Necessary product for data storage
Opmerkingen: I had a great experience with this product, it even allowed me to share the storage space with my family which in my opinion is a great feature
Pluspunten:
I like the ease of use, the price for the amount of storage given
Minpunten:
What I liked least about Google Cloud is that they didnt make me aware of incoming payment and I was unprepared for it.
Google Cloud Review
Opmerkingen: My overall experience is not good as Google Cloud does not provide an easy interface and i have to do everything through the terminal. Also, it is a little bit expensive.
Pluspunten:
I like the free credits that Google Cloud provides for researchers to explore the platform. Google Cloud is very good in services related to NLP/text especially the that it is supporting multiple languages for these services. Also, I like the dashboards that Google Cloud offers to track and monitor the services I am currently using.
Minpunten:
Google Cloud has a very limited service for AI comparing to other competitors. The interface of Google Cloud is not easy to use, and I cannot customize it as I want. Also, I do not like the pricing of some services on Google Cloud like the virtual machines, it is really very expensive.
Google Cloud VM
Opmerkingen: It is good to get started with Google cloud and especially when I use google speech to text subscription, I got very good results.
Pluspunten:
It consists of Good Documentation. So one can easily get started with the Google Cloud. It have strong data analytics and storage.
Minpunten:
Some subscriptions are costly. If that cost is reduced, developer can easily access to new technologies. Limited choice of programming languages.
Great tool
Opmerkingen: It's very easy and comfortable software to use. It's safe to access and I know that I will never loose any documents. Once on the drive, it will be forever on the drive.
Pluspunten:
I use Google on my daily tasks both personally and professionally. It's easy and safe to access from any device. And it's easy to share documents (view only). I never lost a document or picture again. Even if I or someone delete something by mistake It's easy to access the previous versions of the document and recover it.
Minpunten:
I wish that it was easier to transfer documents from and to my laptop into my Google Drive folders. Most times it doesn't give that option. I need to download the document and then manually do it. Another downside is sharing documents with a person. Most times it asks permission for the other person to edit it. I normally just download it and then email it.
Good price and excellent Cloud Platform. Love it
Opmerkingen: I had opportunity to utilize Google Cloud for our organization's cloud computing for 2 year, and I must say that it has exceeded our expectations in terms of performance, reliability, and overall user experience.From the moment we migrated our infrastructure to Google Cloud, we witnessed a remarkable improvement in our operations. The platform's robustness and scalability allowed us to seamlessly expand our resources and handle increased workloads without any performance bottlenecks. The ease with which we could provision virtual machines and configure network settings simplified our deployment process significantly.After applied to Google cloud, I had learned a lot of new knowledge on a new platform and a lot of new opportunities have come to me.
Pluspunten:
The best things like is the way that google cloud design the platform. It's really easy to use in the dashboard and the pricing is lower than others
Minpunten:
Google Cloud's support can be slow to respond, especially for non-critical issues
Store and secure data in a reliable manner
Opmerkingen: Google Cloud is very much user-friendly. I manage all my important documents using Google Cloud as well as my company's documents such as designs, method statements etc. Managing a company's documents is part of the role of a planning engineer. Google Cloud makes it very easy for me in my role.
Pluspunten:
Data security is very important in managing a company's documents since the security of employee data, customer data, project data, and financial data is critical for the company. Backup and recovery system is also important for recovering crucial data. Apart from that, I use google cloud to manage my freelancing project data also.
Minpunten:
Customer support is quite slow while learning.
google cloud is the best application for document storage and management
Opmerkingen: using the application has saved money i used to buy flash dicsk
Pluspunten:
i use google cloud to store all my documents online, its so simple to use, user interface is so nice, I like the ability to view all your documents on the cloud
Minpunten:
using the application needs always internet connection and this makes more expensive sometimes customer support team takes a lot of time to answer when contacted
Best Cloud Data Storage Suite
Opmerkingen: My overall experience with Google Cloud has been nothing sort of exceptional and positive. It has improved how I store my cloud data, how I backup my files and the overall security of the data. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a secure and efficient cloud data storage platform.
Pluspunten:
Exceptionally and remarkable UI/UX/GUI design adaptive to advanced cloud data security capabilities such as encryption, authentication, secure login, smooth import/export tailored to meet my files and data requirements hence safeguarding data confidentiality and privacy.
Minpunten:
Nothing to fault about Google Cloud. It's very ideal for any technologist. I'll choose it any day.
We prefer Google Cloud for ease of use and extensive infrastructure products
Pluspunten:
It's easy to use and it provides very consistent experience across all products from the GCP family.
Minpunten:
Limitations. When you hit a limit it's never pleasant and sometimes hard to workaround. So before you make an architectural decision, learn the product you are going to use well.

