"I like the fact that there is built-in Power BI. Both are Microsoft tools. So, you can incorporate dashboard capabilities."
"The solution is easy to implement and easy to use."
"Azure enables us to create a staging environment through to a production environment in an easier way and then get the code and run that."
"My team likes the integration that Microsoft Azure DevOps has with GitHub and Microsoft Teams. The solution is well integrated with other Microsoft tools in one place, it is very good."
"The aspect that requires attention is the user management component. When integrating with BitLabs and authenticating through GitLab, there are specific features we desire.

Allocating different privileges to users is a time-consuming process for us."
