for usage although its bit costly compared to another service.

Pros

Most I liked about this service is that without moving data anywhere else we can run analytics on data there itself another thing is for security there are many features using which we can make sure data never gets on wrong hands.

Cons

Its bit costly according to me .As there are other services also for data storage this one seems costly whereas other cloud providers are much cheaper with wide geographical regions all over the world.

### "Le storage de fichier efficace de Microsoft"

December 13, 2023

5.0

Azure Blob Storage est efficace et simple. Il répond au besoin de stockage de fichiers que l'on peut avoir lors de développement web.

Pros

Totalement intégré à l'environnement Microsoft, il est facile intégrable à une application .NET et bien d'autres. Le stockage est performant (cold ou hot storage) et le coût mesuré.

Cons

Comme tout élément dans le cloud, il n'est pas forcément évident de savoir précisément le coût réel mais les prix restent mesurés pour un tel produit.

### "If you have lots of data then store it virtually with Azure Blob"

March 2, 2023

4.0

The experience has been good with archiving data, taking it as a part of our pipelines and also fast retrieval/accessing of data with client side data encryption as part of the safety.

Pros

Azure blob storage is the best storage service on cloud which is very good in scaling up or down, also being flexible at the same time. Any amount of data can be stored without any storage restrictions. Physical storage can be tedious to manage but this is all virtual so not much to worry about the underlying hardware too. Also keeps the data secured with azure's security features built-in.

Cons

Considering the point that it can take quite some time to integrate blob with other systems because there can be a lot of connections and configurations to do. Also, accessing data when it is huge can be a bit slower at times.

### "Affordable and Reliable Cloud Storage"

February 5, 2023

4.0

Pros

The ability to store a variety of data types, including text and binary data, makes it a versatile solution for a wide range of use cases. The integration with other Azure services, such as Azure Data Factory and Azure Machine Learning, is seamless, allowing for easy data analysis and processing.

Cons

Overall it is great and integrating it with other Azure services is simple but when it comes to setting up and integrating Azure Blob Storage with other systems, it can be complex and time-consuming.

### "Scalable for large amount of unstructured data"

May 7, 2023

4.0

Pros

What I like most is its scalability to store and manage a large quantity of unstructured data such as documents, images, videos or logs in a cost effective manner. It integrates perfectly with other Azure services (functions, machine learning) to build robust data-driven apps.

Cons

It is very hard to manage and set up access control to the data. There are many security policies to study and learn the impact to ensure only authoruzed users can access or modify the stored data. Also, storing large volumes of data can have a high cost if you are concerned about pricing.