Google Cloud Platform is simply awesome
Opmerkingen: It is good platform to make your database secure, fast and reliable.
Pluspunten:
It is easy to customize or configure disk based on type and size of the disk through console. The Google compute works great, from this the repository and file for store can be create with ease and maintaining and set up is this is also good. The data can be accessed from anywhere and from any device easily and quickly. The bet of Google Cloud platform is which I like most is we need to pay as per utilization or the feature we opt from this platform. Google cloud is fast, safe, and secure and optimize database as service. It give the best solution for business based on its cloud services.
Minpunten:
We face many problems when we are migrating our virtual machines from one zone to another. Process of migrating VM’s is bit complex and confusing one.
Everyone should be using
Opmerkingen: Google cloud, google nest, google phone, google home.... do I need to say more. Things work great and are all integrated.
Pluspunten:
Been using Google Cloud for 5+ years, through many employers, and for all my personal needs. It has never failed, never glitched or had an issue. Love the program to the point I've made my current employer give "special access permissions" to work computer for Google drive so I can access things from phone as well.
Minpunten:
Honestly don't have any cons. It works perfect, shares information perfectly, and connects all my data into one centralized system.
Google Cloud: An Unforgettable Experience
Opmerkingen: Overall, my experience with Google Cloud was excellent. The setup process was streamlined and the customer service was top-notch. My data was secure and I was able to manage my cloud environment without any issues.
Pluspunten:
Google Cloud provided an intuitive, user-friendly experience that made setting up and managing my cloud environment a breeze. The support team was knowledgeable and always available to help answer questions. The cloud platform was reliable and provided a secure environment for my data.
Minpunten:
Google Cloud is not the most cost-effective option, as there are cheaper alternatives available. There were also some issues with the user interface being a bit clunky at times.

The Cloud Platform to build on for any startup.
Opmerkingen: I have worked at two startups now and both were started on EC2 and transitioning to GCP. The costs are almost 50% less at GCP than EC2 and the support at Google to get started is much greater than the massive AWS. The services and Vms are super easy to use and setup. And if your company is on Gsuite, then user management is great. Will always plan on deploying new programs and projects on GCP for foreseeable future.
Pluspunten:
Google Cloud Platform is very easy to get started with compared to other clouds. There is free training videos and courses. The costs are among the lowest of all cloud platforms.
Minpunten:
At the beginning compute resources ran out in datacenters that you were already in and using. Also, sometimes features are depreciated or changed to paying for. There is a few months notice on those but still an inconvenience.

Best Public cloud platform
Opmerkingen: We are using GCP for years now. We have deployed healthcare, telecommunication, education and logistics business applications on GCP. All applications were migrated from on-prem. Deployments were not too hard. Even though the pricing model is bit complex this is still cheaper than most of the cloud vendors. No repatriations so far.
Pluspunten:
+ Free tier available + Highly scalable + Security + Pay-as-you-go option ,so we have to pay only pay only for the usage. + Bring your own License capability. + Very easy to integrate with Google services.
Minpunten:
+ Less number of datacenters across the world comparing to other vendors. + Pricing is bit complex + Customer services and support services could be improved

