Find out in this report how the two Hybrid Cloud Computing Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the ease of deployment for services such as SSH, creating a web site, and Azure billing services to measure the consumption of resources."
"The beauty of Azure is that most of the features are easily accessible. It is user-friendly. Almost all resources in Azure are very easily accessible. For example, you can access a virtual machine, and you can scale it up. You can go ahead with different infrastructure-as-a-service in Azure for the platform or for the cloud. Different levels of development could be done using it."
"The user interface is nice and very simple to use."
"The most valuable feature is the OCR, which I use for reading PDFs."
"The most valuable feature is IaaS."
"This solution is highly scalable, with both direct and indirect users numbering over fifty thousand within my business."
"It's more reliable, secure, and easy to deploy. It's much more stable as a platform."
"If a user wants to upgrade Office 365 from any of the packages, there is no disruption happening during migration, and the data is kept safe. There's no loss of data."
"It's a private solution, mainly. But with VMware on AWS, the best part is the ease of migration from VMware to VMware."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"I feel that Azure Stack has so many different variables which are not very clear...In general, the initial setup phase of Azure Stack is an area with concern that needs improvement."
"It might be beneficial if Microsoft could introduce a more cost-effective data lake feature within their product."
"I would like to see better support for containers."
"The setup for Azure becomes more complex when you have multiple users and multiple organizations using the same solution, but this is to be expected."
"For some years, Azure has been working on Synapse. It's their big footprint on the analytics stack. It's a little bit heavy right now in the sense that there are too many components and it's too complex."
"I would like to see the AI side come to one hundred percent in the near future."
"Azure Stack is an expensive product that should be made more cost-effective."
"As opposed to AWS, Azure is a costly solution. It's on par with AWS more than anything else."
"The platform's cost could be reduced."
