Just curious--where are you hosting your vms? We have a handful that use azure, but most are running on prem esxi. I'm biased because I came in to nothing being documented

    On prem. We haven't done cloud yet.

    My most trouble free environments are the azure ones. Servers spin up or down based on user count. It's not cheap though.

    Azure backups are the shit. Need to roll back to yesterday to pull a copy of a file? Log onto azure, go to backup section. Then you download an executable and get a key. Run it on your file server, and it mounts a copy of the disk as it was at backup time. So nice and easy.
