Pricing is going to be a huge deciding factor.
Azure is expensive, but its getting better. They enabled full IIS in the latest 1.3 release. Now you can host multiple websites within a single WebRole and map subdomains to each site. Remote Desktop access and full admin rights removed many other restrictions as well.
SQL Azure still has the craziest pricing. $10/gb. Thats why we decided to go the 'NoSql' route and use Table Storage for everything possible.
