Overall Satisfaction with Azure Virtual Machines
I build backup servers and repositories using the Azure VMs x86 infrastructure to backup clients.
- Easy and fast to build.
- A lot of features to manage and expand the VMs.
- Intuitive UI makes you learn fast.
- To swap an OS disk has some requirements, so not all disks are available to easily swap.
- Would be good if the public IP assignments were fixed and would not change over time, by default.
- Nothing else i can think of.
- it is not too expensive to run VMs but i can't tell about the numbers.
- i don't manage the financial part.
- I do recommend companies to use it, instead of buying their own hardware.
- IBM Power System Virtual Server, Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Zadara Cloud Platform
Azure has a better interface than its competitors like Amazon and IBM. It is more intuitive and easier to use. It also has more features like connection troubleshooting, boot diagnostics, and running remote commands.
