Azure vs. KeepSec
Looking for an alternative to Azure ?
Is Azure or KeepSec right for you?
Most analysts consider Azure to be a “strong number two” to AWS in the realm of cloud providers, according to Ray Wang, founder of Constellation Research. Often, companies that select Azure do so thanks to Microsoft’s far-reaching clout—and for good reason. The combination of Azure, Office 365, and Teams (Microsoft’s communication platform) enables automatic integration, simplifying workflows.
While Azure's infrastructure is impressive, outages are still common: Microsoft has yet to shake a significant wave of outages over the past few years, including a major global outage in May 2019. Gartner , for one, recommends adding a cloud disaster recovery tool outside of Azure for protection.
