Microsoft Azure Customer Service

Microsoft Azure has been a transformative journey that not only expanded my technical knowledge but also enriched my perspective on problem-solving and innovation. The comprehensive suite of cloud services offered by Azure provided me with a powerful toolkit to address diverse challenges, from scalable infrastructure solutions to advanced data analytics. The learning curve was steep, but the robust documentation and community support made the process rewarding. Navigating through Azure’s platform not only honed my technical skills but also instilled in me a resilient mindset to tackle complex tasks with confidence. The real-world applications of Azure services, such as virtual machines, databases, and machine learning, empowered me to implement solutions that have tangible impacts. This experience extended beyond the technical realm, fostering a sense of creativity and adaptability crucial in today’s fast-paced digital landscape. Moreover, engaging with Azure services encouraged collaboration and problem-solving, skills that transcend the realm of technology. The ability to work efficiently within the Azure ecosystem translated into a broader aptitude for teamwork, communication, and strategic thinking. In essence, Microsoft Azure has been more than just a cloud platform for me

Its great for some basic functionalities that would be crucial if you are away and something happens, like a crash and needs a manual restart. Is it a daily driver? Of course not, its an iOS app. Thats what the az cli and portal are for. But for a lite mobile version, it does the job.

Developers fixed a bug that stopped metrics from showing up pretty quickly. App is very decent and functional. Love having access to metrics on my phone.

I want to be able to get to my previous commands in cloud shell from iOS from standard virtual keyboard. I haven’t found any way (even with third party keyboards) to do this. I am assuming a USB keyboard is the only way to do this using arrows but an augmented way to access history from bash without external keyboard from my iPhone would be ideal. Then this would be perfection!!

Has been helpful for many common tasks. Best use for me was assisting a colleague with troubleshooting a network issues minutes before an Eagles concert started. I used to be able to switch between my personal tenant and work now unable to do so.

I’ve been using this app for quite some time to keep an eye on our corporate resources and reboot VM’s when needed. We recently made the change over to Azure Government and am disappointed that I can’t point to which environment the app should log in to. Hope this functionality is added soon!

There is some great stuff here. Certainly lots of room for improvement and the team is very responsive to fixing bugs. It would be fantastic to be able to do more with my resources like add/edit/view properties/connection strings on my web app. Edit Function Apps, View blobs in storage accounts.

I’ve used them once but I’m about to use them again.

Linking accounts my other phone is slow now

Status bar color is white and invisible on iOS 13 dark mode!

This service has made my development experience incredibly and I have the ability to work more efficiently

Convenient app to have. Easy to use interface.

Hi I can't submit feedback ... the button is broke . Overall like the app. The feedback is: can you please include billing info .very important to how we run our biz and plan& allocate spend .

Loving the cost management built into the Resource Group view. Keep up the good work!

Displays blank screen on iPhone running iOS 17.1.2. It worked before iOS 17 As of March 12, 2024 it is working again.

Easy to understand and navigate. Wealth of resources and robust catalogue. Experience on the mobile isn’t diminished. Love it!

Everything I’d want, this app has it! Fast and convenient features for external monitoring.

Really hope in the future update, we could add firewall rules like client ip etc...

It will also show you how much money

Azure app is good for basic functions. Would love to be able to edit tags natively.

I never created tasks before, for myself, but using Azure Boards for reminders is a great idea

Is it possible we can get a full azure dev ops app to see sprint/pipelines/pull requests,etc? Thank you MSFT

It’s and excellent solution for multi users and a cloud option for all business

Azure is the Best Of The Best, Thank you Azure

I would like to make so much with this, so many possible ways to go. How I fund.

It Works!

Everything works great again; VMs can be started/stopped without crashing the app.

The current version is a slight improvement from previous versions. Previously, in the shell, full copy-paste wasn’t possible. You could do one or the other. Now, looks like that’s fully supported. Good job. You get two stars instead of one. But if I want to use ^C in the shell, I can’t. Seriously. Is there anyone actually testing the shell? A reasonable amount of regression would have found these issues in a day. I want to be able to use my iPad to manage docker container groups on Azure. For that, I might want to use a multiplexor and/or a mosh implementation. This is because iOS apps tend to hibernate after a few seconds of being in the “background.” There’s no reason I should have to use Blink to manage Azure assets if you’re serious about having your own app. Back to Blink, I guess. Using the iOS standard keyboard from my is still a joke in cloud shell. Do we have to wait literal years for this to become useful?

I’m not sure who this app was meant for. I suppose devs who know the Azure CLI commands by heart and people who don’t really need any functionality might be the audiences but those two groups are at the ends of the spectrum. Most of the services I care for don’t have any information to display or just aren’t there. Can’t control or view what’s happening with Kubernetes; Docker/“Container Registry” doesn’t even show what’s in the registry. Looking at the reviews, this has been a common theme for at least over 5 years now and the app seems to still have the same level of low usefulness. Might switch back to AWS since I can at least do something on the app.

I can’t scale my instances from the app can’t get useful info on alerts — I can goto cloud shell but not sure how useful that is on a phone. Was trying to use the app for easy one off tasks on the road but app needs to focus on useable features and hire a cloud engineer to be the product manager for the app cause it’s missing what I would call useful features. If you just want to see a list of fired alarms and a list of resources it’s ok for that but if you need to scale a db from p1->p15 in the middle of the night you cany

Horrible customer service . Can’t help me find out who hacked and took admin for my azure account . Aren’t they made to be security and to prevent that from happening ? Customer support blamed it on Microsoft . 😂. Between them , Microsoft and gateway ( the cpu used ) , I gotta say they are rather consistent and extremely similar at three things ! Allowing hackers to take advantage of “not geek “ like ppl , having near impossible access to customer support and then having support that has no value while providing zero assistance .

