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."
"Debugging using Application Insights is a valuable feature."
"The product is easy to maintain and deploy."
"Azure App Service is too easy to setup and appropriate for developers with no knowledge in infrastructure."
"App Services gives a lot of flexibility for us to bring data from any data source and push it to enterprise services, which we want to consume."
"The best part is how quickly you can deploy the solution."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure App Service is the automatic upgrades."
"The best feature is scalability, which allows you to target potential clients worldwide by connecting the application to a local server. This makes the application readily accessible, and the response time will be much better."
"I'm a decision-maker, not a technician. From my perspective, the most significant advantage is that Azure is a one-stop shop. Everything we needed was included in the Microsoft Agreement. During COVID, it was the most convenient and most straightforward decision."
 

Cons

"Customer support for AWS App Studio is good but not very exceptional."
"There is always room for improvement price-wise."
"Extended uptime and improved speed would be beneficial for both development purposes and the free tier of the service. Currently, the uptime is limited to a few hours per day, which could be increased to provide more continuous and efficient usage."
"The tool's UI is an area of concern that needs improvements."
"I would like to see some improvement in the UI/UX design, to make navigation of this solution more user friendly. For example, it could contain more explicit information on each of the features."
"Microsoft Azure App Service needs some improvement in the scaling area."
"If you are not using the product properly, then it can cost you a lot of money. Hence, you need to make sure that you choose the services wisely. You need to make sure that you have a budget and have some alerts associated with it. The tool's cost can easily go high if you don't consider these things properly. You need to review your existing subscription."
"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."
"If you're on the cloud, you just get a web interface without much detail for additional configuration or the authority to configure the root or system-level configuration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate this solution as a four."
"I rate Microsoft Azure App Service a seven out of ten for pricing."
"The cost depends on the App Service plan that you choose. There are a number of tiers available."
"The price of the solution is high overall."
"The cost is reasonable."
"The pricing for Microsoft Azure App Service is per hour, and you're billed per hour, and it depends on the plan you're using. Each plan can host up to a minimum of four to eight applications at a time, so the pricing is quite okay with how I use Microsoft Azure App Service currently, but with the little testing I've done, I saw that some other regions tend to be costlier than others. If the same SLE is delivered for all services, there should be a way to make the prices parallel across regions. Having more transparent pricing for Microsoft Azure App Service would give customers more comfort."
"The pricing and cost of this solution depends on the use and needs of a business."
"I would rate the product's pricing a five out of ten and is subscription based."
