User Testimonials
	Azure Multi-Factor Authentication (Discontinued)	Azure StorSimple
Likelihood to Recommend	Discontinued Products If your solution falls within their standard use case or you have Office 365 - then it makes total sense. If you need a lot of customization or have a really specific business process that causes you to deviate from the standard flow it usually makes more sense to create a custom solution Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft Onsite storage needs and backing up to Azure. Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
Pros	Discontinued Products Ease of use Interoperability Industry standard Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft Performance via the SSD drives. Writes back to our Private Cloud via Azure. Easy to Admin via Web client interface. Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
Cons	Discontinued Products It can be difficult to work with when deviating off the standard use cases Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft Additional fail-over functionality Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Discontinued Products No answers on this topic	Microsoft If I wanted to use just onsite storage the StorSimple device is already paid for. Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Discontinued Products Honestly, they are very similar as is much of their offerings. It really comes down to which ecosystem are you already invested in? It doesn't make a lot of sense to try and interop with every cloud vendor - pick one and use them. While there used to be substantial differences in the cloud platforms, they are at basic parity now Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft Easy to use and highly compatible with our MSFT Hyper-V environment Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
Return on Investment	Discontinued Products Overall, it's a really good value compared to building a custom solution that you have to maintain Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft Great Folks on the MSFT Implementation team Great value on year 2 Incentivized Scott Lerner Director of IT Read full review
