    You may easily deploy your apps to Azure App Service if they were written in Visual Studio IDE (typically.NET applications). With a few clicks of the mouse, you may already deploy your application to a remote server using the Visual Studio IDE. As a result of the portal's bulk and complexity, I propose Heroku for less-experienced developers.

    Microsoft Azure Logic Apps was a perfect solution for us to integrate the apps and products we used in our business to create automated workflows which were also complex and very advanced. This was a very new feature for us, and also it reduced our software costs massively and also saved us a lot of time. With the crisis, we were in back then Azure turned out to be the best cost-friendly solution because we only had to pay for what we used!

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • Extremely easy to deploy and update from Visual Studio
    • It integrates seamlessly with other Azure PaaS resources
    • It has an in-depth integration with AppInsights, so you can understand errors and their root cause easily.
    • Easy to create and delete, what is not the same case in a IaaS resource
    • It escalates based on CPU workload and some other resource variables.
    • Configuration changes are almost immediate
    • Offers an excellent abstraction from hardware backend of the platform
    • That's updated very often, saving time and the risk of a self-performed update over a IaaS
    • That's really easy to develop for Web Apps
    • It supports Function Apps and Web Apps into the same "cost black box"

    • Connecting to different services using OOB connectors
    • Support for HTTP connectors which enables user to leverage RestAPIs
    • Readability, i.e., it looks just like a Visio diagram. Even managers or HRs can have a look and get to know what's happening
    • It's a Programmer's Lego. It's fun connecting them at the same time getting the work done

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Jumps between resource sizes can get expensive
    • You may wind up putting a lot of eggs in one basket--not necessarily a con but something to keep in mind (most of your data will likely be managed and processed through Microsoft products/services if you fully commit to Azure App Service).
    • Learning new technology. If you're moving from on-premises to Azure App Service (or any cloud solutions), you'll likely have to rethink how things are done to achieve the same end results (and/or resources may become expensive quickly).

    • It falls short of alerting capabilities.
    • Microsoft Azure should be unclouded with its pricing. We don't always know how much an inclusion will affect the monthly price. So we have to speculate where we are with the price and if we can afford to include another asset.

    I have given this rating because Azure App Service performs very well in terms of speed, reliability, and reducing overhead, and improves overall team productivity, with a little scope for improvement in complex testing scenarios and configurations, scalability concerns in a large setup, and similar tracking and audit needs.

    I found them easy to use and adapt to different scenarios, from Azure management to link processes between REST APIs. Together with Function Apps, they're probably the most useful resource type for Azure. Today, I use them in production, and that's a key component: stable, secure, easy to manage, and maintain.

    Microsoft has always been known for providing a high standard in terms of customer support and Azure App Service (and as a matter of fact the whole Azure Platform) is no exception. Azure App Service never caused us any issues and we only contacted their customer support for questions regarding server locations and pricing. I feel pretty satisfied with how they treat their customers.

    Azure Logic Apps are backed by Azure and Microsoft. There is a wealth of information on the internet about both of these platforms. In addition to this Microsoft has a huge bush to using this platform and have offered many solutions and support options to the user. The only drawback is that it is a fairly new platform so the 3rd party information tends to be lacking.

    When we chose it, we did so because of its integration with Microsoft applications; now we need to integrate with AI, and Azure doesn't offer a good integration. That is the main reason to change it. It is still great to develop Windows- and Microsoft-based applications, but if we need to integrate with AI, Google wins by far.

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • Deployment of ASP.NET apps at the organization has been sped up.
    • An option to offer access to the version control system on a third platform so that we could easily deploy our apps.
    • Because of Azure App Service's scalability capabilities, the costs of running the services are kept to a minimum. As a result, we may save hundreds of dollars each month compared to the expenses of traditional servers by using fewer resources during slack periods.

    • Moving to Serverless Computing obviously makes the organization get rid of dependent Infra.
    • ROI can be seen immediately as the required infra can be decommissioned after a successful quarter run.
    • Being deployed as a single entity or single app on Azure Logic Apps, Organizations need to be more careful with controls applied to meet compliance and security posture.
