What do you dislike about Azure Migrate?

Some explanation contained too much jargon, especially for someone just starting out in the industry. Since I was an intern with I used it, some of it went over my head. The user guides really helped though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Migrate:

Microsoft makes Azure seem like the best product because it is one of the best. Although my use was minimal, the product speaks volumes. Since it's Microsoft you don't have to worry about quality or support - they really care about those aspects of their company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Azure Migrate?

Azure migrate is a virtual appliance that you install on your datacenter, it will analyse your datacenter and make an estimation of what will be the cost to run it inside azure. Azure migrate will be also able to construct a map of your application interaction with the analytics agent install on your device. This last service offer as a free trial for a couple of days. You will be able to know what applications is talking to who on which port. it is a very powerfull tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Migrate?

Azure migrate only offer a migration to Azure (not surprising). If you want to have the full map of your applications inside your datacenter, you need to install an agent locally on each server and you may want to remove it when trial will be finished. For the cost estimation Azure migrate will not take advantage of Microsoft PAAS solution, it will give you a one to one conversion estimation, so you will need to use azure calculator to optimize your cost evaluation and use PAAS solutions (cheaper). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Migrate:

you should install azure analytics client inside your datacenter so you will get a more accurate map of what can be migrate and how you should migrate it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Migrate solving and how is that benefiting you?

Azure migrate gave me an accurate description of the applications relations inside my datacenter without spending to much time to analyse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Migrate?

It was fairly easy to use because of the discovery features and being aware of HyperV platforms that we had on-prem. It identified dependencies that we hadn't thought of when making the move, calling out gaps in our plan. It made our end to end process easier to plan and navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Migrate?

Like any tool of this nature, you get some false positives or suggestions that aren't as crucial or dependent as the software thinks. Other than that, it worked fairly well for us. I'd rather know more and scale down what I don't need than to not know the gaps existed in the first place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Migrate:

It worked well for our needs migrating HyperV VM workloads from on-prem to Azure. I am sure there are more features planned and improvements coming, so check for the latest features before ruling this tool out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Migrate solving and how is that benefiting you?

Migrating on-prem HyperV VMs to the Azure cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Azure Migrate?

VMware VMs running within its own data center, including CPU and memory usage, as well as performance history reporting Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Migrate?

Dowloading and installing the Collector appliance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure Migrate:

Be sure to have the right level of resources dedicated to the Collector Appliance portion of the project- we did not and therefore were two months behind schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure Migrate solving and how is that benefiting you?

Installing the agents on premise to enable the dependency mapping features took more time than expected. We did, however, find some surprising data hogs during this process, so that was a tremendous benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
