Best cloud platform provider for Enterprises!

Reviewed 2 years ago

We use Microsoft Azure daily (at least 6 hours a day). We extensively use Azure to develop and deploy highly scalable cloud-based solutions. All doubts and new implementation are easily available on billing.

Pros

Azure is super-fast, easy to use, affordable, always on-demand and high integration friendly cloud platform.Below are some pros that makes Azure Cloud a market leader- We get Microsoft Hands-on lab learning platform for easy onboarding of new users.- Azure's support policy is very dedicated and is handled by qualified engineers.- Their billing policy is very fair, and we can easily stay in budget.- A lot of industry grade certifications are available to represent learning made on Azure.

Cons

There are no cons at all. But I personally feel that West Europe region of azure services is very weak and outage prone, we see outages very often.However, Azure is always developing and spreading its horizons over huge projects like Hyperledger, Blockchain, Big Data, Data Analytics, and Data warehousing etc.

Great cloud platform

Reviewed 2 years ago

In my case, my experience was satisfactory. In fact, Azure can easily use the performance and use of all companies, whether a local company or a company that has offices in different countries / regions. In this way, it can concentrate on commercial objectives without thinking about the infrastructure that supports the process. In addition, from the user's point of view, you can always have a good experience regardless of your position. With the safe connection, you can easily access the platform.

Pros

Its design is beautiful and intuitive. This is an easy to use tool that is excellent to meet my cloud storage needs. I like to store all kinds of information and additions to a certain function. Excellent application for online storage. It offers excellent videos and graphics for exchange that is difficult to receive by email, due to this script, it fully helps in the development of work and helps...

A Competitive Cloud Provider

Reviewed 3 years ago

I've been using Microsfot Azure since last 6+ years and I am still convinced that it is the best cloud services solution available in the market. Compared to GCP and AWS it offers a good balance between cost and benefits.

Pros

Microsoft Azure has many features, but perhaps one of the things that I find most valuable it is how easy to use is the Azure Portal. Compared to Google Cloud or AWS , Azure portal is intuitive and you can deploy resources in a nutshell. There are a vast number of resources from which you can select the ones that fit your needs. You can quickly deploy Linux or Windows Servers, VPN services, Load Balancers, API Gateway, and so on...

Cons

One important feature that it is missing, is an improvement in the Azure Calculator that allow you to effectively calculate your monthly costs. It tends to be quite difficult to do an accurate estimate of prices.

Azure has a long way to go

Reviewed 5 years ago

Azure is developing itself continuously and I believe it will be better in the future.

Pros

I gave 5 stars to its features and functionality because Azure really tries hard to stay competitive in the market and it has most of the features that a cloud provider should offer. We use Azure to provide our services to our customers that work with Microsoft. What I like the most about Azure is its AI tools. Azure is really successful when it comes to machine learning.

Cons

I will be a little bit cruel about Customer Support and Ease of Use. We work with Azure as CSP partners. One day we had a problem with one of our servers and I couldn't even reach to support team to get help. Later I learned that since we are CSP partners we cannot directly get in touch with Azure team. Instead we should contact our local dealer to get support. It is tiring to involve bureaucracy...

Microsoft Azure works, but needs more ease of use

Reviewed 2 years ago

Over all Azure works. There is a lot to be desired as far as ease of user or our non technical folks. It does what it's supposed to, but i am sure we are not getting our full value out of the software.

Pros

I like the deployment manager and the integration tools. This allows to help secure and work with outside software products and keep source code / security tools in one place.

Cons

The collaboration tools are not user friendly. A lot more thought should go into a better atmosphere to allow all users of Azure to work together. This includes technical and non-technical.

Game and Life Changer

Reviewed 6 years ago

Aside from the worry about data centers going down, I have absolutely no problems with Azure and my experience has been amazing and very educational.

Pros

Azure has certainly changed the way I look at platform hosting, as well as app availability. Before Azure, it was a real pain to plan deployments of both new and updates to the web. From the setting up of IIS, to the configuring of firewalls and everything in between, it was always on of my most dreaded tasks. With Azure, everything is central and easily managed. I can spin up new apps, update existing apps, scale up or down on resources, and the list just goes on. I think back to the days of having to coordinate with so many people for hardware, software, networks and even a simple server reboot was something that was always a big concern. So many cool features, from basic to "I don't know yet, but I am excited to find out", Azure has made life so easy for myself and our company.

Cons

When a data center goes down, it is a mission to get your databases going. The app side is okay, but SQL on Azure becomes a huge challenge. There are tools to make life easier for DR scenarios, but they are pricey and through research so far, I found that even having a combination of the available options in place, still will not guarantee a hassle-free way of keeping your databases available.

A Comprehensive Solution

Reviewed a year ago

In all our projects, we use Microsoft Azure together with all units within the bank. We have developed many web and mobile based applications. We also manage our virtual machines with this system.

Pros

Before listing my favorite features from a software developer's point of view, I would like to point out the following. Banking is a high risk industry and we needed to modernize our financial systems and keep up with technological innovations. That's why we chose to negotiate with Microsoft Azure by unanimous vote, and we have never regretted it. As for my favorite features; It has an incredibly useful interface, it has quite a variety of data management systems, we can easily develop our web-based applications and deploy them quickly to the preprod system and then to our porduction system without the need for an extra tool. Frankly, I love development services and I believe every developer will. Finally, its fast, flexible and useful structure made me very happy.

Cons

There is no feature that I dislike or that I like less. I am happy with all its features and I love them.

Reliable,Cost effective and secure Cloud service Platform

Reviewed 3 years ago

It has been a good experience using Azure. The biggest problem solved by Azure is that of limited storage by providing us with more data centers.

Pros

Microsoft Azure is flexible and scalable in that an organization can adjust capacity as it grows and depending on the organization's capacity needs. The fact that Azure has secure private connections,it allows intergration with the organization's existing IT environment. In this case the organization needs not to choose between the existing data center and the cloud. Azure has unique storage. This means that it provides more data centers which in turn makes data storage and transfer fast and reliable. Another outstanding feature that Azure possesses is that of creating VMs. The process is easy and takes little time.

Cons

Azure interface is more of a developer interface though it has no problem appearing that way.Its appearance does not affect its functionality.
