Ask HN: Why do you use Azure?
1 comments
Clearer dashboard, much clearer and more complete docs (compared to AWS I've been working with).
Also, I'm really a fan of DevOps, the dashboard is really complete and versatile, and allows for more serious planning than just issues.
I don't have trouble working with Azure, including for user management and access rights, where it's always been a hell in AWS to learn.
About GCP, I can't compare, they never accepted my bank credentials.

In general though I find Azure quite horrible to work with. One of the things we use from azure is azure DevOps - which is one of the most unfortunate things I have seen in some time. Gitlab's free offering is vastly superior and I don't think you will have to go far to find something that is a substantially better choice than Azure DevOps.
In general Azure seems to be quite rickety, with VMs sometimes taking more than 10 minutes to delete. The consideration for linux is also severely wanting when it comes to their tooling.
I have worked with AWS and GCP, both are significantly less painful to work with. I don't get why Azure is even a player in the market with how sub par their offering is.
