Featured Reviews

Manimaran Tannimalai - PeerSpot reviewer
User interface consistency facilitates seamless project planning and design for specialized tasks
While Google has made efforts to address SAP loads, the company lacks a product specialist focus. They cover a broad range of products, which might affect their ability to compete well in certain niches. Google's strength lies in their adapted approach to specific tasks, as seen with SAP loads. Generally, their focus is widespread.
PriyankShrivastava - PeerSpot reviewer
A workhorse that enables high availability but support has room for improvement
There is always room for improvement. When a product is marketed, many claims are made, but in reality, it does not always perform as expected. The usability and real-time capabilities could be enhanced. The product can be difficult to use compared to how it is marketed. Technical support also lacks a timely response.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Any developer can study and implement what we do for cloud operations with the database side. It's not a big deal for developers. They can implement things using Google Cloud Storage."
"The responses from the technical team are fast...It is a stable product...We do have plans to increase the number of users since it is a scalable product."
"You do not need to install anything."
"There's no implementation process."
"Google Cloud Storage's most valuable features are that it's easy to use and navigate, and it's not expensive."
"From a stability standpoint, the solution is excellent. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is reliability."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage is valuable for storing unstructured data, such as text documents and word documents."
"The solution's most valuable features are its speed, unlimited space, and simplicity of use."
"We use it mostly in the cloud. It is stable, requires high availability, and works with large datasets seamlessly."
"The most valuable features of the tool are scalability and security."
"The technical support for the solution was very nice."
"It is stable, requires high availability, and works with large datasets seamlessly."
"One key feature is that you can make buckets private, requiring pre-authentication and using a specific URL for access. Additionally, the buckets are encrypted by default. The flexibility of public or private buckets and how you grant access are vital security features."
 

Cons

"I'd like the solution to integrate better with other clouds, including the Apple cloud."
"The user interface could be more intuitive."
"I would also like to be able to use my own tools and packages within this solution and also have a tool to visualize the data with graphics."
"The implementation is not as easy as Microsoft, and the process could be improved."
"The problem I face right now is that my data warehouse is being hosted on Google Cloud, however, integration between Google Cloud to Microsoft Azure is a big problem."
"The user experience needs to be simplified."
"Google Cloud Storage could improve by being more user-friendly."
"I don't find the solution very user-friendly."
"I could not find a load balancer in OCI similar to the support provided by Microsoft Azure and AWS."
"Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security."
"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks."
"The usability and real-time capabilities could be enhanced."
"Cost-wise, it is not an affordable tool if you allocate space, and try to use it some other day."
"The product can be difficult to use compared to how it is marketed. Technical support also lacks a timely response."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's about nearly $10,000 USD to use the services on GCP, however, Google gave us a good deal which is why we originally went with them."

"Oracle Cloud Object Storage might not be that expensive compared to on-premises solutions."
"Disaster recovery (DR) can be expensive."
"During the billing cycle, if I use the tool only for a day, I still need to pay you for a month."
