Azure Virtual Machines offer great flexibility, stability, and integration across the entire Azure ecosystem. Creating VMs is extremely easy, and templates/SKU options help in optimizing cost vs performance. Features like Availability Sets, Scale Sets, Azure Backup, Update Management, and Azure Monitor make lifecycle management smooth and automated.

Performance has been very consistent, especially with newer VM families. Integration with Azure AD and RBAC improves security and governance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing can become confusing, especially with storage, network bandwidth, and licensing components. Support for issues sometimes takes longer than expected. Additionally, importing/exporting large VMs between regions can be time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure Virtual Machines provide flexible compute options and integrate well with other Azure services. They make it easy to provision scalable infrastructure and support a wide range of operating systems and workloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost management can be challenging, and the pricing model is not always easy to understand. The portal and configuration options can also feel complex for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like these things about Azure the most :-

1.It Feels Like Home for Windows Users.If you’ve grown up with Windows, Office, or Active Directory, Azure feels like a natural extension of that ecosystem.

2.Unlike some cloud providers that push you to go "all-in," Azure understands that many businesses can’t (or don’t want to) abandon their on-prem servers overnight.

3.Even though it’s a Microsoft product, Azure plays nice with Linux, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and even competitors like Oracle Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Basic support is lacking. Unless you pay for Premier/Enterprise, expect slow responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't dislike anything about Azure but some services like Application Gateway and Azure Cognitive Services can be a bit costly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing that I like the most is the perfect pricing structure from Microsoft Azure, this is transparent and competitive, choosing or option the right pricing is very easy in this, and everything is mentioned on their website related to the cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The worst part of this platform is the maintenance, integration, and deployment of this platform, this is a very hard task and without any technical support, I can not able to do this, The maintenance of this platform needs a dedicated resource for this all the time.

I love the flexibility of options with Microsoft Azure, you can select when you want your server on running and save money when it isn't needed and have it off. I love this and the ease of use with each server/VDI you are using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you need a lot of bandwidth and storage with growing websites and large images etc, this can cause a spike in expenses. Things like web servers are best not to use this infrastruture. Outside of this I love just about everything else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Switching to Microsoft Azure from our On-Premise environment has been one of the best decisions of our Organisation. Its easy to understand and implement features has been the highlight for me. Along with this, the customer support of Microsoft Azure is available 24/7 either via chat, email or even a phone call. In my work, I have to use Microsoft Azure on a daily basis. Initially it was scary to switch to cloud but Microsoft Azure has helped us to easily integrate our work to cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's actually not much to dislike about the Microsoft Azure, but if I had to choose something that could be made better is the cost which Microsoft charges. Although all the cost is justified by the product, but it is still not easy for small business to afford this cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
