I feel that Microsoft Azure typically outperforms Google Cloud Platform in hybrid cloud capabilities, integration aspects, and, primarily, security compliance features. Azure offered superior integration with Microsoft's enterprise software ecosystem, and it's second to none in my opinion. This made it the natural choice for most, especially if heavily invested in Windows, Office 365, or Active Directory deployments. We chose Azure over GCP because we simply needed Windows workload support as a strong driver, more access to global regions, and let's not forget that most tech teams in an organization are Microsoft Certified, which makes skillset transfer from on-prem to cloud a minimal learning curve over shifting to a different provider.

Due to ongoing extensive developments, additional functionalities are continuously being added and improved. Many new functionalities are also being added that are future-oriented. AI is also getting an increasingly dominant integration as an option. And collaboration with other vendors is improving steadily. GitHub is also growing tremendously in offerings and works well with Microsoft.
