What do you like best about Google Cloud?

Google cloud function is a fantastic serverless computing service, that I've found useful for handling event-driven tasks. The simplicity is what I like most, without worrying about managing servers, just write your function, deploy and leave the rest to Google to handle it. It's extraordinary for lightweight tasks like processing real time events, automating workflow or integrating with other GC services. The scalability is also impressive, functions being able to scale automaticlly, reducing cost based on usage only, which actually is cost effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

Altough with all the postives, there are few drawbacks too. There is a long learning curve for someone wants to try. It's easy to set up simple functions, but things are tricky when it comes to managing complex project. Debugging and logging system is functional but clunky at times. Troublesome integrating with other ecosystem other than google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's helping us to create integration between system like Netsuite, Shopify, ErpNext Frappe, Google Sheets. Other than that Authentication using Firebase authentication also customer engagemet through DialogFlow. We are using pub-sub for streamlining errors to centralised app, allowing us to overlook the execution of apps seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Google Cloud Pub/Sub?

I like how easy pub/sub is to use out of the box, and how well the various google cloud products integrate with both consuming and producing data for Pub/Sub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Pub/Sub?

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

Pub/Sub is solving the problem of fast easy to use message queueing. Ive used Azure Service Bus and Rabbit MQ which have a higher level of complexity both in setup and administration. Additionally the observability of the state of the queues is top tier. Lastly being able to scale without worrying about the disk space being over utilized make a huge difference in usability and manageability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
