Azure Migrate Reviews & Product Details

What I enjoy best about Azure Migrate is how it streamlines the process of transferring workloads to the cloud. It is extremely useful since it evaluates on-premises environments, finds dependencies, and makes recommendations, making migration planning much simpler. The major benefits are that it saves time, minimizes risks, and provides a clear roadmap for cloud adoption, allowing teams to migrate confidently and efficiently.

The initial setup and configuration of Azure Migrate may be a little complicated, particularly in big or highly specialized systems, which is what I find less useful. In order to make conclusions that can be put into practice, some of the evaluation findings may also be overwhelming or require careful interpretation. Even though it's an effective tool, getting the most out of its suggestions occasionally calls for more work and knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No cons observed till now but new features can be added Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use. One image must be imported in the vcenter, and the discovery can start. All servers in the same vcenter are assessed, and we get regularly some update on compatibility and sizing in very well presented dashboard. Ability to export excel file to rework the data.

more detailed metrics like cpu and memory usage in real time. (can be done with azure service map) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very simple to use. There are plenty of resources that can help assist with the migration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

True cost estimates are vague and cannot achieve a more accurate costs without using other tools and resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure was great and easy to work with during my internship with a software company. Microsoft Azure has many user guides that allow just about anyone to use the product. I would highly recommend it to just about anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

Azure migrate is a virtual appliance that you install on your datacenter, it will analyze your datacenter and make an estimation of what will be the cost to run it inside Azure. Azure migrate will also be able to construct a map of your application interaction with the analytics agent installed on your device. This last service is offered as a free trial for a couple of days. You will be able to know what applications are talking to whom on which port. It is a very powerful tool.

Azure migrate only offers 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 the trial is finished. For the cost estimation, Azure migrate will not take advantage of Microsoft PAAS solutions, it will give you a one-to-one conversion estimation, so you will need to use the Azure calculator to optimize your cost evaluation and use PAAS solutions (cheaper).

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.

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.

It automatically detects and helps you identify the right Virtual Machine size and configuration after analyzing the utilization history from the On-Premises VM. It sees the dependency of our VMs and creates move groups so that nothing is left behind while migrating to cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Relatively new generally available feature, still exploring it. There is nothing bad about it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
