Feature I like most about GCP is it provides high availability, scalability, fault tolerance, read replicas depending on different services. On top of it, also gives option to implement serverless application in which we don't have to provision any infrastructure of out application, it is automatically managed by Google Cloud only.

To manage data from on-premises to Google Cloud is difficult as networking is too much difficult to manage in GCP. And another thing I dislike is to manage billing, it doesn't give combine billing of some services like Cloud Dialogflow. It should also give notification if some resources have not been used from a longer time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloud dataflow allows you to have a daemon that performs ETL while providing top tier observability. Prior to this I was accustomed to long running jobs with poor observability, or low/no code tools that didnt allow me to configure tasks the way I wanted to using code. Dataflow allows me to utilize apache beam on python to great effect to make a repeatable and easily monitored solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The python examples could be a lot more comprehensive. also the concurrency model is difficult to understand, I sometimes experience lock contention with simultaneously running DoFn instances and its not entirely clear how many concurrent threads are processing my workload Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its easy to use and find the tools, supoort/sales team is very active. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
