Automated mobile behavior has transformed how our team gathers and processes customer insights
The best thing I appreciate about Genymotion Cloud is that I do not have to individually take on the burden of having to install the Android OS on individual instances. I can directly use the already built-in Android operating system device through Genymotion Cloud, and this cuts almost 50 to 60% of my workload. It is reliable, and the communication between these instances is easier. Putting them inside a VPC, I could save costs in terms of data transfer by using private IPs, and that is what I appreciate about it. Genymotion Cloud has positively impacted us by helping us gather insights that could then later be processed by our business intelligence team to identify potential customers and thus impact directly our revenue streams. Genymotion Cloud instances help us cut a large amount of time gathering insights because these instances are run for 24 hours, and we rotate the instances to gather insights. This helps us reduce the time to generate insights by perhaps 70 to 80% compared to doing it ourselves or building a farm to perform automation. Using Genymotion Cloud, I can run multiple instances, perhaps 100 to 150 or 200 instances at a time of Android devices running in parallel, performing certain actions of automating user behavior. This gives me an unparalleled advantage to the regular process of generating and gathering insights from individual devices. If I were to install Android OS onto an AWS instance by myself, that would be a tedious process for me. That is why I appreciate using Genymotion Cloud instances.

Streamlined marketplace listings have empowered sales teams and simplify cross-cloud administration
Tackle Platform is an easy-to-use tool, which is good, but I imagine if the Alliance team ever wanted to migrate from Tackle Platform, it would be very complex to do that because all of our marketplace activity is deployed via this stack set owned by Tackle Platform. The lock-in feature is strong with Tackle Platform, which is a risk for people to consider if they were to use it. Additionally, I understand the pricing can be quite high, as they charge a platform fee plus a percentage of marketplace revenue generated. For organizations selling heavily through Tackle Platform, it could become quite expensive.

Pros

"Using Genymotion Cloud, I can run multiple instances, perhaps 100 to 150 or 200 instances at a time of Android devices running in parallel, performing certain actions of automating user behavior, which gives me an unparalleled advantage to the regular process of generating and gathering insights from individual devices."
"Scalability in Genymotion Cloud is exceptional, as we can start with one device, then scale to 10 and to 100 in a second without any hardware limitation."
"The advice I would give to others looking into using Genymotion Cloud is that the return on investment is straightforward because on day one, you can see the value."
"Genymotion Cloud has positively impacted my organization by being more cost effective."
"Tackle Platform has positively impacted my organization by abstracting the technical layer for the Alliance team to create marketplace listings, which is very important as their focus and time should be on sales activities."
 

Cons

"I believe Genymotion Cloud can be improved in uptime, cost, and performance possibilities."
"Genymotion Cloud, in terms of cost, although it offers a lot of prerequisites for running Android applications within itself, could be improved regarding the pricing point of Genymotion Cloud instances."
"Genymotion Cloud can be improved with better ARM native platform performance."
"One definite drawback is Google services; we do not have Google Play services available out of the box, which is problematic."
"The lock-in feature is strong with Tackle Platform, which is a risk for people to consider if they were to use it."
