Easy to access, removes the need for physical servers, and connects well to virtual machines
Pros and Cons
  • "The connection to virtual machines is very useful."
  • "The solution acts as a dedicated server and we have implemented multiple software, users can easily access everything from there, and it's a cost-effective solution as we don't want to purchase any servers because everything is on the cloud, which is the main advantage for the company."
  • "You are charged for retrieving your own data."
  • "When we retrieve that data from the cloud, they require some amount of money. That is the main drawback of this cloud solution. You are charged for retrieving your own data."

What is our primary use case?

We have implemented it in one of our ITITS firms. We use it simply for IT management and optimization. We use it to connect virtual machines.

How has it helped my organization?

The solution acts as a dedicated server and we have implemented multiple software. Users can easily access everything from there. It's a cost-effective solution as we don't want to purchase any servers. Everything's on the cloud. That is the main advantage for the company.

What is most valuable?

The connection to virtual machines is very useful. We can connect and implement multiple software within a single platform.

What needs improvement?

This is a cloud-based solution. When we are dumping data into the cloud, it's free of cost. When we retrieve that data from the cloud, they require some amount of money. That is the main drawback of this cloud solution. You are charged for retrieving your own data.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution since 2018. It's been about three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is very stable. It's a Microsoft product. They do a lot of R&D. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. 

The number of users depends on the licensing arrangement. 

At this time, the solution is used extensively in our company. We do plan to increase usage and add more licenses. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is good. They have a lot of patience. They have technical assistance in different territories as well. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is easy and we can configure it very well in a straightforward manner. In a single user, we can implement and configure everything in ten to 15 minutes. 

You only need one or two people to maintain the solution if you have under 500 users. 

What about the implementation team?

We handle the setup with our own team.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

In terms of licensing, you can get a minimum number of 10 users in a license. We can upgrade to 100or more. If we purchase a 200 license, that covers 200 users. The licenses are based on the number of users.

The solution is not expensive; when we retrieve the data, however, they will charge per MB. You also need a license to work with the product itself.

What other advice do I have?

We are Microsoft partners.

I'd advise users to consider the solution. As a cloud product, physical servers are not required. It's very convenient that I can use it from my desktop or laptop. there is no dedicated device needed. The only thing that is required is an internet connection.

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.
