How Alternatives Are Selected

1. Amazon Web Services

4.6

Our overall experience with Amazon Web Services has been very positive. We use AWS to support our web application, and it has given us a reliable, scalable, and flexible cloud environment. What has worked well is the breadth of services, the ease of scaling as our needs grow, and the strong ecosystem around deployment, monitoring, storage, and security. It helps our development teams move faster and build with confidence, What has not worked as well is that the platform can feel complex at times, pricing can become difficult to track across multiple services, and some services require a learning curve before teams can use them efficiently. Even with those challenges, AWS has been a strong platform for our business and technical needs.

2. Microsoft Azure

By Microsoft

4.5

(2254 Ratings)

One of the great things we like about Microsoft Azure is that it has a consistent identity and access infrastructure whether it be Entra ID, RBAC, Conditional Access, everything works in sync. Another thing is simplified lifecycle operations, like for VM's it has native support for managed disks, backups, monitoring etc. Security is also great, you can have rule based NSGs at the subnet and NIC level. App services are good and offer multiple deployment slots, environment separations and rollbacks.

4. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

By Oracle

4.3

(367 Ratings)

My experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure has been solid. While OCI may not have the same market share as some other vendors, it brings decades of enterprise-grade experience, especially in database technologies over the past few years. The background is reflected in reliability and strong database capabilities.

5. Huawei Cloud

By Huawei

4.7

(221 Ratings)

Huawei Cloud can be a big player in the future and even compete with other similar and more mature solutions due to cheaper licensing costs, but for now, lacks a lot of features that were added many years ago in other tools. Also, many tools don't support Huawei cloud, which makes integrations harder or impossible.

By OVHcloud

4.2

(23 Ratings)

I have been using OVH public cloud for over 5 years. My experience so far has been close to flawless with this product. The deployment and setup steps are super easy and take very little time. Public cloud resources once deployed are fast, reliable and dosent go down often. The SLA is spot on and we have not recorded any outages since we started using the service.
