IT Intel Verdict

Pick: Azure

Azure is our top pick due to its strong hybrid cloud capabilities, good integration with Microsoft products, and growing ecosystem. While Oracle Cloud has a strong focus on enterprise needs, its limited scalability, high cost, and limited AI capabilities hold it back. Azure is a better choice for organizations that need a scalable and secure cloud provider with strong hybrid cloud capabilities.
