I use it for. browser based systems for my own clients It's configured to make it very quick to build feature-rich systems. The only issue I would say is that they develop updates very quickly that are hard to keep up with. I have been using Alpha Anywhere for thirty years. It's stable, set up…

With regard to security, compliance, or governance features in Azure AI Foundry, this is something that we have started looking into, primarily using Microsoft Purview for our governance, data governance. There is this new module called DSPM for AI, and we are exploring it while trying to operationalize it with different policies and so forth, but we're still not where we want to be on the governance, AI governance side. It's a process and a path, and we are trying to work through that right now. Azure AI Foundry can be improved from the governance perspective, as a lot can be done. The promising part is the recent announcement on the Foundry control plane. A couple of days back, there was an announcement regarding it bringing in some of the gaps that were on the platform, so it's a really positive direction in terms of where it's going. More governance is what is lacking, but the control plane will really play a big role there.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's very flexible."
"The features of Azure AI Foundry that I appreciate the most include the containment of all the agents and the ability to see all agents in a single dashboard and to have access to all of them from one portal."
"The features of Azure AI Foundry that I appreciate the most include the model catalog and the capability to deploy all of these different models, especially now that they've added Anthropic, which was the big one that was missing."
"Azure AI Foundry has helped reduce the time taken for AI app and agent development cycles by approximately 50% for one use case."
"Having Azure AI Foundry as a tool has benefited our organization significantly because our team has five data scientists, and this type of tool makes everything much faster."
"Azure AI Foundry has affected our management of privacy, performance, and compliance primarily based on our location in the UK, where it is more focused on the region in terms of where that data is being processed and who has access to it, which is hopefully no one other than us."
"The most beneficial feature of Azure AI Foundry for enhancing customer experience is the ability to use Azure Functions to call things outside of Azure AI Foundry, making it more comprehensive as a feature."
"Azure AI Foundry has helped me reduce the time taken for AI app and agent development significantly because it takes over a lot of the infrastructure work of connecting to these models."
"The benefit of using Azure AI Foundry for the organization is saving time, so saving time and then making money—now that we have this, many people were not doing this because it took them so long to do that research, that has been fixed."
 

Cons

"It can be slow to develop, and it's repetitive."
"My experience with deploying Azure AI Foundry is that, at this point in time, given the limited capabilities available in Foundry, we built pro-code agents, hosted them, containerized them, and deployed them."
"The deployment process for Azure AI Foundry has been very challenging. There are many issues with policies, and because we have very stringent controls, we need to know exactly how Azure AI Foundry works before we can deploy it."
"Even though I have only been utilizing Azure AI Foundry for the past four months, I think the understanding between Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry is still somewhat unclear regarding which one to use when and why, and how they complement each other is a journey we are currently undertaking."
"Azure AI Foundry could be improved with better integration within all the other tools from Microsoft."
"I would appreciate it if Microsoft could improve Azure AI Foundry by releasing new features immediately because sometimes we have to wait for weeks or months to use them."
"Azure AI Foundry can be improved by adding educational features."
"Right now, because of the UI and the complexity of it, it is complicated and cumbersome, and I think figuring out how to simplify that would probably make it a faster process."
"My experience with Azure AI Foundry's pricing, setup cost, and licensing was a mess."
