Overall Satisfaction with Azure Bastion

I use Azure Bastion mainly to connect to our Active Directory Domain Controller servers for fast, secure and relaible connection. Azure Bastion is very easy to use, directly through Azure Portals, and it is web based making it usable in many other platforms withough using a Remote Desktop Connection. Te only issue is copy past feature. It is hard challenging to copy and past from your local machine to Bastion VM. More features are needed for this!
  • Fast browser based connection
  • Secure and Reliable
  • Ease of use
  • Flexibility in copy paste feature (resticts it)
  • More control during the boot of VMs
  • Browser based connection
  • Speed
  • Security
  • Very positive as it enabled our admins to connect to servers of our clients from any devices
  • Security and speed
  • Copy Paste needs to be solved
Bastion is like one of the best feature of Azure portal as it enables a very easy browser based connection to your VM's in your Azure subscription. It is easier and faster to use RDP .
