Dislikes are very less but some point of improvement i can see

1) logs can be more improved, visualizing the logs to detect correct issue sometime becomes challening

2) time of starting of a instance after it goes to zero can be more improved

3) Having a pause option is usefull while the project is in development mode currently cloud run is not having it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A game-changer tool for solving critical business problems related to deployment complexity."
What do you like best about Google Cloud Run?

Ive had a good overall experience ising Google Cloud Run. For container-based apps, the platform offers a serverless design, which freeing our team to concentrate on development and releasing code rather than managing servers or scaling.

When creating cloud-native apss the multi-language support and integration with other services come in handy. Enables us to deploy our YAMLs without having to spin Kubernets infrastructure.

Easier intergration makes it easier for me to inegrate with other GCP services like cloud SQL and many more.

Support is also another added advantage so user friendly and resmponise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Run?

Ease of use and seamless integration are some of the best aspects of this tool. So far no disadvantages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"No Longer Load balancer, No Multiple app Server/instance No Downtime just simple Cloud Run"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Run?

For a Client Application earlier deployed for 12000+ users in a large Pharma setup there is often App Downtime due to Load even with regular maintenance of App server and using Load Balancer. Later Application shifted to Cloud now it's what I say no headache of high priority incidents due to server crash. It's fully managed and autoscale feature along with pricing as per scaling truly works for us Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Run?

Earlier Application Server was on a Virtual machine now to migrate to Google run we need to containerize this. Thus there is limitation as of needed to migrate to another Cloud Server to host Application apart from Google. Also with a new instance there is a delay as compared to previous one which is not favourable for banking Applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
