What do you like best about Azure Virtual Machines?

The most helpful thing about azure it saves you data to the data center, which means saves a copy of data, if data got deleted by any issue you can recover it easily in the azure machine.

migration tool gives you all detailed information about features, specifications and the most important part is it gives cost before moving any on-premises data to the cloud platform.

you can change the configuration of your Azure virtual machines too.

you can access so many applications such as the complete office 365 suite which is given by Microsoft officially.

you can share any file or upload any file within your team by using Sharepoint links.

I used to migrate on-premises SQL data to the Azure cloud platform, I have learned a lot of many things when I joined this project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Virtual Machines?

the least helpful thing is when you want to create a workspace in synapse analytics you need to measure some cost every time.

when you want to take backup of a virtual machine that is kind of easy but while restoring a single file is a bit tough and you will not get the version of your original file.

When you want to create any new service you need to create an additional service to host the same apps.

mainly issue has cost only in these azure virtual machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Virtual Machines solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me to set up an RDP connection easily, Also a Linux server too.

from these two I can do my development as much as fast.

And the best feature is also helpful in accessing Microsoft services like office 365 suite, SharePoint online just to sign in to your VM i.e., azure virtual machine.

The main issue is an investment, if Microsoft gives monthly basis costing that will sort so many issues.

it saves a copy of your data on the data center it's like a backup for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
