I like the security provided by Microsoft Cloud Platform that gives us comfort that our Clouds data and applications are safe and secure with excellent backups and recovery capabilities and our entire organization depend on this platform for effective data migration. The system integrations with this platform are highly intuitive with the ease to customize its API and excellent performance monitoring capability to all our Clouds applications.

As a result, there are no specific drawbacks, but if it supports Python applications, one can deploy even dynamic applications on Vercel without having to look for another hosting platform. I've used it to host one of my documentation websites. I edited and deployed the documentation using the pre-built template. It was very quick because all I had to do was enter the data; no coding was required.
