"Easy to deploy your code with Google Cloud Run"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

Google Cloud Run provides you a platform to deploy and mange your applications with worrying about the actual resources. Easy to use UI and tools like Cloud Run button, CLI command line interface for advance features, is available to manage our application. Another benefit is the flexibility and scalability is taken care by Google Cloud Run.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

When it comes dislikes you can't find many in Google Cloud services. It usually depends on the specific conditions scenario how you are utilising Google Cloud Run. When it comes to a beginner i don't think any of the downside,but when you deep down in the cloud platform and serveless service cold start for container and runtime support for the limited language might be a downside.

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

Google Cloud Run provides a perfect platform to deploy and manage the applications with advantage of flexibility and automatic scaling.

"My experience with Cloud run as a beginner"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

The feaure most prevalent for Cloud run is of course it's ability to deploy and manage apps. It makes it simple to start distribute the app in the language that you like.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

For me atleast I haven't yet run into any issues with Cloud run and the services it provides. I know from studying to ACE exam that Cloud run that the expenses can get a bit higher on Cloud run compared to other solutions.

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

The main problem that Cloud run is solving is to let have a fully managed environment, that is scalable and accepts any language that the apps might be written with. For me it makes it simple as a Cloud Engineer to distribute the apps globally and without having to think much about maintenance of containers.

"Overall good experience"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

Consistency, responsiveness and customization of the databases. Supports a lot of different databases.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

It takes a lot of time to setup a db, more than 15 minutes just to create one. There is no free tier and it needs additional setup to expose to public internet.

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

Easily set up an SQL service for internal use or the backend of applications. Suppose you want to run a fully managed instance and not worry about infrastructure; it is the best choice.

"Easy to use SQL"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

It was incredibly easy to get started with Google Cloud SQL, and yet it is still packed with powerful features. I didn't have to wait for any other admins or operations staff to set up a SQL instance for me, which was fantastic. The service worked exactly as expected, and I was able to obtain the appropriate amount of compute power for my needs thanks to the cloud-based nature of the platform.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

I have been using Google Cloud for the past two years and have not encountered any problems. Overall, I have no complaints about the platform. Google Cloud offers a wide range of services for software development, making it a comprehensive solution for any project.

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

Using Google Cloud allows me to avoid the hassle of managing hardware and software for my database. I don't have to worry about keeping a server running or performing upgrades on the server side, as the platform handles these tasks.

"Review - Google Cloud Identity-Aware Proxy"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

I like the authentification process it undergoes for everything connected to the proxy to prevent any fraudulent users from accessing my private data and information.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

Personally, I have not experienced any downside(s) to this feature yet. I think it is very easy to use except for a slight issue of connecting and setting everything up but that is a learning curve with anything.

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

"Google Cloud Integrated VPN Substitute"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

In the current remote-work age, setting up a company-wide VPN for security is a hassle and a bother to maintain (you don't want it going down when everyone is offsite). Google has provided an ideal tool to grant verified users access to secure systems.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

Set up takes some time, requires your users understand what is going on and is not a match if you're not already integrated with google cloud. Which you may not be because... google.

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

It solves the issue of when you need a VPN but you don't want a VPN--as I said above, when you've got a company working fully remotely and don't want all the hassle inherent.

What do you like best about Google Cloud?

I really like the way Google Cloud allows users to access otherwise hidden information with their APIs for google products and makes development way easier and less of a headache.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

It's free tier for the cloud compute engine is extremely limited and the pricing is confusing, probably intentionally to make you pay more. A more consumer centric oriented model would be nice.

What do you like best about Google Cloud?

Data privacy and confidentiality is ensured with end-to-end data encryption with CloudKMS giving organizations the confidence to share and manage the data freely. The services are ever-evolving and incorporate the changes in the dynamic data space. Its suitability for small and large businesses alike makes it attractive to all. The data processing and analysis technology are really forward. You can get tangible insights for makring important business decisions.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

As the platform is very dynamic and vast, mastering the platform to the T can be a task. You require to be constantly keeping yourself updated with all the latest improvements. Though the services are vast and varied, it's facing competition with some of the best players in the market whose offerings are even more diverse. The user interface of the platform is not most friendly. It can get a little confusing while navigating the space.

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

Specially in design of GUI part of apps i am using these. With these repositories almost 50 percent headache of creation removes from our head. Any one can import these repositories in there code so they have to focus on only critical part of code.These are really fantastic which not only save time though have great features which are dificult to create our own so we have to just focus on core part of code. Thats why i really like these repositories which not only save my time but also increase the speed of developing and these can be run wherever you are.

"I found it reliable and accurate enough"
What do you like best about Google Cloud?

All things considered, it understood what I said 90% of the times I used it if for some reason I didn't have the time to write something down. I mostly used it for Italian queries.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud?

The fact that sometimes I had to get very close to my device to make myself understood by Google Cloud Text-to-Speech, but that might be because of the external noise. Otherwise, I would use it more frequently.

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

It helped me save the time I would have spent writing the query I needed to look for on my browser. It especially helped if for example my hands hurt or I felt too tired to type anything on the keyboard.
