What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Cloud with its rental has many uses that can be relied upon in learning literature on Azure Cloud globally, which can expand the understanding of its uses, and the service portal accessed is very secure. By adopting the existing services, it feels like just one step away from mastering Cloud with other knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

When starting to register before entering the portal, usually tempted by the reference to open a free account, which ends in a deadlock with the credit card because we do not have a credit card. If payment could be made accessible in another easier way, then I think the deposit solution is quite safe for subscribing to pay as you go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Learn a lot about Cloud and local server settings with its migration to Azure services in the Cloud, maybe later I can get funding to purchase domain services and expand the business field as MaSS (Microsoft As Software Service). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

It is a complete solution that an organization must-have, whether they're Small-Medium Enterprise (SME) or a Corporate Enterprise. First and foremost is their security compliance. The interface is Intuitive and Browser-Based allow you to write codes in an intuitive and browser-based interface. You can also utilize your favorite development tools for debugging and building. Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment. Through development tools, GitHub, MS Visual Studio Team, etc., Functions can support CICD even if it is a serverless. Integration from multiple services internally and externally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

What I don't like with Azure is their pricing model. Vendor lock-in is another thing that tops the list. Although most cloud service providers assure that it is a breeze to use the cloud and integrate your business needs with them, disengaging and moving to the next vendor is still a huge problem. Microsoft licensing scheme is too complex for the average user, and Azure SQL syntax is too different from traditional SQL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Azure offers secure IAM capabilities with Azure Active Directory service to enable the right users to access the correct information. With Azure, Enterprises can adopt mature IAM capabilities to reduce identity management costs and become more agile, thus supporting innovative business initiatives.

What problems is Azure Portal solving and how is that benefiting you?

First is the security, with the advancements in technology, every cloud service provider offers more advanced security features to their clients with full backup and recovery. A The key to this is the encryption of all data that is transmitted over networks and stored in databases. This is much more efficient and reliable than a conventional in-house system, where a high percentage of data thefts can occur. Next is Reliability, they signed Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to ensure timely assistance to our business needs. All the service-related technicalities are taken care of by the cloud service provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Management of Users, Groups, VMs, Conditional Access. Many actions used to require Powershell, but this is slowly decreasing over time with examples such as Bulk B2B invite.

Linking SaaS solutions with SSO in Azure is a massive bonus also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

There is not much to dislike, we are happy with the current product and the continued improvements over time. The only improvement would be to standardise what actions can be performed in the M365 Admin Centre vs. Azure Portal. Which place to go can be confusing to newer admins.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

I love using the Azure portal. It's fun using Azure data Factory and various other services with ADF. It is very easy to use Data movement and Data Transformation. There are lots of facility available with Azure for security purpose also key vault n all services. various type of databases available for practice whether it is sql server, mysql, postgresql, and many more in the list. It provides wide range of integration with othwer platforms also. Azure Databricks is an another service that is provided by azure portal. Another facility is that we are having is real time data ingestion or capturing the real time data with Event hub which is again an amazing feature. Azure portal provides everything we need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

Sometimes taking too much time for load the services.

And also, the cost is sometimes too high, e.g., if anyone is working with Event hub, then it costs too much.

If someone is working with the free account, then I think some more number of services should be included in the student subscription Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Should decrease cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Portal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Basically, We are using this platform for ETL. First, we are ingesting the data from various sources that can be on-premise, located on FTP serves, SAP, and many more. Then with the help of different activities available in ADF, we transform the data and clean the data and further do the required computation on the transformed and clean data. And finally, we store that data in a particular format and scenario. Also, we are using the synapse service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

The Azure portal has a diverse set of capabilities that allow you to manage Azure Active Directory, virtual machines, virtual networks, and conditional access policies, all from one platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

A person using the portal for the first time will have difficulty locating a setting or policy that you want to set up or change a configuration. The user will need to look over documentation to find the proper location for a setting or menu option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

You will save a lot of money by switching from an on-premise environment to the cloud. Azure can be challenging to set up at first, but once you have configured everything to your liking, it's a platform that you will only need to check into every once in a while. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Portal solving and how is that benefiting you?

Azure eliminates the need for physical, on-premise servers and machines. The IT team no longer has to remotely connect to a device to configure it, saving time and money. It is also much easier to manage users and devices from the Azure Active Directory and Microsoft Intune platforms. Azure provides extra security by flagging suspicious logins and allowing users to set conditional access policies (MFA). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With the help of the Azure portal, we can deploy our application-related web APIs on the Azure portal with the use of the Azure app service.
