Featured Reviews

Rafath Noor - PeerSpot reviewer
Lead DevOps Engineer at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
Cloud platform has supported reliable growth and collaboration but customer support still needs improvement
In my opinion, the best features Microsoft Azure offers are the scalable solutions and serverless solution, Platform as a Service and Software as a Service. There are categorized services I can get. Based on my need, I can use and get most of those things. Regarding Microsoft Azure's AI capabilities, I think the governance and security are fine and the AI is consistent and I was able to get reliable outputs. Governance and security-wise, I was also satisfied with the performance, encryption-wise and the data transmission, transparency-wise. Regarding Microsoft Azure's AI capabilities, output-wise, the outputs are very much reliable, so I can depend on those things. There's nothing more to add and I am satisfied with the accuracy because it's more than 90% accuracy that I can find. That's fine for me.
Famir Shah - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Operating Officer at Merchuian Solutions
Performance and availability of services need improvement
NTT Cloud needs to analyze feature offerings from AWS and Azure. Additionally, they should do marketing and be more vocal about the services. They should further ensure the availability of the services as well. I rate NTT Cloud a three out of ten. In comparison, AWS and Azure are easier to fit into the environment in terms of reliability.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have found the scalability to be good."
"The feature of the product that has been most impactful for our company's operations stems from the fact that everything is on a single dashboard or a single page where users can monitor and manage everything related to the product."
"The feature that we like best is integration with Active Directory."
"The pricing is great, as we only pay for what we use."
"It is a flexible solution that is straightforward to use."
"We like how accessible it is to the end-user, not just the engineers or developers."
"Monthly billing convenience reduced cost overheads up to 70 percent."
"Its ability to scale is most valuable, as there are certain periods of the year when we are busier, and we are able to scale up and scale down with Azure depending upon our needs."
"The pricing and services that surround the solution are great, and if we need to find a partner in a country where they do not have a cloud, they will help us find that partner, which is a level of service that solutions such as Amazon and Oracle do not offer."
"The initial setup process is more accessible than one of its competitors."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better integration with other products."
"Its pricing should be better. In terms of features, I am yet to explore the whole solution, and the current features seem okay."
"Because it has a lot of features, a person just coming into Microsoft Azure might feel that it is a bit complex."
"Most of the challenges we encounter when integrating Microsoft Azure with existing IT infrastructure are related to the lack of documentation when they release new products on the Microsoft side."
"They need to make storage easy and offer more interconnectivity between solutions."
"While Microsoft Azure is user-friendly, some of the other cloud products I use are more user-friendly."
"There could be more documentation and video tutorials to incorporate each and every feature. This way one can easily get the knowledge and implement it."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"NTT Cloud’s performance could be better."
"The solution needs to provide a bigger portfolio of services. The solution could use more advanced monitoring."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs for Enterprise are on an annual basis."
"The pricing is fine."
"I am currently on a pay-as-you-go subscription and my customers are going to be on a three-year contract. For what is offered in the three-year package it is quite reasonably priced."
"I pay for a yearly subscription."
"It's a pay-as-you-go subscription."
"It is affordable, but its subscription price could be cheaper."
"It is paid on a per-use basis."
"The solution does not offer very many free services which can become expensive. We are on an annual license."
"I rate the product’s pricing a four out of ten."
