Positive

The initial setup is straightforward. Two developers and one architect were enough for the deployment. The maintenance is easy. 

Microsoft provides fair pricing. 

If somebody is really looking to adopt a solution like this, this is the best option to go.

I use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for some web applications.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it makes it easy for users to access web applications like Visio while not being complex like AWS at the same time.

The pricing of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings. From an improvement perspective, I wish for the solution to offer users an increased storage capacity at a cheaper price.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for a few months.

I rate the solution's stability eight to nine out of ten. The solution's stability is good.

It is a scalable solution.

There are almost 1,000 users of the solution in my institution.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

I think that there was a third-party involvement required during the solution's deployment phase.

Right now, I have opted for the student subscription plan, for which Microsoft charges me around 100 USD. The pricing of the solution depends on the solution's usage.

I recommend the solution to those who plan to use it. It is a cloud-based solution that is easy to deploy, easy to access, and provides users with more features compared to other clouds like AWS and GCP.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

I use Cosmos DB for geolocation identification.

If you pass by a market on the street, it sends me your location. My application will then send you a personalized notification about relevant products you can buy at the market.

The best feature is the velocity of making queries. 

I would like to see better documentation for this solution. 

The pricing of the solution should be reduced. 

I have been using Cosmos DB for one year. 

I would rate stability an eight out of ten. 

I would rate scalability a five out of ten. 

I would rate technical support a ten out of ten. 

The initial setup is straightforward. It's very easy to start a function or application with Azure. 

The solution is very expensive. 

I would overall rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for faster databases.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is scalable with multiple master files. The performance of the solution is also good.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB's pricing model is complicated, which people don't understand. So, the pricing model should be improved.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for five years.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a stable solution.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a highly scalable solution, and 15 to 20 people use the solution in my organization.

I rate Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB’s technical support an eight out of ten. They do take some time to get to the root of a problem.

Positive

The initial setup is straightforward and needs a few tools to upload.

We have had an ROI with the solution.

The pricing model of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a bit complex.

We are using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB as a cloud-based solution. Two admins and one manager are required for the deployment and maintenance of the solution.

New users must keep an eye on its pricing models and configure them properly.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB an eight out of ten.

Primarily, people do not have a clear understanding of the cloud and cloud services. Customers are a little bit scared about taking their data onto the cloud, and they think and they assume that it is not safe. So we just make them understand that databases or services on the cloud are more secure than on-premises infrastructure.

The performance point can be improved because when we run a search query on our on-premises machine and develop connectivity, a response comes in. But sometimes, the response gets delayed, and it can be due to network latency or something else we are yet to figure out.

Performance and high availability are two features I want to be added in the next release because that is the basic requirement of customers. Mostly, we have customers with the bank and banking institutions, and they want their databases perfectly integrated with the high availability feature.

I have been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for less than a year.

It is a stable product. I would give it an eight out of ten. 

It is a quite scalable product. I give it a nine out of ten. There are more than ten users using this product. 

The initial setup was difficult. I would give it a six or seven out of ten.

The pricing depends on the budget allocated to the client; for some, it can be high, and for some not high. But mostly, when the prices are moderate, they are not very high. I would rate it a seven out of ten.

It's a highly scalable, highly robust, and very user-friendly solution. It is easy to set up; the most important point is that it is on a cloud. The solution is also very easy to deploy. Only some connectivity features need to be developed.

I give it an eight out of ten.

The company is using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for business intelligence information, specifically for demand management.

What I like about Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is that it's easy to do data ingestion and use the data in different applications. If you talk about business intelligence such as the Power BI tool, it's easy to connect because both are Microsoft products. With Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, it's easy to connect and do data ingestion.

At the moment, because I'm still new in terms of using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, I don't have any feedback regarding areas for improvement in the product. So far, it has met all the expectations and needs of my company.

It would be nice to have more options to ingest the data, for example, more file options or more search options. Currently, you can use JSON, but if there were other file types you can use for data ingestion, that would be nice. This is the additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

I've been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for the past six months.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a stable product.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is a scalable product.

We have a partnership with Microsoft, so the response time of the technical support team for Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is really good at the moment.

Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB was easy to set up.

I've been using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB, a cloud DB solution. It's deployed in a cloud environment, on a public cloud with security for ourselves.

My company is a partner of Microsoft and also a reseller.

My advice to people looking into implementing Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is that it would be good for them to use, specifically if they are looking for a NoSQL database to ingest the data and do data discovery using the data in a BI tool. It's easy to ingest the data and work with the data in Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB and understand that, because it is not a SQL database, which means it's not as structured. You can add data, and then do a data discovery, and use it the best way for you. I would recommend Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

My rating for Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is eight out of ten.

My current title is that of a Solution Sales Architect.

The biggest benefit of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is the general cloud model that Azure gives you. It provides more flexibility from a cost and data perspective. The solution is reasonable. Microsoft gives the best security solutions with zero trust protection.

With Azure, you can start small and grow as you need.

I provide architect solutions on top of Azure. A couple of features that would help me in architectural solutions would be customizable architecture or customizable documentation, which both Microsoft Azure and Microsoft Teams can provide. I can easily pick and choose a couple of architecture and merge them. This would be a very helpful feature for me in my role.

I have had five years of experience working with Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB.

This solution is stable. I rarely receive concerns from my clients that they are facing any downtime or that some solutions or configurations are not working.

Azure cloud is very much scalable however, you do need to consider your database. If I am scaling the product, the traffic will increase and the database also has to be optimized in that way. 

My application is static, so it can be scaled to infinity, but the same cannot be done with the database. The database needs to be sufficient to get the load directly. I cannot go ahead and directly deploy a database with another skill functionality as I have to do some manual effort with downtime involved.

From a scalability perspective, the key database has to be optimized in a better way that can support auto-scaling architecture or scalability architecture.

The initial setup of Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB is straightforward.

Azure is a pay as you go subscription. Each month you utilize the solution and at the end of the month, based upon your utilization, you will get a report and invoice. It depends on the architecture and the services being used, how they are deployed and what the stories are. It is variable.

My general advice to anyone looking to implement Microsoft Azure would be to start small. When you see your application increase or your traffic increase on site, you can slowly scale. 

I would rate the solution a seven out of 10 overall.
