We could start with the one that MS code is notably buggy :)
As far as I know most of the bread-and-butter consumer visible stuff is still mostly c++ (e.g. office suite, windows, etc.). I imagine there is a bunch of C# in Azure etc.
I could easily be wrong, been a while since I've spent much time with anyone working there. But these things have momentum and clean rewrites usually fail.
- haolez 5y agoI've had bad experiences and reliability issues with some of their software. For example: OneDrive for Windows, Teams, Azure AD, Windows Bluetooth Stack, Azure Functions, Azure SQL Database. All of those are mostly ok, but we encounter reliability issues on a more frequent basis than software from other vendors, like Amazon and Google.
- ska 5y agoFWIW I wouldn't hold them up as a beacon of good practices either, but I've found them about average for issues, perhaps a bit better than average for response & docs.
