400 reasons to not use Microsoft Azure

AWS pages are built by different teams, and it shows. We're all supposed to use IAC though, right?

In all seriousness, even in the face of IAC, the one thing Azure can do that AWS can't [at the time this happened to me], is have a global view of everything that's running right now and costing me money. It was years back, it was a $5 bill, but the principle of it had me livid. I did my best to tear down everything after my evaluation, yet something was squirreled away costing money.

So yeah, absolutely, sluggish UI all the way (I also find the Amazon storefront profoundly ugly and disorganized).

For a view of everything that’s costing you money, you can just look at your detailed billing data. That’s been available for at least 13 years.
