Support team is available and answers all the questions and it is also free which is good for personal projects
The very first thing that I really like about it is the support team. They're really available on Discord, and they answer all of your questions. I think it's free for personal projects unless you want to go to production. I haven't really used it that much, but the features that I have used so far, I have no issues with them.
Luís Silva - PeerSpot reviewer
Tool proves competitive with cost-effectiveness and speed while benefiting decision-making and integration capabilities, but shows room for enhancing creativity and handling large data contextually
There is another benefit in that Google Gemini is highly competitive from a cost perspective. The cost per token is very competitive. It's not the best - the Chinese models such as DeepSeek are better, but I can't use them. From a cost perspective, between European and United States options, Google Gemini is very competitive. It's not only its cost, it's also very performing. The time it takes to process the prompts and context information is very fast. It's one of the fastest models in the market. That's another advantage. There are other models which are also very good in quality but not as fast, such as Anthropic Claude. Google Gemini currently has a very good balance. The AI capabilities of Google Gemini are a multi-modal LLM which allows me to pass documents, images, and texts in the same prompt. Being multi-modal makes my life easier. I don't have to translate information before I can work with it. Google provides free tools to test scenarios, which speeds up development and reduces costs. It's a very fast and accurate model with quality responses.

Pros

"The very first thing that I really like about it is the support team. They're really available on Discord, and they answer all of your questions."
"I would rate my overall experience with Google Gemini as a nine out of ten."
"Google Gemini has the best combination of scalability, costs, performance, and accuracy."
"Google provides an out-of-the-box solution with a comprehensive ecosystem of tools."
"The most beneficial aspect of Google Gemini for me is that it's able to do searches much better."
"It is like having an expert at my fingertips for those out-of-scope queries."
"The best features for my use cases with Google Gemini are its dynamic LLM model that can perform dynamic searches, which is wonderful for factual searches to understand numbers and to generate real-time answers."
"Recently, Google Gemini has been very stable, without performance issues, even handling network problems smoothly with a retry."
"The most valuable feature of Google Gemini is its ability to function as an intelligent assistant, providing accurate answers to natural language queries and performing translations."
 

Cons

"Cohere has text generation. I think it is mainly focused on AI search. If there was a way to combine the searches with images, I think it would be nice to include that."
"Sometimes Google Gemini could hallucinate and provide incorrect information, which needs explanation for correction."
"Google Gemini needs more accurate answers and the ability to export data to Excel or Google Sheets."
"When I have reached out to Google Support, it's been very limiting. I would rate Google at about a five."
"The binning process could be more intuitive, especially when grouping data into categories like age groups."
"Google Gemini's biggest strength is also its drawback; it's excellent for generating reports and working with data in real-time, but it isn't the most creative LLM for tasks such as creating a digital storytelling campaign or crafting marketing messages."
"Google Gemini could improve its functionalities compared to other tools like ChatGPT, especially in the customization options, Canvas mode, and web search tools, which aren't as advanced."
"I conducted some research using Google Gemini, and sometimes the results are not correct. For example, when I asked for information about marketing and inquired about the sources used, the sources were not relevant or had no relation to the subject I was researching."
"I do not have a special recommendation for improvement."
