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.
Hossein Nezamabadi - PeerSpot reviewer

Cons

"I'd like the solution to integrate better with other clouds, including the Apple cloud."
"The user experience needs to be simplified."
"I am not sure about the reliability of the solution."
"Additional cost for more storage"
"I would like more storage available."
"The solution should improve its security and accountability."
"The solution could improve by adding an automatic removal of duplications feature."
"Google Cloud Storage could improve the integrations in a way Microsoft Azure is going about it. For Data Lake integrations, Microsoft Azure has a bunch of native pipelines available. All Google needs to do is add the same set or maybe even improve on the sets that they have. All the analytics, including the Data Lake, would then be able to sit in Google Cloud Storage."
"Deployment is overly complex and could be streamlined."
"It's already fast, but still, they could improve the speed."
"The solution needs to add an archive function."
"They should base their strategy according to the country and the regulations there, and focus more on the on-premises deployment."
"The product can protect from external data penetration, but the in-house IT team can access it."
"We cannot use the product with other brands."
"We encounter issues while restoring differential and cumulative backups."
"Oracle Database Backup Service is not a cheap solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company is paying a yearly subscription for the licensing of the solution. It is an expensive solution."
"If you're ready to pay, they're ready to give you as much storage as you want. Considering the features that Google Cloud Storage provides, the pricing is reasonable. So far, I'm still using the free service from them because I'm able to meet my requirements with the free subscription. Maybe, in the future, if a storage requirement comes, I'll pay for it or go for the license."
"Better pricing would be helpful."
"Its price is fine."
"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."
"The product is not expensive. If you are in India, the tool charges around six to eight USD if I consider the discounts offered by the product."
"The price of the license could be cheaper. We are on an annual subscription."
"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as a nine to ten out of ten."
"The platform is expensive."
"It's an expensive solution and is an area that needs improvement."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Oracle Database Backup Service a seven or eight out of ten."
"The platform is expensive."
"The only problem with Oracle is its pricing."
"Price is always an area that could be made better, as it is quite expensive."
