It offers a seamless experience while connecting Virtual networks and Workloads via Azure Hub.
Lot of connectivity options present - site to site VPN/Express route etc.
Very easy connectivity and migration with on-premise sites and Azure Hub.

Learning and managing Azure Virtual WAN has quite a steep learning curve.
Flexibility and solutions are limited to the available feature set compared to a classic hub and spoke.
Sometimes can cost very high if not used efficiently.

Provides a rich feature set and automation.
All in one solution/service provided by Azure for connectivity, security, and monitoring.
