What do you like best about Azure Virtual Machines?

- Easy to set up and running: answering a few wizard questions and the Azure portal will do the provisioning for you. It has a variations of choices for operating platform and compute performance

- It can also be deployed automatically using Azure powershell modules Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
