"Healthcare and Azure"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

Azuree gives us some additional insight into our environment that I personally have not seen with any other vendor. Any aspect of Microsoft integrated into our environment can be managed from Azure

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

There is a bit of a learning curve, something I have found to be common withing the Microsoft suite. If you are able to adapt, you will have a fantastic experience.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is allowing us to blend our on prem alerting with our cloud alerting, allowing for an all in one experience with Microsoft that we have grown very fond of. Cant beat it.

"Managed SQL Database for high performance web apps."
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

Fully managed, right from fast writing/reading to core scaling to backups everything is natively built with strong native security. The best thing is the ability to scale UP/Down as demanded by application.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

Nothing as such. You get a fully managed server database server with the best in class feature. However, there is further scope to integrate with Ai enabled reporting to figure out optimum deployability.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing databases at scale is costly. Azure SQL database embeds all the needed dB features into a seamless fully integrated machine enabling ease to integrate, operate and scale at fraction of cost when the management is self.

"Has mobile app to monitor availability"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

I can easily monitor database resource health on Azure app

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

I cannot execute sql query directly on powershell. Need to learn powershell in order to perform operation. Not as straightforward like MySQL.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly just scalability as if storage space is running out we can get alert also.

"Best software to manage the database on Azure"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

Earlier, we were using the SQL database on our servers, that time we were managing all the stuff like permissions, access policies and networking with multiple platforms which was taking too much time to manage all the things. By using Azure SQL Database that issue has been resolved.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

I don't have seen any issue with Azure SQL Database, but yes I can say the costing is very high. Also Azure provide the Pay-as-you-go modal so that we can manage the costing easily.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

The managing of the Infrastructure, Networking, Access policies with the different platforms has been resolved with Azure SQL Database as it provides everything in one place.

"Highly useful tool for managing cloud services provided by microsoft"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

It has many features for fixing issues that could otherwise not be changed in the backend for M365 UI; having the option to run a PowerShell window and tie-ins to resolve matters is terrific!

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

The UI could use some improvement to help people find the correct settings window; it can take quite some time to locate the correct window for the proper application.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can clone users' security and distribution lists by running a script that makes it far easier to set up new hires. We also use Azure to sync with our AD and run VMs for employees to develop on.

"Azure SQL database is the best ever database in the database segment"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

The best part about Azure SQL DATABASE service is a top class database which provided by Microsoft. It is the best service for managing and maintaining database which is easy to use and will be available in a given budget.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

Sometimes it takes much time to retrieve the data from the database and because of that we can't respond to the query in time.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a large amount of data that we set into the SQL database where it takes a lot of time to set that but Azure SQL DB took very less time to setup everything for our production environment.

Our team widely works upon data analysis and storage. We store and commit our program files in azure containers to achieve a backup and desired secure space to keep them.

"Azure SQL database review"
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure?

There are many things that I like about Azure Database, but one of the things that I appreciate the most is the ease of use. The Azure Database portal is very user-friendly and makes it easy to manage my databases. I also like the fact that Azure Database is highly scalable and can be easily scaled up or down to meet my needs. Overall, I am very pleased with Azure Database and would recommend it to anyone looking for a cloud-based database solution.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure?

There are a few things that I dislike about Azure Database. First, it can be expensive. Second, it can be difficult to set up and manage. Third, it can be slow.

What problems is Microsoft Azure solving and how is that benefiting you?

Azure SQL Database is solving the problem of managing and storing data in the cloud. This is beneficial to you because it means that you can access your data from anywhere, and you don't have to worry about losing it if something happens to your computer.
