Azure files help set up SMB file shares for organisational file share requirements, majorly useful in your AVD deployments for having FSLogix file shares for storing user and office365 profiles. It's easy to set up and maintain and can be secured by enabling private endpoints on the storage account to prevent unauthorised access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The minimum file share size should be 100 GB, which may not be suitable for more minor share requirements, and the maximum file size capacity of a file is up to 1 TB if using a standard Azure file share and 4 TB for a premium Azure file share; hence organisations should be careful when choosing Azure files, and other best option is to go with Azure Netapp files which gives better performance and storage capacity pool options with higher iops in comparison with Azure files.

It is Exellent Option for small and Midsize companies who is looking for moving on cloud with their on-prem file services. it is very safe and flexible to deploy based on the requirements. I have recently moved our Company's on-prem data to Cloud successfully with improved performance. initially, we were looking for some third party storage Management solution where we will have backup, point in time snapshots and security. we found the solution but the cost ways high. it was costing the solutions somewhere around $40000/year which looks huge. we start exploring the features on azure files with azure file sync. it exact match the our requirment with less the 1/4 of the total third party solution.

it doesn't provide global file locking facility. I have deployed the Azure FileSync Agent with Cloud Tiering enabled. when i open a file from AZ Sync Agent 1 and same file can be opened from AZ Sync Agent 2 and can be edited. whoever saves last will be overwrite first saved data.

More reliable virtual platforms without maintaining on prem machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a little confusing when setting things up initially. When the connection speed is fine in the States, it's quite bad for our teammates on the otherside of the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Basically it is the best cloud that blends with Windows. It has good virtualization feature and good feature for security and disaster recovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am developer and I am using Azure Storage from quite a time. I am very much satisfied with this offering. The integration it offers with developer tools and ease of use is the top priorities and it outshines in both. Many options available with just easy configuration adds to awesomenesa.

There is not a single thing that I dislike about Microsoft Storage Service. I am using it for quite a long, like last 7 years and the journey of making it better every day is incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure Active Directory Services(AADS) and the level of data security and data segregation that Azure provides is top notch and I believe way ahead of its competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In terms of cost effectiveness, management and the actual console, I think sometimes it leaves a lot to be desired.
Also it's a steep learning curve for its platform managed services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Azure files keeps you files in highly availability. Your data is replicated across multiple data centers and multiple times, so it is always available and protected against data loss, even in the event of a hardware failure. Also we can easily add more storage capacity as the needs grow. Azure Files also offers high performance so applications can access the stored data quickly and reliably.

Being a cloud service, and especially if you need a lot of storage space it could get very costly. It is also complex to manage, especially if you are not familiar with cloud computing. Consider also that when in cloud you need to mitigate any risks of security breaches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure is an absolute all-rounder with no disadvantages. Based on my personal and professional experience with Azure, while I had some issues with Azure, they were fixed in no time, which really impressed me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very wide, it offers a lot of services especially for web development. You can set up your own website, it has devops processes, app services, app logics. You can also buy your own custom domain and host your app files and a lot more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a bit expensive, a lot of services has charge while in normal hosting like Godaddy, once you bought the business hosting, you can buy as much domains you want and create as much websites you want at cheaper prices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
