Azure Virtual Machines Reviews & Product Details - Page 45

nice user interface, $150 free trail every month, fast virtual machines from lots of locations

In addition, I can bring down the virtual machines when I did not use them which will save me time and money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. azure did not support ICMP ping from outside, this limits some of the feature.(for example, when I want to keep checking if this server is alive, I need to do a TCP ping)

2. not enough documents. I think Azure does not have enough documents describing the architecture, the APIs etc. I thinks it is not developer friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very intuitive user interface that is very enjoyable to use with minimal help needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The program take a bit longer to setup than other programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Changes on the API and UI are still to often to catch up with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like being able to manage all my development infrastructure in one place Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Portal needs work, new portal should have all old portal features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spin almost any instance at will. You name it- VMs, IOT, CDN, Analytics, Storage, Business Intelligence, Networking and more- its all available on Windows Azure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nada. The offerings from the Windows Azure team works fine for me presently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I just love the amount of different services integrated on the same cloud and the fact that we can combine them to build a custom system fit to my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very complex and very error prone. The Debugging is not easy and some edge features are not always easy to troubleshoot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support is amazing, each time we had a question was answered fully in satisfactory time.

The reliability and scalability is much better then previously worked with Amazon or VMWare's vCloud.

Deployment is easy with predefined VMs, just couple of clicks and you are up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The predefined VMs sometimes too basic, the number of things you can configure is limited. Better off doing your own "VM". Noticed few times the web portal was unavailable, however the machines were unaffected. the GUI could be a little more responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The feature set, speed of improvements and new features, competitive cost, "lift & shift" capabilities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be slow for documentation to appear, particularly for technical aspects of the solution, such as PowerShell Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Azure development framework is very solid. There is plenty of training materials online with examples that cover all basic scenarios. All solutions are build with scaling in mind and MSDN covers this topic in detail.

Azure provides a range of services, like VMs, SSaS, Machine Learning, Active Directory, etc. Microsoft constantly releases updates to all the services, so the tool set will get even richer with time. There are regular web casts conducted by Microsoft every week covering old and new Azure features. A lot of attention is dedicated to business cases review and discussion.

I can see Azure very useful for companies that require solid infrastructure, that scales with the business, and without a need of ever-expanding IT department dedicated to its support. With Geo Redundancy, the infrastructure and data are much safer that in a common On Prem scenario. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had used Azure for educational purposes so far and could not find any specific downsides of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure is constantly being improved and more things are showing up in their marketplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has some moments where it acts very strangely like infinitely loading a VM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
