Rapid internal apps have transformed workflows and now automate approvals and order tracking
AWS App Studio could be strengthened with improved debugging and more advanced integration capabilities. From my perspective, the first improvement would be deeper customizations to provide more control over UI components and logic for complex use cases. It would be more helpful to have easier tracking of errors and understanding of workflow failures. If AWS App Studio could have version control support such as stronger Git-style versioning control and rollback capabilities, that would be a feature I personally miss. Additional improvements for AWS App Studio would include better documentation and tutorials. Some features, especially AI generation and integrations, need clearer step-by-step guides. Improved UX is also needed. The interface can feel slightly complex sometimes, so simplifying navigation and workflow would help new users. These changes would make onboarding smoother, and teams could use the platform more efficiently without trial and error.

When using a Linux App Service or containerized App Services, the logging is not as good as when using the Windows version. The Linux App Service should be more user-friendly, focusing on logging, troubleshooting, and similar features. With Microsoft Azure App Service, it is more difficult with Linux or other container solutions because there are many options. When creating an App Service, you can create it as Linux or Windows. After that, you can choose some stack or use Docker to container. When using Linux with container, the logging functionality is not as robust.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"After adopting AWS App Studio, I have reduced development time by almost 60 to 70 percent and improved workflow efficiency by almost 40 percent."
"The solution is very simple to set up."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to scale the application."
"It's a platform as a service, so we don't have to manage the infrastructure to hold the websites."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Azure App Service are its vertical and horizontal scaling, along with its ability to throw a docker image."
"Ultimately it seems like it can do anything that you might be doing with a different tool or in a different location."
"The best part is how quickly you can deploy the solution."
"One valuable feature of Azure App Service for us is its integration with Azure DevOps, which we heavily rely on in our development process."
"Technical support is rapid and extremely helpful."
 

Cons

"Customer support for AWS App Studio is good but not very exceptional."
"Initially, there were some rare instances when the server went down because it was deployed on Linux."
"Having a surplus of tutorials from Microsoft, rather than relying solely on documentation or features from other sources like YouTube, can be beneficial."
"There has been some building of pipelines where we've had to test and redesign a little so if there were maybe some easier to setup guides or more template data flows that would be an improvement."
"From an IoT use case perspective, we're all good, however, we should have additional plugins."
"Microsoft Azure App Service has a lot of complexity because there are a lot of options and functionality. It is simple to become confused, there are many technical elements to learn before you can utilize the solution. If they could make the solution easier to use it would be a benefit."
"Sometimes we face problems, but those are technical problems in Microsoft, bugs or something doesn't work as expected, but that's normal."
"I am new to the intervention and I find it difficult to find my way around the user interface. I have my own learning tool. However, it could be simpler for new users."
"The outbound connectivity is not great but can be improved because, on virtual machines, the Microsoft Azure App Service uses four or five outbound IPs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I would rate the product's pricing a five out of ten and is subscription based."
"Azure doesn't cost as much as other services."
"I rate Microsoft Azure App Service a seven out of ten for pricing."
"Microsoft Azure App Service is an expensive platform, but it depends on the data ingestion. There's a pay-as-you-go plan and a savings plan for compute, but total costs depend on data ingestion and disk space. For high performance, security, and isolation, Microsoft offers a disk space of 1 TB, with a pay-as-you-go price of $40 per hour, if I'm not mistaken."
"The pricing for this solution is set in tiers, with the overall cost depending on the features that are required. I would advise organizations to have a detailed look at the functions they need, to ensure that they are in the correct pricing tier."
"We have no complaints about the pricing."
"Less than USD $100 per month."
"The cost is reasonable."
