Have you had the pleasure of working with Azure? I'll take AWS any day over that dumpster fire.

As someone that is deciding between AWS, Google and Azure - could give an outline of some of the Azure painpoints? Are there any blogs or other articles that outlines what your concerns would be?

I'm pretty aware of how painful it can be to configure AWS well, IAM roles, the overly large eco-system that we won't need and unmitigated complexity to configure it all. It's not comforting to think Azure is worse yet.

They’re just different. People like the devil they know.

The Azure Resource Manager system is much easier to use than the fragmented mess that is AWS.

The problem with Azure is that they’re still catching up to AWS. They have fewer products and the quality is worse.

Really basic issues will remain unaddressed for years.

I work on and off with both, AWS may be more feature complete in some areas but Azure is frankly easier to work with for me, I can actually get support on issues I have from Microsoft. And while I've generally only done so from the large enterprise account perspective, Microsoft is way more open to feature requests/enhancements than Amazon is. I don't have any experience with GCP so I can't speak on that.

We selected AWS for very modest needs, but sometimes I glance over at Azure and wonder if the grass is greener. I'll take your word on it though.

We work with Azure and don't have any major complaints about it - what were your issues?
