What do you like best about Azure Portal?

The ease of use and maintaining a SQL Server host. Azure portal gives you varied options at a go and you dont have to delve deeper to understand its usage. Create a VM (which is super fast), setup your IIS and you are good to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I initially had trouble browsing through and connecting my IIS to the domain resource group in the portal. After browsing for a while and deleting and recreating my resource group, I was finally able to get it setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Azure portal is web based UI allows you to manage cloud resources and user access to these. Different color themes will help to customize it as it is comfortable for you. Customizable dashboards will help to see all required resources and some basic information on single page. Good solution for deployment of single resource and adjust some properties of existing ones. Great Azure Active Directory managing experience, forms are intuitive and lets you quickly manage your users and applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

totally unusable for mass deployment of resources, you will have to use ARM templates and PowerShell or Azure CLI for it. Does not allows access to deep tuning of some resources, not a concern it is even helpful, that unexperienced staff will not break anything, but can be annoying sometimes. Not very good UI responce, portal can work slo Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Do not use it for big deployments with many resources. Use ARM templates, these will save you a lit of time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Azure portal is a main tool of managing your Azure subscriptions and resources deployed there. After switching to Resource Manager new version of portal looks very good. UI is very intuitive and can be used without lots of problems even if you see it for a first time. Portal is changes frequently, new features becomes available. With the last version of this you don`t have to use old and not very comfortable portal anymore. Customizable dashboards allows you to see all required information on main page without digging to resources. Different color themes can be used in different light conditions. Dark theme is also usable if you are working at night in dark room, your eyes will not be very tired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

Lots of graphical elements and animations makes UI not very responsible, and it can be frustrating. Not very good for bulk changes, you`d better you PowerShell and Azure CLI for these. Some features could be done only in command line tools, so portal is not a universal solution for all your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Do not try do do everything there, some thing are much easier and faster with PowerShell or CLI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

It works, and this is good!!! You can use portal for single resource deployments and configuration management. Also great tool for access management bases on pre-configured user roles. Allows to access different Azure AD tenants without opening new browser tabs or windows. You can download ARM templates for your resources, and in case you will need to deploy these one more time, you can automate the deployment by using this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

UI is very slow, doing a lot of thing can be painful, no mass deployments using UI are possible. Portal is changing very often and rapidly, so you can not find needed elements after returning from vacation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Portal:

Well, you will not be able to avoid using it when start using Azure. Try to do as much, as possible using powershell or Azure CLI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We benefit from the service and AD for example. Microsoft excels in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Like Azure Portal, because it will not allow unexperienced staff to ruin your infrastructure. You just need to set up appropriate locks on your resources. All fine tuning for your resources is not available through the portal, and works mostly via Powershell. Good UI, several themes available, so you can customize portal looks as you like. Flexible dashboards will help you to show most critical resources and metrics on home page, without digging in properties. Informative description for resources in marketplace allows you to pick what you need without going through bunch of documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

Works good only in English, national languages has some issues with page layouts. Not very responsible UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
