What differentiates Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines from other similar products?
My company has been using Microsoft Azure for a long time now and I should say that this is one of the best cloud computing platforms you will ever come across in your life. It comes with all basic necessity features as well as advanced features that are surely necessary and luxury for your work.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Secure data online is a big relief as well as a big threat if you haven鈥檛 chosen the right platform for yourself. Sharing data online is not just something you might want to take risks for. Our company shifted to Microsoft Azure after doing lots and lots of research on security factors and we found it to be the best in the field.
What do you dislike most about this product?
This is not something that has happened yet but you need to put lots of thought into it. You put all data in one platform and if something happens there is nothing else you can do but to sue the company. The data lost will never be able to return and this might be a big issue if you get unlucky.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
There are a few things here and there but when you look at all the good parts of it, you think that this is all manageable. It's one of the really amazing cloud based computing systems that exists and you should get one because you want the best for your company.
Pros
- Efficient Service
- Respectful
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable

What differentiates Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines from other similar products?
Azure is Linux friendly, which was a surprise for me in my earlier days with this platform. We have successfully ran different Linux and Ubuntu distributions on Azure in the past, with success.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I am a big fan of Microsoft Learn. This is because I have successfully in time past found solutions to problems encountered while using Microsoft Azure. Also, this is very critical because of the slow response rate of the Microsoft Azure support team.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Customer Service response rate is slow and options of contact with customer service agents are limited as well.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
This depends primarily on the need, experience and outlook of the team looking to deploy Microsoft Azure.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
