- Azure has vast varitiy of serivces, be it PAAS, SAAS, or IAAS, so depending on your solution needs you can choose your prefered option.

- Integration with 3rd party tools is easier to implement and secure with OAuth 2.0 approach (based on Azure service principal)

- Do you want to host a simple static website -> just use Storage account, or VM, or App service, choice is yours!

- Facing any issues with any of the implemented solution? Just get in touch with Microsoft support (you need to have the basic support plan) and they will help you to sort out the issue in the best way possible.

- The Azure portal interface is simple and easy to use, resource are grouped using resource groups, so segration of Environments can be done on Subscription and resource group level.

- Being a frequent user of Azure for more than 5 years, I would highly recommand the use of Azure for your next solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- 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.

Being able to find information about Azure is easy. We utilize the platform mostly for data science projects where we need automated ML process. The platform helped us to design a process for our model development lifecycle.

There are around 10 team members that are actively using the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing model is hard to understand and calculate.

So components and services are charged based on transactions which is hard to know till you are fully live Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to manage licenses for software, manage things like access and policy delivery. Its a one stop shop for frequent users, it is mindlessly easy to integrate in a windows ecosphere, and is essentially implemented automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Customer service, on every level, has been a complete crapshoot. It took two weeks to get a single file restored when we had to do so through the Customer Service. Basic tasks, such as assistance with license management, were picked up and worked immediately, but there was clear cherry picking of tasks in order from most difficult to least.

On top of all of this, that file was lost for no discernible reason in the first place. The cloud storage simply dropped it one day. No deletion in logs, no unusual access, it just disappeared, and we ran into a lot of strange issues when utilizing cloud services. I wouldn't recommend utilizing it for something like your AD authentication, or attempting to use the storage they are able to provide, due to these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
