- For most of the services they provide good SLA, however if there are any issues, eg. Network timeout for consumption based logic apps, Azure Data factory, then even if we contact the support, there is a high chance that the support team may not be able to provide you detailed log info, and you have to implement a retry or some sort of workaround.

- Sometimes due to temporary outage of services, alert firing might be missed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to pick a tool within the platform that I like the most, as it's very comprehensive. However, I really like the integration with Microsoft Entra ID, where you can assign roles to users and also set access rules to resources within Microsoft Azure.

Simplicity and features that helps intrgrate different things with ease. We are currently storing csv files mostly. I am using it daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Different Groups we need to create for access control which is I feel needs to be improved a bit. This process of adding users to the existing group can be improved. For a user outside from a group is very difficult sometimes to access files from Blobs. We can add creating date-time in the default view in Storage Explorer, this will help me tracking files properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

its price can be very high, which is why it is worth considering Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Switching to Microsoft Azure from our On-Premise environment has been one of the best decisions of our Organisation. Its easy to understand and implement features has been the highlight for me. Along with this, the customer support of Microsoft Azure is available 24/7 either via chat, email or even a phone call. In my work, I have to use Microsoft Azure on a daily basis. Initially it was scary to switch to cloud but Microsoft Azure has helped us to easily integrate our work to cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's actually not much to dislike about the Microsoft Azure, but if I had to choose something that could be made better is the cost which Microsoft charges. Although all the cost is justified by the product, but it is still not easy for small business to afford this cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
