  There is absolutely no way to create a ticket on Azure Support even after taking $100 support plan. It's P0 issue our systems are down and there are so many unnecessary forms. @MicrosoftIndia @Microsoft @Azure We need immediate help.

  just paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account

  Manual expense processing slows teams down. When Ramp faced this problem, it turned to the Microsoft Azure AI Platform to automate 5M receipts each month - saving the company 30,000 hours of work. 😱 Read the story to understand how AI makes it possible. @Azure

  Unacceptable for an "enterprise" cloud. @awscloud & @Azure give grace periods to prevent disasters. GCP shutting down a live business over a minor payment delay is UNSAFE. We lost actual customers today. Moving our infrastructure immediately. Fix this @AskGoogleCloud! (2/2)

  @Azure your support request capability in Azure is a disaster. The drop downs don't help and never actually lets me open a ticket.....

  @Azure, you want to tell me that someone from Afghanistan can create an account with you while a developer from Sierra Leone cannot create? Do you know how much the US government has invested in my country? Man please fix this issue.

  Tried to setup @Azure Foundry for @OpenAI data residency in West Germany. Recap after 1 hour: This is the WORST dev experience like ever. WTF is deployment type (I selected Germany for a reason), what is quota and why does it not exist? I added a credit card - THAT IS MY QUOTA. Oh, and not a SINGLE OpenAI model (except text-embedding-3-large) is selectable. Apparently, there is "some quota" for GPT-4-Turbo (hello 2023!!) but the model is not even in the model selector... And the best thing? How much model quota you have, the model's description, and the model's pricing are at 3 different locations. Oh, and, yes, you are able to "Request Quota" but it is just a long form where you have to enter ALL your account data again and even add a justification, and then maybe get a reply at some point? So, basically, a customer needing data residency in Germany will need to write a support ticket as their first task after account creation. Nice CX.. I am quitting the process and will try out @MistralAI for this project

  When manual finance work piled up, Ramp built a custom OCR tool with Microsoft Azure AI to automate it. 📄 Read this customer story for ideas on using Azure AI to support similar goals. @Azure #Microsoft

  @BlasikRandy @Azure Codex doesn't fix the problem of a cloud-native shell that's actually in the same region as the tenant with an effective set of security controls and behaves correctly in a chromium-based browser on multiple devices.

  @Azure Evaluation to enforcement is the right loop. Agent trust is not a one-time test; it needs repeated policy checks, runtime controls, and evidence that the fix actually changed behavior before the agent gets more scope.

  Can’t wait to launch my new project 🎉 pmuch launch rdy now so pumped just gotta wait in @Azure to fix itself . Insane that I’ve been waiting for 3 weeks for KYC on a $10/mo service lol

  OpenAI is completing with @awscloud @googlecloud and @Azure This is interesting. But they are still depending on their infrastructure to launch this service. So basically the competition is PaaS

  @Azure you guys have the absolute worst support ticket system in the world you should be ashamed of yourselves it’s mind blowing I can’t even get a ticket submitted because you stick some canned LLM crap at the end of the claim opening process..

  @AzureSupport @AzureSupport @Azure . I have been charged for support plan that i didn't know.. Pleas help!!!!!.

  @guyrleech @Azure At some point someone on the Windows App team will reach the same conclusion and fix the slowness and reliability issues. And hopefully rename the App to something more useful. Copilot has problems strongly binding to such a generic name.

  @Azure @MicrosoftHelps damn this is how your "Azure MVP" developers talk to marginalized people, huh? As a disabled person, very glad I don't use Microsoft products and push back against your AI garbage considering you condone ableist slur usage.

  A few months ago I attempted to create a RAG index using aisearch in @Azure that pulled it’s knowledge from PDFs in sharepoint libraries. It was a miserable experience tweaking a Logix app flow to ocr, merge, split and chunk the PDFs that i eventually gave up. I attempted it again yesterday because I saw they now allow me to do all of the above by just building out some JSON configs and a skill set. It was easier, ran faster, and didn’t run into the same errors/limitations that I ran into in Logix apps. Kudos to @Microsoft

  @guyrleech @Azure **** name, **** experience, **** performance. The sooner it's yeeted into the sun, the better. RD Client still works, is quicker and more reliable. Will continue to be used until it stops working.

  A big reason is because you can’t sign up for half of the hyperscalers. Today I tried to open an @Azure account today & the anti-bot mechanism was broken. I then tried @googlecloud & adding an address to billing was broken. They just don’t care anymore. 🤷

  It seems @Azure SQL Servers/Databases have connectivity issues. Intermittent in the last few days but nothing on their status page 😭

  For anyone checking on here - Yes @Azure OpenAI in Europe is still shagged. Despite what the @AzureSupport "status" page says. Mostly fixed by 13:30 GMT+1 except West Europe. But since 15:42 GMT+1 Sweden, UK South and West Europe all bad again. p95 response time of 78 seconds!

  @GarethDennis The number of times drivers were late to trains before I retired off @GWRHelp because @Azure went down and they couldn't see their Safety Notices was a real issue... is the problem 'digitalia americana' or rather single-sourcing everything with no redundancy/fallback?

  Show me the bigger scam than this!! FIRST you pay to use the services and they are under delusion that their system is so perfect that there is no bug!! and than you pay to get support and still you find it so hard to just reach to the customer support!!! Please @Azure team at least use good AI to share support documentation!!!

  Start VM on Connect not working from the native Windows App today but has previously. @Azure permissions set properly. Start same desktop as same user via the web client on same machine & the VM starts. No error in Windows App, just stops showing "Connecting" (and never shows Starting).🙁

  Working on setting up disaggregated deployment of azure local connected to pure storage. I see the vision but holy crap the initial config is painful 😭 @Azure
