"The thing with Azure is that everything is plug and play. Just make a few clicks and you can make everything work."

"By using Azure Cognitive Services, we’re enabling our customers to automate processes they couldn’t before."

"We’ve added a lot of automation with Power Automate as our workflow engine. We’ve drastically reduced manual work, even on complex workflows, which is fantastic."

“Because of regulatory requirements, we had to serve our APIs within EU boundaries, which was a requirement that Microsoft, with two datacenters in Europe, could easily fulfill, and we had a list of privacy and security requirements in our RFP that Microsoft also satisfied. Microsoft Azure’s stance on privacy and security is well known and meets the tight EU privacy rules, so we’re happy that we’re in safe hands with Azure API Management.”

"The speed of applications has also increased dramatically thanks to Windows 10: many computers now boot almost twice as fast. Providing that all the students have AD/Office 365 university accounts, and each lesson in a computer classroom starts with all the students simultaneously logging into the system, switching to Windows 10 allowed us to increase teaching efficiency by a couple of percentage points thanks to the faster booting process alone."

An important aspect in managing the Financial University IT infrastructure – in terms of managing a large park of machines – is the overall change of approach to the process of transition to a new version of Windows. Now we have such concepts as deployment branches and circles, which allow us to optimize risks and versions of deployment for different computer groups. In addition, Windows 10 has a different schedule for upgrades, additional functionality and new versions: now they are published 2-3 times per year and not once every few years as before. These changes automates the process of OS deployment and upgrade in large organizations using new, convenient and flexible tools with the control of upgrade process depending on the different computer groups. Previously, transitioning to the new OS created a huge problem for an organization, because we used the laborious manual clean install procedure – or such tools as System Center, if it were available in an organization.”

"After Windows 10 was launched, devices of this type became even more efficient, since the new OS’s interface automatically switches between the tablet and the desktop modes.”

"Since I generally liked Windows 10, I also installed it – together with Office 2016 – on my MacBook Pro 2013 laptop. During my vacation, I wrote a chapter of my dissertation on this MacBook. In my experience, I’ve seen cases where Window 10 provided better compatibility with the hardware of some PC brands – which makes an upgrade process much easier, together with the Windows 7 interface, more familiar to the users compared to Windows 8 interface.”

"The efficiency and scalability Azure grants us in terms of our services to students will be a big help in achieving that mission."

“This Microsoft solution perfectly supports the mission of Habib University, which strives to produce critically-conscious, ambitious, and determined graduates who are able to build a name for themselves individually, as well as positively impact their society.”

"When customers go online and order a car from us, we’ll go and purchase the vehicle and they’ll get it in three weeks. We use Microsoft technology to help us create this layer of solutions."

"By using Azure Batch to handle infrastructure setup, our consultants have significantly more time each month to do billable client work."

"Azure is like an extension of our datacenter; we can move workloads gradually and gracefully into the cloud at our own pace."

"The IT landscape is getting a lot easier for us. The big shift is that we're not talking IT anymore with our customers. We're talking business with them. Operations Management Suite helps take care of the basic needs, so we can now talk about more interesting scenarios—projects on the Internet of Things and machine learning."

"The adoption of Microsoft’s cloud technology will help raise student and staff productivity as we work towards accomplishing our human resources development mission across all levels."
