"Unified Dashboard Makes Azure Management Effortless"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Portal?

This platform offers a unified dashboard that brings together all Azure cloud services. It provides consolidated reports and access to every service, making it much easier to track and manage cloud resources efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

For some of the services, managing them through the portal can be challenging. Additionally, I believe they need to address the frequent permission issues, as there is often no clear error message to help track or resolve these problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The ever changing face of Azure"
4/5
What do you like best about Azure Portal?

All your Microsoft Azure needs in one portal. Support is usually good depending what parts of Azure you need help with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

The layout and where things are keep on changing. Also, some of the names change as well making navigation sometimes very confusing. Lots of features that is overwhelming for companies that are new to Azure. You get a list of SKU's to pick from, but you can't really customize the amount of CPUs, RAM, storage, etc. compare to other products such as VMware. The UI needs a lot of work. Expect your costs to go up as nothing is free in Azure. Even with picking the right App service plan, VMs that are right-sized, and use of reservations your cost can easily skyrocket. Small to Mid sized businesses beware before deciding to go all "cloud" in Azure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their price is very high compared to what OCI offers me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid cloud management platform with room for UI improvements"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Portal?

The unified dashboard has been extremely useful for managing all our cloud resources from a single location. I find the resource group organization particularly valuable, as it simplifies tracking various projects. The integration with Azure DevOps works smoothly, and the built-in Cloud Shell is a real time-saver whenever I need to execute quick commands without having to switch between different tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

At times, the user interface feels somewhat sluggish, particularly when switching between various services or loading detailed information about resources. The search feature could be more user-friendly, as it can be difficult to quickly locate specific settings. Additionally, the interface tends to become cluttered when handling multiple subscriptions, and I would appreciate having more options to customize the dashboard layout to better suit different workflows.

"Outstanding Experience from Start to Finish"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Having a unified location to view all my company's resources and monitor their health and status is extremely convenient. The wide range of services available has made tasks that were once time-consuming and complex much simpler. I have worked extensively with both Azure and AWS, and I prefer Azure because of its straightforward approach to service visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

For a global service, I find it somewhat unreliable. I have experienced outages several times a year, all stemming from Microsoft issues in their datacenters. Considering the advanced technology involved, such incidents should be extremely rare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Complete Enterprise Solution - Seamless Integration with Office 365 & Active Directory"
5/5
What do you like best about Azure Portal?

Managing licenses and subscriptions is very convenient on Microsoft Azure, as the platform supports Office 365 and integrates with Active Directory.

What do you dislike about Azure Portal?

If you're a first-time user of Microsoft Azure, you'll likely encounter a significant learning curve. The portal lacks gamification features, which means I often spend more time scrolling through documentation to find what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
