What do you like best about Firebase?

Firebase has become everyone's starter tool for every Project, It providers all the any features from A to Z. It has dedicated interface for every project which is very easy to use.

One can use all the features of Firebase just by integrating a JSON file which also can be downloaded from firebase UI.

I have been using firebase from the day I started developing and it's been 5 years i started using it.

It has features like Authentications, Cloud Functions, Realtime database, Firestore, Google Analytics and many more.

Firebase is famous for its remarkable ease of implementation, making it an ideal choice for developers of all levels, from beginners to experienced professionals.

Also Customer Support is good, they send out regular emails if they think there's an issue with the product in which we integrated firebase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Firebase?

Nothing as of know, firebase is incredible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Firebase?

Firebase is one of the best BaaS service I would say for beginners. Firebase comes with a free tier which helps in testing your idea and the best thing is everything you will need for your backend you will find here. From different types of authentication(email, OAuth, SMS) to different types of database, Crash Handling, etc all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Firebase?

As your project will scale the cost of managing your backend increases significantly and migrating from firebase is not so easy which makes you spend more on your backend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Firebase?

Firebase's Realtime Database and Firestore allow you to synchronize data between clients in real-time, which is particularly useful for chat apps, live feeds, and collaborative features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Firebase?

Firebase Realtime Database, while powerful for real-time apps, can be challenging to manage with complex data structures. Although Firestore improves this, the Realtime Database can still be cumbersome for highly relational data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
