"The interface is available in the edit portal."
"The ability to operate the product with scripting is excellent."
"Azure Bastion makes it easy to provide quick virtual machine access to our customers."
"As an Azure consultant, for me, it is the best way to give the administrator access as you can manage the permission - including who can access Bastion."
"The product's setup is easy."
"The connection to virtual machines is very useful."
"It provides all the security to us. Without getting on the internet, we can access our servers. We can access our desktop through our web browser. We don't need to run the mstsc command and login to the VM. All those things are not required."
"The most significant advantage lies in its runbook features, particularly beneficial for our infrastructure team."
"The installation is easy."
"The solution offers so many great resources, it makes them a powerhouse in the market."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The protocol speed could be faster."
"You are charged for retrieving your own data."
"We are not able to copy and paste files directly into the server over the patch host. We have to transfer files over to Azure Storage."

"The solution breaks down sometimes."
"When you have a boot issue on Windows, you cannot use Azure Bastion to fix it. You have to use the Azure console or the VM console, and it is very limited."
"While general support is valuable, having a detailed breakdown of the specific issues would contribute to a more streamlined and efficient resolution process."
"The price could be a bit lower."
"We did not like SolarWinds because it was not able to communicate between UPSA and our accounting system. They should have better integration."
