"Azure services like EDM and Batch are all famous, but one of the most popular services for development is Azure Functions, especially the PaaS option. Depending on a customer's environment, they can go for the PaaS."
"The most valuable features I have found to be the auto-scaling feature and the interface."
"Microsoft Azure has a lot of useful features. They have databases, application services, PaaS solutions, such as platform and infrastructure services. The virtual machines' functions and services are good."
"In terms of managing and configuring infrastructures, Azure is fairly good."
"The advantage of Microsoft Azure is its simplicity. It's easy to launch a project. However, the problem with this kind of solution is the reliability for the customers. You have to be sure to stay with Microsoft."

"It is a stable solution...Since it is a cloud solution, I can say it is a scalable product."
"Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is about as stable as the other CSPs, but Oracle Cloud is more common in Korea."
"Our recommendations are good, and we also have a bidding platform that is helpful for managed service providers. This platform can save customers up to 2-3 weeks in billing time, from 25 days to 3-4 days. We have two products: a basic product and a cloud optimization product. Both products help customers improve the performance and cost-efficiency of their cloud environments."

"Technical support needs to be better."
"The solution is too expensive."
"Microsoft should have one package for all their solutions in one place to be found."

"The customization and the requests put through were not flexible enough."
"Specific to the Oracle Cloud; while they have been able to showcase inbuilt features for Oracle applications, what doesn't really come across clearly is what happens when you want to host, work with, or integrate with applications outside of the Oracle stack."
"Since our Oracle products are on premise we cannot get the premier Oracle products."
"Pricing could be improved considering competition and market conditions."
"Sometimes when we install something, we need to partition and maybe rebuild the index. This can cause some issues for performance. In the future, I would like to see more stability and fewer bugs."
"The solution needs to improve the discovery and assessment of the existing infrastructure."
"Lacking in additional PaaS services."
