They deployed and maintained our cloud infrastructure.
There should be the improved ability to speak directly to resources over the phone, rather than just through tickets and emails. Logicworks provides DevOps-as-a-Service functionality and is not really a software solution. My only issue with them is that it is difficult to talk to anyone live, as they manage all their service tickets through emails or their ticket portal. Perhaps, an enhancement that could be a button on the portal which could connect you via a web conference with the resource assigned to the ticket, would be helpful.

For Microsoft Azure improvement, they need to enhance their support system. The first level of support should be improved in terms of quality and response time. They need more technical support at the first level, as there are currently only one or two technical people among five to ten staff members at this level. They should ensure that the first level support is more technical because we normally provide services to technical users ourselves. When an issue arises, it usually escalates to the second or third level. When facing first level support, they may have limited knowledge and only collect screenshots to forward to their seniors. They should ensure that the first level support is aligned with L2 and L3 to better assist us, especially since we mention in the ticket that our issues are related to specific problems and require that sort of support.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The stable environments, outsourcing of IT allowing us to keep very light headcount for the DevOps are the most valuable features of this solution."
"We really like the infrastructure as a service and the data center as a service solution functionality."
"The application services are the most valuable in Microsoft Azure. I'm not using them directly but I am using the function and the web applications. I don't need to pay a lot for the maintenance. I do not need to have a DevOps employee."
"Its ability to scale is most valuable. There are certain periods of the year when we are busier, and we're able to scale up and scale down with Azure depending upon our needs."
"The most valuable features of Azure for me are its ease of management, recoverable virtual machines with backup support, excellent customer support, and user-friendly interface."
"Azure Active Directory: Has powerful security and auditing capabilities that we use to secure all our apps."
"It's easy to use, and it's scalable. If we want to grow our product more, we can do it."
"The solution is fantastic, with Teams, the works."
"The product is highly stable."
 

Cons

"My only issue with them is that it is difficult to talk to anyone live, as they manage all their service tickets through emails or their ticket portal."
"While Microsoft Azure is user-friendly, some of the other cloud products I use are more user-friendly."
"I would like to see more automation and AI with the cloud to help the clients understand more about their clients, their history data, and their predictive analytics. This would help them better manage their clients."
"You eventually end up with a large collection of 'bits' all working together, I find it hard to be able to create a logical 'box' and put all the 'bits' that need to be in that box / application into the one place."
"The solution is less mature than AWS."
"It is constantly updating. There are weekly releases, sometimes daily releases, and there should be fewer that are consolidated into one."
"We work with Azure, which is okay, but very clunky and complex."
"The solution must improve its pricing."
"We are looking for the Azure to get involved in the case of other applications, like the Java application."
