Agreed. Too bad the Azure portal is the polar opposite. AWS, for all its faults, is mostly just a boring HTML portal but it works.
Azure tried to get fancy, with side sliding panels all over the place, and it is barely useable. The nicest thing I can say is it is "quirky." It isn't really productive however, particularly not on my 1080p monitor at Windows 10's default 125% DPI.
I literally quit Azure's Application Insights and went back to Google Analytics simply because I hated the Azure UI with a burning passion of a thousand suns.
The concept of writing queries is good, but if that's the only way you can get at your data you better make it damn easy, and they didn't. I'm sure for full time data pros it is a dream however.

- rjbwork 8y agoThat's interesting. I actually quite like it. I can build monitoring dashboards for our various services an see how something I don't need to monitor is doing just by going to the panel for it. To each his own I suppose.
