We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Pantheon based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Azure is the compatibility with all of our Windows applications and other Microsoft technologies"
"To me, the most valuable Azure features are AKS, Cloud SQL, security, and account management."
"Provisioning a server is fast, taking only one or two minutes before it is ready."
"The incorporation of several kinds of storage, such as SSD Premium, enhanced the performance of machines."
"If you have large traffic amounts, Microsoft Azure will continue to provide our customers with the best storage experience."
"It is stable and scalable."
"There are a lot of valuable features in Microsoft Azure, such as Kubernetes, pipelines, and development environments."
"We have found the user interface to be intuitive. Microsoft is a master at UI."
"The product allows users to create multiple development environments."
"Pantheon has the most valuable workflow model."
"The level of authorization or authorization cascading can be improved. We have the most powerful admins and then we have sub-admins, but the level of authorization is not that easy to handle or manage."
"The price could be improved as well as the interface speed, and technical support."
"We like that they have the new capabilities, but sometimes they're deprecating capabilities faster than we can handle. If we had to improve it, we would want to stay on some of these older capabilities a bit longer."
"Customer services and support should be improved. If a user faces challenges in accessing Microsoft Azure, the support team takes time—it could be 24 to 48 hours—to resolve them. We need solutions in four to five hours. And there are business-critical issues where we need an immediate resolution."
"We need more security to be available on our smartphones and mobile devices."
"There are times when using a service in Microsoft Azure can be confusing because you have four or five options that do similar operations. It would be helpful if there was a clear decision tree around those features. Microsoft does provide a lot of decision trees around a lot of their services, but it's not for everything."
"I would like it if Microsoft communicated better about upcoming changes before they roll them out. Sometimes when Microsoft implements changes, they don't notify the users promptly enough. I would like to know about new features, especially Office 365."
"One area for enhancement could be in the realm of big data and unstructured data storage."
"Pantheon has the most valuable workflow model."
"The Multidev environment is very costly compared to other tools like AWS and GCP."
