It is capable to handle heavy load of data for storage and retrieval. In additional, rather than having an expensive in-house relational database for the business needs, Azure database by microsoft is cheaper and maintain by the microsoft experts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure database is one of the amazing product I've come across that helped us solved all the business problems in our company.It is indeed one of the best tools for business analysts, DB administrators and the developers. Besides, it is easy to use, and it suitable for complex queries. Another advantage is that it now supports all the machine learning capabilities which makes it highly advanced in it's features.

The data as being generated in a huge amount today in a various format is what makes this product quite inefficient. Azure database like any other databases can only store structured data and it doesn't really do a good job in storing poorly structured messy data which makes it less desirable.

I love how scalable Azure is. The database queries run pretty fast and it's never an issue for me when I need to execute large queries. MySQL is supported easily and connector to my web app is also seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Microsoft azure don't have that much limitations that i dislike it but I think the speed can be improved. Apart from that, the pricing is also an issue as users can get cheaper service from other companies like amazon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I liked the support provided by it for all the well known frameworks like Django , WordPress etc,it becomes so easy to merge your application with database using it,Microsoft manage and backup that resource for us so that we can focus on other aspects of the site. Plus, we will have the ability to scale up and down temporarily as traffic surges and then bringing it back down when it is not needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
