4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Web Apps?

Azure web apps are very easy to deploy, easy to maintain and easy to scale both horizontal and vertically. Azure web apps are are server less and manage and maintain on servers. You can easily deploy this web apps and the best part is these application are not vendor locking which means that if you think that your application is not running as expected on the Azure platforms you can carry your codes and deploy on other vendors. Azure web apps are flexible and easily you can diagnose this web applications.

you can also deploy this web apps as Azure functions and logic apps. you can auto scale your web apps easily based on your workloads.

You can write codes in Java, node js, php, phyton, .net and many mores. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Web Apps?

what I dislike is cold start for new instances on which your application is deployed. when ever a new instance is scale up it remains in cold state and any request going to that new instance in cold state takes lot of time to execute which may result in time out connection.

The hosting options and pricing is not always clear. Ofcourse you can use the calculator but still you need to just start with using and use a certain plan in order to find out what the actual costs are.

And sometimes the app has a cold start and it takes a few seconda when the app service respons. I have no clue what causes this because I have always on option checked Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
