We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's easy to use.""Microsoft Azure Object Storage offers hassle-free usage. It is easy to configure.""AzCopy is probably the best feature. It's a scripting app or a scripting function. Whether it's a Linux batch or a PowerShell script, you can essentially just send a file via a line of code with a specific key.""Microsoft Azure Object Storage is flexible and has all the features we need.""The features of Microsoft Azure Object Storage that are most valuable are the ones providing encryption. Access is more controlled using private endpoints and SaaS token keys. Many access control features exist.""With Microsoft Azure Object Storage, they are an open market.""The solution is stable. It works fine for us.""The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure Object Storage is its ease of use."

More Microsoft Azure Object Storage Pros →

"One key feature is that you can make buckets private, requiring pre-authentication and using a specific URL for access. Additionally, the buckets are encrypted by default. The flexibility of public or private buckets and how you grant access are vital security features.""The most valuable features of the tool are scalability and security.""The solution's most valuable features are its speed, unlimited space, and simplicity of use."

Cons
"I would like to have out-of-the-box connectors to make integration with other products easier.""One of the things that are currently important is consistency. To achieve this, another database called Cosmos DB is available. We want to have a similar consistency to the one in Cosmos DB but at a cheaper price.""A more comprehensive training option is needed.""The cost of support is always expensive.""Uploading files from the UI has presented some issues. When editing work and once you delete a file, it takes some time to recreate the same file.""The password retrieval process was very difficult.""Microsoft Azure Object Storage has had a number of failures last week due to the lack of hardware available to support the resources. However, it was only for a short time, approximately two days.""We experienced an outage issue recently, which affected its overall stability and reliability."

More Microsoft Azure Object Storage Cons →

"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks.""Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security.""Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost is based on the amount of traffic and we paid approximately 18 lakh Rupees ($25,000 USD) last year."
  • "For the cloud, you get charges every day if you are going to download anything, besides the cost for storage those charges are always there."
  • "The cost of this solution is high compared to others, although there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
  • "The cost should be reduced to make it more competitive."
  • "Pricing is always confusing for all Microsoft products. For this solution, they do provide the estimates, but it is not easy to guess the exact amount that we will be billed."
  • "We have a separate package and pay extra for additional technical support."
  • "The licensing cost of Microsoft Azure Object Storage is monthly. We have two types of licenses. One is the EA enterprise license and the other is a CSP license."
  • "It has a pay-as-you-go model. So, you are only paying for what you store. It's an attractive model. You don't pay for a set; you pay for what you actually use."
