lolipopp (@lovisapnew) reported@Azure COPILOT IN AZURE IS USELESS AS HELL, IT DOESN’T SOLVE ****. IT FEELS LIKE AN AI MADE BY A 12-YEAR-OLD. If you offer Azure for Students, why the hell don’t the regions allow you to create free virtual machines? What the hell are those services even for?? screw all of you.

deepak yadav (@yadavd4631) reportedHey @Azure @MicrosoftForStartups — your startup credit application asked for NOTHING except a verified LinkedIn. I gave it. Got rejected. No reason given. No next steps. Nothing. How is a founder supposed to fix something when you won't say what's wrong? #Azure #Microsoft
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reportedVery disappointed with @Azure support. A subscription was disabled over “suspicious activity” with no clear explanation, causing our beta app to go down and creating serious business risk. Startups cannot operate on vague flags and delayed resolution. #Azure #Microsoft #Startup

Ashish (@AI_geek01) reportedMicrosoft azure account having suspicious installing jason files in chat playground leading to excessive billing and still continuing. My reseller seems clueless. Please help asap. @Microsoft @Azure
-
ChrisK (@cjk365) reported@guyrleech @Azure All of my clients have decided Windows App is a slow, unreliable piece of crap so I now have to wrap their session connections inside a script that checks that the VM(s) they want to connect to are already running and launch the old RD App session connection.
-
ScholarHat (@ScholarHatX) reported@Azure Great initiative for businesses that want practical AI adoption without unnecessary complexity. Clear guidance and real world implementation steps can help more companies confidently start their AI journey with Azure.

Rohan Magdum 🇮🇳 (@RohanMagdum7) reportedHello @Azure @AzureSupport @MSCloud I'm facing an issue renewing my Azure Administrator Associate certification. It shows expired despite multiple attempts over the past month. Request ID: 2603190030003633 Kindly assist urgently.
-
Rahul S R (@Rahulsr01) reported@ghbdigital @Azure Ironically my main subscription tenant was disabled for inactivity and 2 days before i paid the pay as u go bill for the same ...funny how the support url takes u to general chat thread and not to any forms... I had to use my official subscription to trigger support
-
StopForumSpam (@StopForumSpam) reported@guyrleech @GoogleWorkspace After messing with my entra UPN, I can no longer use entra to log into servers. What’s the bet I can use Google to log into them now? Sort this **** out @azure
-
Mile Brzanov (@milebrzanov) reported@Azure Fix your stuff! Defender for Cloud. Also, why we can't create support tickets while paying over 2K USD per month? #enshittification #microsoft
-
RajneesH Kumar (@rajneeshk_verma) reportedI have a active m365 developer account with that got access to azure portal, I missed to setup MFA now being tenant admin I am not able to login to azure portal, need MFA which is not setup🐔 🥚however m365 still working for me, any help greatly appreciated @AzureSupport @Azure
-
Jackartoons (@jackartoons) reportedSo disappointing to see @AWSstartups and its lack of support to startups unlike @Azure @AzureSupport who are helpful and accessible.

Inflectiv AI ⧉ (@inflectivAI) reported@Azure Using real-world architectures ensures that your application is built to handle professional workloads from the very beginning. Following these proven patterns helps avoid common scaling issues and security mistakes that usually happen during early development.

Mark Hughes (@huzi8t9) reportedIt seems @Azure SQL Servers/Databases have connectivity issues. Intermittent in the last few days but nothing on their status page 😭 #azure #sqlserver #connectivity
-
A1g0rithmIc (@A1g0rithmIc) reportedEnterprise AI vendors have a credibility problem when they sell broad use intelligence while their own product documentation is inaccurate. If the system’s deterministic behavior is already codified, documenting it clearly in natural language should be table stakes in this world... 👀 @Azure @MSCloud 👀
-
Aditya Jivoji (@adityajivoji) reported@Azure tried to sign-up for a new azure account. wtf is the ‘Press and Hold’ challenge. I tried 23 times and it still does not work. what is wrong with you @Microsoft there is no other way I can prove I am a human? just this one option. wtf??
-
ChrisK (@cjk365) reported@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.
-
Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

TongHe Human Connection (@TongHeConv) reported@Azure Getting in the room is half the battle. Staying in the conversation is the other half. That’s the problem we’re focused on solving for multilingual families.
-
Adib X (@AdCoinMy) reported@Azure @AzureSupport Startup credits expired while I was unwell for 3 months. Submitted extension request, no response yet. 4 live AI products at risk. Sub ID: fd50fc63-265f-4b35-a7b3-4ae535d954f5. Please help. i cannot open any ticket tried #AzureStartups #MicrosoftForStartup
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedOf all the hyperscalers, @AzureSupport's refusal to do timely updates on their status dashboard is absolutely enraging. The last time Azure OpenAI had a problem in late October, MS finally updated the dashboard 3 hours after the outage began! Does @Azure even have a NOC?
-
Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for about 1 day straight, Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe its time to use New Technology👇🏻👇🏻 @AWSCloudIndia @digitalocean @Azure
-
Poletto (@Its_Alan_Paul) reported@msft4startups @Azure We need more support
-
Jason Fleagle (@jjfleagle) reported@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.
-
DevOps Guy (@riyajaix) reported@takuya_tominaga Thank you for highlighting hard on various platform. I was wondering who will be next in this! This is absolutely pathetic from @Azure that they are simply not ready to fix this.
-
Technophile (@Technop54777070) reportedA 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

Galaxy.ai (@galaxyai__) reported@Azure Multilingual support is a massive win, finally I can generate memes in more than one language.

Alex Crossley (@alexcrossley) reportedPlease, can anyone at @Azure Business Support understand that I can not log into Azure, and so I can not use the portal for support? HELP!

JSeds (@jackseds) reported@ANDY29493 @Azure No, they have too much to fix before they can add new features
