What do you like best about Azure Portal?

It is a bit slow to deploy and delete the resources from the Azure portal then from the shell command. It can be considered for such a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

The GUI of the Azure portal makes it the best to use platform for all Admins as well as non-admins and also better than other competitors. Two-factor authentication makes it more secure. Also, the ease to create modify VM's, Storage, etc or any resources is the best. Data replication is just another best thing in azure which can be done within few clicks. The metrics are visible of every resource which is very much useful in tracking the usage of every resource. Their advisor service is nice too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

Nothings as much but still it crashes frequently after some time which will be good if resolved. Also, the feature of billing after VM is turned off should be checked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Azure is the best platform for the development of your product. Every bit of detail is mentioned in the documentation which is very important for everyone whether they are users or administrators. The pricing is also minimal as compared to the competitors. Azure will touch heights in few more years. Consider it as your best working/development platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Security is one thing and also managing clients as per the Azure portal is a major benefit. The documentation is good to follow and also I am involved in major company projects in which almost all resources of the azure portal are being used whether it is a VM or a Storage/Container or network service or an App service etc. Everything is solved with the help of azure. Also, the major benefit is using the CI/CD pipelines in azure which is a limitless feature of azure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Azure's cloud offering is top-notch with excellent up-time, but found its management portal to be very complicated to use and manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

The biggest issue relates to Microsoft's active directory model. My employees and I found that we had multiple accounts by accident based on how we signed up for Azure. When we initially signed up, it created a Microsoft custom domain to represent our domain. So we couldn't sign up with our actual email address - it was a microsoft.domain address that created painful issues. I spent weeks with different groups at Microsoft to manage and fix it - which was extremely frustrating`. Having used AWS and Google Cloud previously, I can say definitively that as a startup, beware of the complexities as Microsoft is going to be more enterprise-centric. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

I think Azure's portal is probably great for enterprises that already leverage active directory. But for startups where things are more makeshift, need to be aware of the caveats and complexities using their product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Managing our Azure cloud and VMs. It was able to do that once we figured out how to properly login based on my comments above. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Although we do have multiple options to work within azure, the Azure portal comes in handy due to its GUI. We can easily search for our needed services.

We do have customization of the dashboard depending on our needs. The most advantage of azure is they do provide documentation for each and every service they provide. That helps beginners to learn what the services are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

I wish I would have got more features in the trial account so that we can experience much of their services.

It does need some learning curve to get used to, Understanding concepts like storage account & resource groups might be a bit complicated for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

It is recommended for people who need multiple resources for a short span, They can opt for cloud services instead of investing in physical hardware. It is cost-effective. They do have multiple options like pay as you go, Enterprise and student edition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Since we are in a pandemic situation people prefer to work from home, We manage many of our services in azure like VM's, storage and Azure AD, etc. It is easy for us to maintain a DR setup in Azure when the primary setup goes down. We also use Azure DevOps for task management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
