What do you like best about Google Cloud?

What i really like about google cloud is how well it integrates with other google services, If you're already in google ecosystem for example using gmail, google workspace or bigquery. I used google cloud services daily and everything feels just seamless. The UI is clean and i expecially enjoy the speed and reliability of services like compute engine and cloud storage. Pricing is also very competetive. Even non technical person can use most of the services by google cloud, and for developer its very easy to integrate with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Google Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use google cloud for hosting apps and some data processing tasks it helps reduce infrastructure management overhead and gives me more flexibility to scale my products when i need to.

What do you like best about Google Cloud?

Google Cloud is a convenient platform that remembers everything daily, so you don't have to. If you use a Windows-based device that utilizes Google applications, then using Google Cloud is simple, automatically integrates with ease, and just makes sense when you use it every day. AI supports various consumer needs, and when more complex issues arise, AI will get you connected with a Google technical support professional. You can develop applications, monitor analytics, and streamline workflows with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

Google Cloud provides users with a minimum amount of free cloud storage that many find inadequate for their needs. Thankfully, Google offers additional Cloud storage for an affordable monthly cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Google Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Google Cloud solves the need for additional hard drive storage space and/or USB flash drives to store consumer information in an easily searchable format that is also easily accessible.
