Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Google App Engine's most valuable feature is self-management. You do not have to manage the infrastructure underneath where all the functions are happening, such as load balancing deployment and version management, they are managed by the system itself.""Its ability to integrate with most devices helps users who have different or old devices.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that there is good documentation explaining the implementation part of it.""I've found that all of the features are valuable, especially the shared drive and the ability for multiple people to use their documents at the same time.""Seurity features - unauthorized individuals are unable to access certain applications.""The WhatApp feature is the most valuable.""Administering App Engine is simple; it has intuitive UIs and a very scalable app engine.""It is simple to use. It is much simpler than AWS. It is also very powerful."

Cons
"I think there's still a lot that can be done with Google Meet and the video conferencing part of it. It could be more dynamic in terms of what can be done with it.""I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five.""Data consumption of the device could be improved.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""There needs to be more directions in terms of how to use the solution.""Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine.""I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops. It is a bit complicated at the moment. We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops.""Difficult to assess how pricing is managed."

More Google App Engine Cons →

"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it.""The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution.""The backup functionality needs to be improved.""For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows.""Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I would like to have more free application with it. Some of the applications, I am paying more for them. I think that they must be free."

  • "If we don't know how to work with the tool, we might have some spikes in price."
  • More Google App Engine Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
