"EFS is flexible."

"What I like most about Microsoft Azure Object Storage is that you have many ways to access it."
"We can do data queries easily."
"Microsoft Azure Object Storage offers hassle-free usage. It is easy to configure."
"Microsoft Azure Object Storage is an easy-to-use and stable solution."

"It could be better in connecting with Windows Server instances."
"We have experienced a data copy bottleneck with the AZ copy using Microsoft Azure Object Storage, this should improve. It has high CPU consumption. There are a couple of ways to copy files fast, we have tried a few ways. Other than AZ copy, we can use Azure Fluent Storage, which also takes a lot of time to copy files. The AZ copy is faster but it takes a lot of time and CPU operations."

"The cost of support is always expensive."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved."
"Microsoft Azure Object Storage needs to improve stability and cloud user interface."
