Pros
"The solution can scale.""The most valuable features of this solution are the easy deployment, the scalability, and the Azure maintenance.""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. You can jump into the cloud very quickly.""Enroll in some kind of formal training, not from Microsoft, but from a partner, and keep up with the change because the Azure platform changes a lot.""Some of the features I found valuable are auto-scaling, SSL integration, cost-effectiveness, and the certificates provided by Microsoft Azure App Service.""The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure App Service is customization. It provides the building block from its modularity. You can add what you need with the appropriate code.""It's a platform as a service, so we don't have to manage the infrastructure to hold the websites.""The primary and standout feature is ease of deployment."

"I am impressed with the product's automation which makes everything easy.""QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support.""It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments.""I run my own business and the solution allows me to invoice and pay for additional resources. It has helped me in terms of invoicing, quoting, and doing recruitment measures.""This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data.""It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us.""There's a lot of stability in QuickBase...I really appreciate the processing part of QuickBase, especially considering how we're able to get information in real time instead of having to wait.""The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."

Cons
"In terms of improvement, the technical support could be better.""The logging and monitoring could improve in Microsoft Azure App Service.""If you're on the cloud, you just get a web interface without much detail for additional configuration or the authority to configure the root or system-level configuration.""From an IoT use case perspective, we're all good, however, we should have additional plugins.""The pricing is average. It could be lower.""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.""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.""I am new to the intervention and I find it difficult to find my way around the user interface. I have my own learning tool. However, it could be simpler for new users."

More Microsoft Azure App Service Cons →

"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness.""Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility.""The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work.""The product works constantly to modernize the platform and they have made quite a lot of strides in that. I would like them to add additional features that would help us make API calls.""I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate.""The dashboard is not organized.""The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items.""Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."
