Creating a Virtual Machine from a formula can take more time than creating a Virtual machine from a custom image. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to test environments. You can also build windows and Linux environments which is great for any office that relies on technology. A must have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing could be a little bit better. They could also make it so the software is more user friendly for people and employees that are very new to the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to set policies, users, and schedules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Big learning curve compared to other software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user experience is what I look for all the time and Microsoft never disappoints me with that with any of its products. With Azure DevTest labs, the transition was super smooth and the learning curve plus adaptation to its environment was a great experience! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I always like pulling up tutorials and also answers to my doubts from the user community when I face any issues with the software! I noticed a lack of the user community responsiveness for this particular software and would like if it becomes more proactive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost management and versatility of VMs. Leveraging DevTest Labs VM templates and formulas to have pre build dev environments for developers to spin up when needed based on the project they are working on is extremely efficient and cost effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot to take in and digest to best be able to use the tools available. We had a lot of support from Microsoft, however this would be very difficult to build up and navigate alone. The resulting product/outcome could end up costing more than necessary if not configured correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DevTest Labs allow quickly create temporary environments for non-production purposes, use can create entire set of needed virtual machines from a template to perform your work, if you will need another environment you can easily create it identical with previous. You can control quotas for your engineers to manage the costs of your labs, also you can configure autostart and shutdown to avoid VMs running when these are not used. You can save secrets in a KeyVault, like common administrator credentials to save your time when creating virtual machines Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Works only with IaaS resources like VMs and data disks. If you need non-production environment for WebApp, you will need to use deployments slots and non-production SQL Databases Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and span of services and administration interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike is that azure is playing catch up with the other cloud providers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
