Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution's workflows are its most useful feature.""AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management.""AgilePoint has improved our organization by making form implementation easier and to plan for future growth.""The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy.""I like the design and the integration capacity. It's also easy to use."

More AgilePoint Pros →

"What I found most valuable in Microsoft Azure App Service is that it's a PaaS. I also like that it supports Docker and multiple frameworks so that you can work on Java, Ruby on Rails, PHP, and Python.""The program is stable and we've had no technical issues so far.""The most valuable features of this solution are the easy deployment, the scalability, and the Azure maintenance.""It is the best because it's easy to use, and there's a plan for every type of workload.""The most valuable feature is that it's an ideal solution when it comes to lifting and shifting monolithic applications from on-premises to Azure Cloud. It allows for a quick shift into the cloud without having to analyze and design very specific infrastructure and services for monolithic applications hosted primarily on-premises. Let's say that the team does not want to really redesign monoliths in a microservices-based application and that they want to make a quick move towards adopting the cloud tech stack. Then, Microsoft Azure App Service is probably the best option.""The most valuable features of Microsoft Azure App Service are its vertical and horizontal scaling, along with its ability to throw a docker image.""The solution is very simple to set up.""The solution overall is very good."

Cons
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier.""It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer.""Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes.""They should add more information about functionality.""While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta."

More AgilePoint Cons →

"When trying to scale up, it has a limitation, specifically an upper limitation. In general, scalability should be improved.""In terms of improvement, the technical support could be better.""The solution is quite expensive. If you need more features, you need to pay for them.""If you are not using the product properly, then it can cost you a lot of money. Hence, you need to make sure that you choose the services wisely. You need to make sure that you have a budget and have some alerts associated with it. The tool's cost can easily go high if you don't consider these things properly. You need to review your existing subscription.""I would like to see faster adoption and templates that we can use.""The outbound connectivity is not great.""It would be fantastic if Microsoft morphed after my exit service, removing it from subscriptions and moving it to different regions, especially for that service.""In terms of room for improvement, ease of deployment would be an area that needs some focus. Azure does provide out-of-the-box deployment features, but I found that deploying to an App Service instance can be better in terms of more tools that could be available to perform a deployment."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
  • "I think the price is reasonable."
  • "Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
  • "It is more cost-effective than local tools."
  • More AgilePoint Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Azure doesn't cost as much as other services."
  • "Less than USD $100 per month."
  • "We have no complaints about the pricing."
  • "Azure App Service is expensive compared to its competitors, especially its cloud-only version."
  • "Where there are different customer sizes, some customers consume $5,000 US dollars per month. I have some customers who pay and consume more than $20,000 US dollars per month, for example. It is determined by customer sizes and requirements, which vary from month to month."
  • "The pricing and cost of this solution depends on the use and needs of a business."
  • "On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate this solution as a four."
  • "The pricing for this solution is set in tiers, with the overall cost depending on the features that are required. I would advise organizations to have a detailed look at the functions they need, to ensure that they are in the correct pricing tier."
