Its is versatile,hybrid capabilies ,scalabilty ,secure and intereged with microsoft make this easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cost and plans is the thing that i dont like. It should be more like what we pay for use not to create resources or creating Host and not using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Azure offers choice which type of VM we have to create and what type of performance we need. We can assign that particular size to the VM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yes, in Azure we are unable to rename the virtual machine name once created like in VMware. There is another way, like we can create a snapshot of the OS disk and then create a new VM via that snapshot, but that is a lengthy and time-consuming process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Azure Virtual Machines like any other cloud provider works the same, nothing really differentiator in terms of capabilities as such, features are the same as other, one feature that I do feel is not available anywhere else is the resolution selection for the VM that is something unique and useful in few cases. It is easy to use, easy to create multiple VMs with a single command and easy to manage. Customer Support is top notch, issues get resolved within 24 hrs. Other than that, it just comes down to what other things Azure has to offer. Integration is the biggest issue for Azure at this point in time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing wrong with the Virtual Machines in general but to use Azure as your complete solution for cloud faces a big issue, as AWS offers so many services with the Virtual machine and to change that is a big challenge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use the platform and their UI is user friendly. Easy to scale up the workloads & Ram down when the usage is less. It is very cost effective if we use pay as go model.DR Solution is very helpful it has the backup of all the workloads (Compute) we can use it incase of Disaster. Customer support also very helpful & resposne immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been working on this for more than 1.5 years and I didn't face any issue with Azure and everything works good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure Virtual Machine is an easy-to-implement and managed cloud computing service. It offers configuration options that allow us to configure the optimal VM for Azure SQL workloads and cloud-based applications. Azure VM is scalable, allows fast connection, integrates with various Azure Cloud services/Apps, and has a reliable customer support forum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Azure Virtual Machine service is efficient for various workloads, but the price beyond the general-purpose tire is high, especially for short-term contracts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Microsoft includes all the cloud services. I can easily deploy my application in Microsoft Azure. Also, it provides many options when we create any services/server for ex. virtual machine. it gives many options in RAM, OS etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is expensive compared to other cloud services for small businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very easy to use azure portal. It is a piece of cake to create and deploy VMs with OS of your choice. You can literally create a VM within 10 minutes.
The best part is you can pay as you go. Let's say you only use the system for 8hrs a day. So, you can auto shutdown after that time so the payment will be less.
Most of our VDIs and Servers are on Azure which provides high Scalability for our servers and good performance of VMs for the employees.
The customer support of Azure is top-notch I got to admit it, they respond so quick and assign an Engineer like in 10 minutes if the Severity is A and if you are a premium subscriber. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to dislike, there will be outages sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances like powercuts or disasters. In which the systems may go down and unavailable but fortunately there are options in Azure to re-deploy in other centers in case of failure and we have load balancers and DR systems for our critical landscapes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