An Idea Solution for Students, Autodidacts and Professionals for Anything Cloud Related
Opmerkingen: The most direct and consistent way I have been interacting with Google Cloud Platform was when I took the course "Google IT Support Professional Certificate". This course frequently makes use of GCP to explain real-life situations and I learnt a ton thanks to the doors that GCP open for you. It is possible to set up modified instances, which makes it a perfect learning platform for many different backgrounds in technology, including topics such as technical support, data analysis, data visualization, machine learning, security, etc. I have benefited tremendously from its many features and I expect to solve more complex problems in the near future with new skills under my belt. I loved how simple it was to set up instances, get them running, working with them for a while and then how they can easily be discarded or modified on the fly.
Pluspunten:
In the context of education, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is wonderfully accessible, powerful and useful. Connecting to virtual instances is simple when deploying both Linux and Windows. The instances can be accessed through SSH and there is even a Chrome extension (Chrome RDP) that facilitates connections to Windows under any operating system in use. The platform is extremely well integrated with courses that the same company offers as part of their MOOCs. Instances are responsive and allow to really dig deep without the fear of breaking anything for real. They each get their own IP address accessible publicly so it is a breeze to launch background services and servers inside an instance and test functionality from the outside world. I am not personally familiar with all the tools available, but I know I can count on the platform to support any future development I might do with big data and machine learning. Because Google also offers open source libraries such as TensorFlow which are an integral part of the platform, I know I will not be limited with scalability issues anytime soon when relying on this service.
Minpunten:
Like any software of comparable complexity, the hardest part is always getting started, because everything feels so overwhelming. When opening the dashboard for the first time, you can click on the menu to access an impressive long list of available products. Since there are so many aspects to learn, I would find it very useful to have a shortcut next to each item that goes directly to the most relevant documentation page on the subject. I have also been annoyed once or twice in a MOOC connected to a virtual instance on Google Cloud Platform when I was informed that the instance was ready but in reality I would still need to wait longer for all tools to be properly loaded, hence some confusion was generated from the fact that I would have to close and re-open the instance to see a new file appear or something similar. I wish the communication between GCP and the information available from a course connected to the platform could be more accurate. Knowing this little pitfall and knowing there is a very good documentation available with many tutorials does help to get pass those initial hurdles.

Fantastic Cloud Tools with Fast Deployment
Opmerkingen: I've enjoy using this product. It makes development time faster and it integrates very well with a wide range of Google Cloud / API products.
Pluspunten:
The Google Cloud Platform is an assortment cloud development tools - in my case, for web development. I utilize their Compute Engine, SQL, Storage, a number of their networking tools. I've found getting these different tools to work together has been very easy. One of the things I love about using Google Cloud is how easy it is to launch additional tools, create separate operating environments for testing, and bringing in 'tested' environments into production status. For the most part, I've found the Google Cloud Platform tools deploy very quickly, so there isn't much downtime as you want to ramp up additional resources. I've also found their billing platform one of the best if you have clients you're setting these resources as you can create independent billing accounts like you might in Google Adwords.
Minpunten:
My gripe isn't unique to the Google Cloud Platform - it may simply be the reality of the billing model used by most cloud providers I've used - costs can sneak up quickly if you're not paying attention. Since the costs associated with the cloud platform are all variable expenses based on items such as time in use, storage fees, or network thru-put, it often takes a few days for Google to properly offer up the estimated monthly expense. I've had a few painful surprises over the years so watch your billing estimates carefully. My next gripe is both positive and negative: Google Cloud is always improving their service offerings (this is positive), but often their improvements roll out as a different product with no clear way to migrate from say Compute Engine (older product) to their Kubernetes Engine (new product).

