Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I also like its speed. It's basically built on Azure Blob Storage, which was already fast. But Azure Data Lake Storage adds the hierarchical structure for even better performance.""Azure Data Lake Storage is a user-friendly and easy-to-learn solution.""The tool's most valuable feature is security access policies.""It's a cloud-based tool within the Microsoft ecosystem, offering many benefits for data handling."

More Azure Data Lake Storage Pros →

"I use Keep to assign tasks to a team of programmers, which is very easy.""A complete integrated environment for our business. I get Google docs, Gmail, online space, and calendar where I can easily perform all documentation, storage, and communications online.""We haven't had any issues with scalability - we have over a thousand employees, and G Suite just scales.""We use Google Sheets extensively for things like sharing plans, data, test reports, and more.""The solution is very stable.""G Suite Enterprise is scalable.""The email is excellent.""Google integrates well with our system. G Suite has an open API, so you can connect any open system with Google capable of working with API. This is the main reason we use it."

Cons
"Pricing is always a factor. It could be more affordable.""The solution needs to improve APIs and make them more accessible.""Some terminology is not easy to understand when using some interfaces.""From an SAP perspective, direct connectivity to SAP systems is an area that could be enhanced."

More Azure Data Lake Storage Cons →

"I believe that Sheets could have a more functional and user-friendly interface. Google Sheets currently lacks macros and cross file links which can be found in Excel.""Scalability is not as good as we would like.""G Suite could offer something a little more solid in terms of chat — something that is a little more like Slack and integrates with everything. But, unfortunately, the chat is very basic there. It doesn't offer that many features and feels like it doesn't belong there.""I talked with G Suite recently because my G Suite has a temporary block. I communicated with the G Suite representative or Google representative, and he told me that I sent a lot of emails, so my email was temporarily blocked. But I know I have not sent more than 500 emails daily to reach the limit. I sent only 5,200 emails, but unfortunately, my G Suite account was temporarily blocked for 24 hours, and then he resolved it. I think they need to improve G Suite because this temporary block is not fair.""Google Mail's spam filter needs improvement. If I'm sending mail to another email user, sometimes it goes to the spam folder, and they won't know unless they check because they aren't seeing it in the primary inbox. They may miss important emails. At the same time, I'm receiving spam that shouldn't go to my inbox.""There's a bit of a learning curve.""The cost could be improved. It can sometimes be a bit confusing figuring out how we are actually being charged.""The UI could be simplified and made more user friendly."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The tool's licensing model is pay-as-you-go. Regarding pricing, there's always competition between Azure Data Lake Storage and AWS. They're quite similar, but to attract more customers, Azure Data Lake Storage could consider adjusting its pricing to be more competitive with AWS. This might make Azure Data Lake Storage a more appealing option for users."
  • "It's a pay-as-you-go model. Your charges are based on the amount of data you store."
  • "Compared to other options we've explored, I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being expensive."

  • "G Suite and Microsoft Office 365 offer products with similar functionality at several different price points. Zoho offer a more extensive range of products and attempts to provide all the applications required to run most small and medium-sized businesses."
  • "Careful consideration should be given to the different licensing options and provisions should be made for additional applications that may be required for your particular business."
  • "Traffic management tools may be required for larger setups and should be included in any pricing calculations."
  • "There are several areas where a G Suite implementation can reduce costs: lower license fees than some competing products, reduced hardware, and IT support costs."
  • "There are benefits that can provide a competitive advantage, e.g., improved productivity (with appropriate training), increased collaboration (with correct use of tools), flexible working - work from home or remote locations, easy to scale - fast onboarding of new employees, and ability to add and remove licenses, as required."
  • "We receive value for the price that we pay."
  • "The pricing is a bit on the higher side than normal. For a basic Google account it costs $100, but Enterprise is %150."
  • "The price per client within the business is too high."
