Top Rated Azure IoT Central Alternatives
Creation and management of user roles, who can access your IoT resources and configure the level of access, very granular and self-explanatory Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish they could add more security options, as leaving it by the default values opens up too many vulnerabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing because it has good use cases that are created quickly to learn. It's a good environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use saves me lots of time. I have had no problems!! The biggest thing for me is it saves me time, and I can use the time saved on other projects to help me manage my day more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A great tool. I haven't had any issues at all! Any questions I've had somebody resolved with a quick call to the support staff who were eagerly there wanting to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thing i would point out is the availability of service for people who want to learn more about it. When i first started to learn about IoT Azure was the great place for it. Straight forward I could delve into tutorials and examples found in documentation. I was particularly interested in Azure's IoT Hub and there was an example for every common programming language (C#, Java, Javascript, Python...). Entire chain from reading data on sensor to storing it in any kind of storage in Azure was straightforward to do.
At enterprise level i find that there is a lot of flexibility regarding the prices of different services, it is easy to fit any kind of business into just about right pay tier. My company has different IoT services on Azure and we could fit all into right category for paying. Best out of these are the pay as you use services which are great for mini jobs (very cost effective).
Last thing i want to mention here is Azure's App Service which can host variety of apps. Using Visual Studio is plain easy to publish an application to app service. There is great support for .Net and we had a situation where we had to upgrade our SDK to newer version. After updating the local repository it was once again enough just to re-publish the application and all was taken care of automatically! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We had a couple of situations where it was difficult to set up debugging of web applications on Azure, because the logs are in our opinion not clearly documented. Also some parts about IoT Hub are not clear even with documentation, but it was overcome-able. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Testing software, azure function, stream analytical job those services are user friendly and there is a lot customization and help available and also logging all information if i got any error so it's very helpful.
When i go with iot hub there is many way to communicate and process the data , once you will configure iot hub than you integrate stream analytical job to save data in azure sql server ,In stream analytical job has many feature to process json , docx , xml kind of data ,you can write own JavaScript functions to process or decode your iot data if you want to process or embed your logic in stream analytical job.
But i should mention stream analytical job in too costly service please need to thing about cost.
Another way to process the iot hub , we have server less azure function where is more functionality and function available like azure iot hub trigrre, iot event hub .In case of iot hub we can use iot hub trigger by grouping to merge or group the iot information and also you can store information of data in sql ,mysql , or other database structures.

just only one thing downsizing of iot hub there is 5s water mark delay just need to minimise that delay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to integrate all my devices, industry-focused application templates for retail, healthcare, government, and energy,
Other features include: support for IoT edge devices and module deployments, for customers to deploy cloud workloads directly onto connected devices; plug-and-play support for faster device development and connectivity; ability to save, load, and re-use applications; options for exporting data to other Azure services; support for single applications with multiple tenants; and custom user roles for control of data, actions, and configurations in the system.

1 .The inability to have it operational and smoothly with Ubuntu and Ubuntu servers and Huawei's Harmony operating system devices.
2. A fragmented ecosystem of standards, devices, and services. Wi-Fi’s power requirements and range constraints limit its suitability to IoT sensors and tags that are meant to run on batteries or relay information over long distances.
3.Inherently weak security. IoT endpoints often lack the hardware capabilities to support security best-practices, such as digital certificates.
4. A lack of interoperability between devices, causing extensive system integration i.e. Huawei Chips Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's difficult to say dislike.
1) As of now all learning content is good with Sandbox as I required for End to End Cycle. If possible to add more video for learning and experiment exercise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The fact that most of the scenarios were already thought of and supported by the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Minor modifications required some effort to do so. While it would've been easy for someone familiar, it took a little longer than expected for a person new to such a platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Ease of connecting multiple devices and quick set up.
I liked that we can see all our devices at one places irrespective of the make and model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing sort of disliking , but yes may be there can be better documentation ona granular level. Also please add support for window IOT core in new raspberry please. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The most important feature of the product is that it provides very strong security standards. In addition, having detailed documentation about the product allows you to learn everything about the product. In addition, the product is very easy to integrate and implement into your system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I can say about the product is the pricing model. This model is not as flexible as its competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
