More AgilePoint Pros →

"It allows you to host your App Service on Azure and provides the ability to bypass online.""The program is stable and we've had no technical issues so far.""What I found most valuable in Microsoft Azure App Service is that it's a PaaS. I also like that it supports Docker and multiple frameworks so that you can work on Java, Ruby on Rails, PHP, and Python.""It's a platform as a service, so we don't have to manage the infrastructure to hold the websites.""The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure App Service is autoscaling and resource grouping. Additionally, the integration works well, it is easy to do.""One of our reasons to use the product is its cloud service. Our usage is mainly on the cloud and we like the benefits that we can get from the cloud. You can easily do the literal shift of your application easily.

Cons
"It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer.""They should add more information about functionality.""Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes.""The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier.""While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."

More AgilePoint Cons →

"The pricing is average. It could be lower.""Customers love it when a solution is affordable, but with Microsoft Azure App Service, you can start and stop it, and when you stop it, it won't be reachable and it won't be available, yet you're still being charged for it. You'll still be charged even if the solution isn't accessible because Microsoft Azure App Service runs on a shared virtual machine that keeps on running, so if there's a way to work this out, it'll be a great improvement to only pay for what you use. The solution should have no hidden cost and no extra charge when it's stopped. This is what needs improvement in Microsoft Azure App Service.""The cost management of this solution could be better. We only receive estimations.""Microsoft Azure App Service could improve by having better integration and connectivity with other platforms. The solution has good integration with other large companies' solutions but there are smaller service platforms companies where there could be integrated better.""I would like to see faster adoption and templates that we can use.""App Service sometimes becomes very slow to respond, and it can be difficult to find the issue causing this.""The solution needs better integration capabilities on the network side.""There is still room for improvement in terms of the maturity of the solution. Everything is available that we need, but the issue is that they are still upgrading. Even though they have Azure applications and automation services, they still need to mature more. There are many things that need to mature and the road map for this is quite long, taking another three to eight years to have a mature solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
  • "I think the price is reasonable."
  • "Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
  • "It is more cost-effective than local tools."
  • More AgilePoint Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Azure doesn't cost as much as other services."
  • "Less than USD $100 per month."
  • "We have no complaints about the pricing."
  • "Azure App Service is expensive compared to its competitors, especially its cloud-only version."
  • "Where there are different customer sizes, some customers consume $5,000 US dollars per month. I have some customers who pay and consume more than $20,000 US dollars per month, for example. It is determined by customer sizes and requirements, which vary from month to month."
  • "The pricing and cost of this solution depends on the use and needs of a business."
  • "On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate this solution as a four."
  • "The pricing for this solution is set in tiers, with the overall cost depending on the features that are required. I would advise organizations to have a detailed look at the functions they need, to ensure that they are in the correct pricing tier."

    Microsoft Azure App Service’s versatility offers organizations that use it a great deal. It is a very complete, ready-to-use, out-of-the-box mobile development solution that gives users the capabilities that they need to design their mobile applications with the greatest level of ease. In addition, users can employ the cloud to scale operations so that their applications have the proper amount of space to run at the time that they need it.

    Andriy L., the Azure practice leader at a computer software company, writes, “I like that it's a ready-to-use, out-of-the-box solution that provides all of the necessary functions for customers, such as codes that can be quickly switched from the production version, or test and DEV versions to production.”