This app is largely a read-only view into your azure account. If you know the command-line commands, there is a cloud-shell available, but do you have all your pre-written scripts available on your phone (or maybe iPad)? I don’t. It makes this app mostly just frustrating. I give it three stars because I can imagine it maybe being useful in an emergency.

This app is great for monitoring my existing Azure resources, and it can even do basic management tasks such as starting, restarting and stopping VMs, but it misses the one core functionality that I need the most - create and delete resources (especially VMs, but not limited to them). This is the main reason for me to access the web portal, and also the reason I tried this app. When you’ll implement this, I’ll rate it 5 stars 😊

This app functionally works very well. But from a features standpoint it is pretty limited. For example one would expect to be able to browse a storage account and preview files that were uploaded. Or be able to click a link on the web app in a web app service to browse the app.

Great utility, though would like to be able to set up a dashboard to watch CPU on multiple machines/sql instance rather than having to tap around Main problem though is it is really just a viewer... I can't resize a SQL instance or VM size etc without opening up a browser which rather limits it's usefulness

Somehow this app is both slower than the web portal and crashes more. Something I thought impossible. It’s also missing almost anything you’d want in the app. I’m not a proponent of this usually but this should have just been a web wrapper app because it would have been useful then.

All of a sudden my alerts are missing from the home page. I used to see the latest alerts but they have been 0 for the last week. I know this to be false as I have had email alerts. I have not changed my alerts for 3-6 months and they have fired and always have been on the home page but not now.

For some unknown reason this app is nothing like the website. Oh wait, it’s Microsoft, that’s why this app makes zero sense. Garbage app with zero thought put into it. If I’m logging into my Azure account where is my custom dashboard I built for myself?? Garbage. The regular website on a mobile device is 5 billion times better than this app in every way possible, er, at least 5 billion ways better

I don’t know if it’s from the phone update, or backend update at the Azure servers, but everything I do now is just crashing the app. The first time I saw this problem is today. Which just so happens to be there first day to open it since applying the latest update to my phone.

You can view monitoring metric but that is about it. You the view the storage account but not what is in it! You can view a database but neither backup nor restore it. Clean enough, but seems pointless when you can do so much more just with the web browser.

I really love this app, but it is missing any cost tracking or predictive monthly spending like I can view in the desktop portal. Being able to see this info or get alerts when I am nearing my quota would be amazing.

Bummed, was wanting a mobile view of my DevOps boards and be able to create and edit work items. Seems like something that should already exist or be a part of this app - no interest in giving my login to a 3rd party

Microsoft profits from war by providing cloud services and infrastructure through Azure that support military operations, surveillance, and occupation, including in Palestine. Their participation in contracts like Project Nimbus and partnerships with the Israeli military directly enable violence, displacement, and human rights abuses. I refuse to support a company that fuels oppression for profit. I am boycotting and deleting my Microsoft account for these reasons.

The latest version does not load. It gets stuck at login showing a link to “privacy + terms”. Would change my review to 5 stars if it would load.

It throws the error when another email account is added with my Microsoft account

Crashes every time it tries to login *Update 7 December 2018* No longer crashing on newer version, but still lacks many features on the desktop website

Very few Azure services available through the app making it almost entirely useless. (Entirely useless for me since we use PIM and it’s not available through the app).

I can only imagine what the app does or looks like. What would be useful is a keyboard function to input my login information. All I can do is scan text. This doesn’t look good as most people wanting to use this app are most likely in IT.

It refreshes the page showing an empty logo screen for 2 seconds whole. Really bad experience.

Like literally don't bother downloading it. It will not work on newer iPhones. If you have 2fa active and attempt to sign in it makes you leave the app witch then refreshes and makes you start over. This results in a fail loop. DO NOT DOWNLOAD ON IPHONE 13

Tried to check support tickets: app crashes. Tried to report the issue: app crashes. Maybe I’ll find a feature that works if I continue to use it.

When I first got this app I could disconnect or log off users but now there are only 4 services I have access to. What happened?

I was looking for a solution to easily elevate privileges, but adopted PIM for groups. I set everything up before realizing the app didn’t support them.

This app would be great if you could actually check the status of runbook jobs but you can’t. Sorting of jobs doesn’t work and when you do find the most recent job, there is no logging information. Not helpful

Either it is very hard to find or group management is not available nor are any of the AAD administration features.

The app forces me to login to one specific account via federation. There’s no option that lets me enter another email address to start the login process. I can’t use this app with any other Azure account.

I miss being able to manage my AD directory. It is the single most important resource I have and it is not manageable from the app...

Crash on my phone

Lacks lots of stuff. I can’t scale up or scale out through this app. Also not even showing how many http requests. Just a misleading metrics graphs.

I don’t understand the existence of this application. It is moot! You are well off accessing stuff on website. This app offers nothing.

You’re better off accessing the Azure Portal via Safari or what have you. Most resources are view-only. Monitoring metrics are basically screenshots without the ability to change timeframes or drill down. No access to Azure AD (or Entra, if you will) either. Like I said, the mobile view of the Azure Portal site functions much better.

Cannot do anything in this app other than just viewing information. Quite useless. Why even have the app at all? Use a computer instead to get the full functions of this section.

Can't do much with the app but start and stop VMs. Can't even do them in bulk.

Cloudshell is probably the most useful part of this app unless all you want to do is list your resources, and it’s been broken for months. Garbled text on both bash and powershell.

Please provide details of the updates. Getting tired of the standard and all too common update jargon.

Much like the Microsoft 365 Admin app, this app for not sign in for the past 6 months so is completely useless to me. Liked it when it worked

Simply says sign-in failed with every attempt. Can login fine in the web portal but not this useless app.

Can we have the dark mode for the app?
