The best thing is Pay as you go model as some times there is no commitment of how many days we need to use the resource.

Azure is a modern all in one place for my cloud requirements. It provides solutions ranging from simple virtual machines to a full suite of tooling for building and maintaining software products at big organizations.

Its SDK makes the experience much better, I'm able to run my favourite programming languages without the hesitation of support issues.

All in all I'd highly recommend it for building next gen applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Due to its massive tooling and usecases it can feel pretty overwhelming at times, apart from that costing sometines could be a bit on the higher side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mostly it is a good product but the support channels are too slow and documentation is also not so clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was impressed by the vastness of services provided by Microsoft Azure. It lead me to attaining a few certifications during my pathway to learning more about the services provided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Learning about all Azure services may take a lot of time. In some cases users may need to undertake relevant certification training to learn about all of its features and effectively utilize the solutions. Not have this knowledge may lead to mistakes such as leaving services running and ending up paying for it under the pay as you go model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Azure Virtual Machines for their robust performance and scalability, essential for handling diverse computational workloads. The platform's seamless integration with various data science tools enhances workflow efficiency, ensuring a productive environment. Azure VMs also provide a reliable and secure infrastructure, crucial for safeguarding sensitive data. I value the platform's commitment to innovation, supporting my work with cutting-edge technologies over the past two years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve for beginners can be steep, hindering swift onboarding and utilization. Although from my past 2 years of experience I prefer azure VM's robustness over other cloud VM's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that using Microsoft Azure, my employees and customers can access their email, file storage, information and websites from anywhere in the world using our secure and SSO based Microsoft logins. The SSO platform provided by Azure allows us to intergrate any third-party solution with our existing password strategy. Making the lives of our employees and customers easy, secure, and consistant. Microsoft makes it easy for us to intergrate our on-premise Active Directory platform with their Azure Cloud. That creates less work for my Information Technology staff and frees them up to care for other customer issues and requests. I also like that Azure offers a robust feature set for our cloud based Directory Service platform. This allows us to create redudancy, utilize Microsoft's disaster recovery solution, create servers, desktops and applications needed to support our customers.

Microsoft Azure can be a complex setup. As it is a cloud network, server infrastructure, directory service, desktop provider and holds network applications. It is a very robust tool that should be taken seriously and planned with care. This is not something that should be setup in 5 minutes. There is so many questions involved in setting up Azure and it can be used in many different ways. It is a power tool, to get the most out of it planning is needed.

It is also very modularized, so for example if you want to figure out why your monthly charges were X. You will need to build your Azure portal dashboard, so you can see what network, storage, virtualization costs you are incurring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure appears to be built from the ground up as an all-in-one cloud solution, everything you need to administer your cloud apps/servers/endpoints or 365 services is on hand and easy to navigate. The pricing is nice and simple too and doesn't make it difficult to gauge what you're going to be paying. I particularly like the ACL permissions element which makes admin management a breeze. Google Cloud and Amazon AWS take note. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ultimately the price of certain services, Microsoft sometimes showcase their ability or usefulness to combat a specific on-premise service or security issue but it almost feels as if you're constantly being guided to use their solution only and at full cost. It's not the simplest infrastructure to add in your own services or link any non-Azure instances without some tinkering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

According to me and as per my usage I consider that Azure Machines offer a wide range of networking services in a real time environment and in a optimistic approach Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

According to me Azure Machines usage is a bit complicated and in terms of operation the overall cost of maintenance is too high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