Cloud-Scale access to Google Apps, Storage, VMs, Renders, and Compute Engines
Opmerkingen: I've just started with Google Cloud Platform, bug they've been very generous in offering free small samples, trial offerings, and at that, the technology itself is inspiring, from the literature provided, and based on the descriptions. Essentially, a developer could scale an enterprise or computing task, or app at full Google thrust, at scale of course; yet it's not at all a paltry offering; significant and invaluable [previously] development tasks of an ad hoc nature are now, very simply put: offerings of tasty tidbits of modern day tech and lifestyle to-do; the results are visible, within a dedicated focused development session; connecting with the literature of the Google Cloud Platform app and the offerings therein will engender a deeper appreciation for how far Google's surfave-level apps have come, with the advent of Cloud computing and processing power, built on Google's rich foundation in logistics to carry out these tasks for the consumer, prosumer, developer, startup, and beyond.
Pluspunten:
This software platform is much more than one single concept of software: it's the starting point for accessing all of Google's Cloud Computing services as well as the background APIs that operate at code and scripting level inside of shells and IDEs. Ostensibly, any common computer task, client, service, object, or node can be made in to a Google Cloud Platform instance, from virtual disks and machines, to process rendering, to gaining custom access to nuanced aspects of the individual Google Apps which are offered as the common App Store offering for everyone; yet as for full functionality, API access is necessary. In addition, there are very notable, special, cutting edge technologies that truly transform the concept of user interface and user experience in the context of all things Google: some of the language and visualization Cloud Platform offerings are very exciting, a heralding of a new age in computing, marketing, and IoTs to come.
Minpunten:
It's a vast expanse of software development to wrap one's focus about. That being said, a developer would be lucky to get some hands-on, real-world context of what the Google Cloud Platform Apps and APIs are fully capable of. There's not a whole lot to dislike; Google Developers on every Google product offering constantly update their literature and sites, co make sure that the content is presented well and that users have the means to learn by doing; going forth with the flow of context in development that pops up, from moment to moment; I suppose it [could] be more fluid, but then again, I am a common consumer developer and this is a beautiful array of modern computing leverage at my fingertips, potentially. I just have to learn to use it.

Run your workloads in infrastructure powered by Google
Opmerkingen: GCP holds our ~70% of internal applications which were sometime back sitting in our on-prem infrastructure. GCP has not only reduced our costs but also reduced our manual overhead to over 90% of things being done by Google (majorly maintenance) and the remaining part of overseeing the deployed applications and their updates/ upgrades by our team. Since the backend is majorly handled by Google, our team gets more time to work on the actual product and make it more and more efficient.
Pluspunten:
1. The services provided by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) are one in its class and are powered by negligible downtimes and are available across multiple locations, all over the world. 2. Kubernetes as a service is one of the latest and greatest features of GCP. It lets you run your clusters without the manual effort of managing the overhead infrastructure and even the Operating system of the nodes. It is all managed by Google itself including the security and responsibility in case of breach is help by Google itself. Therefore you can only think about you own product and forget about any maintenance that is required in the backend. 3. Pub/Sub is also one of an amazing feature of GCP. It is a Redis like messaging service which can be utilized by you applications for internal as well as external publications and subscriptions.
Minpunten:
1. High internet bandwidth is required to utilize the platform smoothly and to have a smooth user experience. In case you have low Internet speed at your workplace, you will surely struggle with this platform. 2. UI elements at times tend to slip from the eyesight, either if they are too small to be seen or the color usage of those fonts are not correct. These small details shall not be overseen and shall be decided with deep thoughts and with actual user experience.

Great solution for cloud storage
Pluspunten:
Cloud storage and compute engine are very powerful tools that we have been happy with. We use these on top of firebase and it made sense to stick with GCP rather than AWS or Azure. The client-side cloud storage API is very easy to work with. We use compute engine to host a basic web server in a docker contains, and it has been a good experience overall.
Minpunten:
I have not figured out how and where to open a support case. Cloud console and the google issue tracker are one of several options. It can take several days to answer simple questions. Documentation is good, but spread out. For example, there is documentation for firebase functions and google cloud functions. The documentation is similar but not exactly the same, so it's unclear which we should be using. It would be nice to have more consolidated GCP documentation.

It helps
Opmerkingen: Some services are great while some featuers needs more upgrades
Pluspunten:
It is very easy to deploy / Manage certain services through GCP Console.
Minpunten:
The support needs some time to get into and reply before they start fixing things up, you need to take regular backups and keep up your service maintenance in scheduled bases to keep your data and software up & running.

The best internet cloud and you must use it
Opmerkingen: Very good, it has a wide variety of images that can be displayed in seconds with just a few clicks, connect everything in an intuitive and simple way, a wide variety of information to be able to carry out correct and functional deployments
Pluspunten:
It's like a Swiss army knife, it has everything you need in one place just a few clicks of the mouse away, the experience of the platform is very easy to use for those who are just starting out or those who are already an expert.
Minpunten:
I don't like your payment system, the way you invoice should have multiple options such as the use of a debit card or prepaid credit subscriptions for the use of virtual machines, just having credit cards keeps many from spending more
