I'm using Azure DDoS Protection Basic
What do you like best?
All azure services and IPs are protected by azure ddos protection basic by default. Their basic ddos protection is included at no extra charge. There's nothing to configure on our end because their entire network is already protected. I appreciate them providing basic ddos protection for free on all of their plans.
What do you dislike?
Their standard ddos protection is a whopping $3 grand a month. We don't need it right now since the basic package is keeping up just fine, but I would love if they can lower the price or let us try it to see if there's any significant network improvements. I still love azure and their basic plan, but I'm just curious in what the standard plan has to offer.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Our website and services were getting ddosed so we proxied our services and website through azure using sshl. That charm worked, and drove ddosers went away. Our services are up more and we have little to no downtime now after applying azure on top of our infrastructures. This has saved us a lot of money when we were desperately looking for specialized ddos protection when azure can just do fine for now.
