What if I create an Azure SQL Database using Management Studio (SSMS)?

Will there be differences if I create my Azure SQL Database using Management Studio instead of Azure Portal?

Yes, there are. One major difference I noticed is, Snapshot Isolation. By default it is on in an Azure SQL Database along with Is Read Committed Snapshot On;

However, if you create a database using SSMS, it does not set as expected;

As you see, even though Snapshot Isolation is on, Is Read Committed Snapshot On is set as false. Not sure how it is happening, have already asked from experts, will update this with reasons once I received a reply.
