What differentiates Google Cloud from other similar products?
This software is unique in comparison to others since it provides a multitude of services. These services include processing power, storage, databases, machine learning, analytics, and internet of things services.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I find that GCP's many points of interface with other systems, such as data studio, facilitate the easy and quick sharing of data, the processing of that data, and its display, all of which contribute to better decision-making on the part of businesses. In my role as a software engineer, I focus almost entirely on fixing problems rather than laying the groundwork for new features. It greatly reduces the amount of time required to get the feature to production and helps spread an engaged culture throughout the team.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The downsides, in my opinion, are the rapid pace of change and the fact that some SDKs are inextricably bound to specific cloud-based service providers, making it more difficult for outside developers to make contributions. In particular when you wish to deploy your software internationally, the safety and security features aren't up to par. While GCP solution deployment costs are greater than those of Microsoft Azure and AWS, they are still quite low.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It has a classy $300 credit that may be used to try out various cloud-based services. Excellent local assistance; Stack Overflow, Github, and Google Cloud all have active communities of helpful developers. Thus far, working with GCP has been a wonderful experience. hoping for a more rapid expansion of this infrastructure in the years to come.
Pros
- Reliable
- Trustworthy
- Unique Features
- Efficient Service

What differentiates Google Cloud from other similar products?
Google Cloud's Dashboard is well thought out and billing is also very transparent, they are really supportive when it comes to startups too by offering credits worth several thousand dollars.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The Identity and Access Management is so well designed and easy to use that even a non-tech person can manage it unlike the nightmare it is on other cloud vendors. It really helps with managing access and ensuring that company's IP can be protected at all times.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The lack of varied services such as Lightsail is one major drawback. The pricing offset thought in compared to rivals however offset most of these concerns.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
You should do a compatibility test with your requirement with a cloud expert before you go for any of the players in the market as even though they all offer similar service, each one brings its own USP that could substantially impact your operations and finances.

- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
