3854 Microsoft Azure Testimonials

"Now our innovation team can quickly spin up test environments in Azure, thoroughly explore their ideas using huge amounts of comprehensive data, and then remove the environments just as easily afterward. This greatly lowers the barrier to innovation."

"The open platform aspect is huge. We develop for iOS, Android, and Windows platforms and Azure/VSTS is like a one-stop shop for us. Now that Azure supports Docker containers, I’m looking forward to further automating our build processes from the developer’s machine right through to production servers, thereby reducing the risk of any versioning problems."

"Workday is the data entry point for user data, and then we use Azure AD provisioning to sync and update information in Windows Server Active Directory. From that point, the Microsoft Identity Manager platform manages all the processes that use Windows Server Active Directory data."

"We have very few people who know Linux here, and that sometimes led to issues with system uptime. By using the managed PostgreSQL database in Azure, we don’t need to manage the operating system, so we’ll have greater availability and less risk."

"With Azure, whenever you have a problem, it is dealt with, no matter the time."

"None of us knew how to code, but we knew what we wanted our app to do and look like. Microsoft helped us translate those ideas into requirements and a spec, and then did the coding pro bono and helped our own developers learn how to use the technology."

"Our Microsoft experts saw the app as a good idea, rolled up their sleeves, and got it done. Their enthusiasm, speed, and efficiency were impressive. We couldn’t have done it without them."

"We're no longer tied down by hardware and infrastructure upkeep and maintenance. Azure services run in the background, so we can focus our skills on answering questions and solving problems instead of worrying about infrastructure."

"With Azure ML, we can uncover associations between factors and outcomes, like the characteristics of students who accept the offer to attend Fordham, or those students who are at risk and in jeopardy of not graduating."

“It’s fantastic that Microsoft has enabled us to take advantage of these great pieces of technology. It’s really changing lives.”

"We’ve certainly improved work-item tracking by using Visual Studio Team Services. It allows for better visibility into the creation of tasks, the processes for closing them down, and burndown rates. We can also customize its new process templates—and still ensure smooth software upgrade processes."

"Everybody from construction firms to facility managers to farmers can take advantage of this technology. Because it’s wireless, portable, and connected to Azure, you can put it anywhere it’s required, and move it whenever you like."

"We connected Microsoft data engineers with our security staff, and they learned that we weren't taking on any additional risk by moving our data to a Visual Studio Team Services environment in Azure."

"With Azure data intelligence, we can know more about our customers’ water and become their trusted water advisor, … not just an equipment supplier."

"It’s amazing that in just 16 months, a billion-dollar company moved all its key business systems into the cloud. I attribute this to the great local support we had from Microsoft and to how easy the technology is to use."
