Saurav Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Integration with Kubernetes and flexibility improve our application deployment process
The logging could be improved; there's currently no intuitive way to filter logs on the Google console, especially for individuals who are not familiar with query languages. Our non-technical users find it difficult to access logs. Additionally, the user interface could be more user-friendly and intuitive compared to our previous experience with AWS.
Mehdi Hasankhan - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-install tool with good technical support that offers features like map searching and risk management services
The initial setup of Oracle Developer Cloud Service was really easy since it can be done with the request in the cloud, and after that, you can use it directly. I read the initial setup a ten, on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy. The solution is deployed on a public cloud. The deployment process took around a year.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I like most about Google Cloud is its stability. I also like that its GUI works fine for my company."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"The solution is fairly easy to deploy."
"Google Cloud's most valuable features are its performance and ease of access."
"Google Cloud is easy to use and accessible anywhere."
"My customers appreciate all the features that Google Cloud has to offer. They are looking for solutions for computing engines, storage, web hosting, and various other needs. The most useful feature depends on their specific requirements and how they plan to utilize Google Cloud. Each customer has their own unique set of needs and the Google Cloud provides a range of options to meet those needs."
"GCP has its own tools, and one of the services it provides alongside its hosting services or cloud services is monitoring or performance analysis for the environments they are hosting."
"I like that it is free. It's easy to use, and it's reliable."
"The APEX solution is the most interesting part of the Oracle Developer Service. APEX is the most cost-effective and most popular service for developers. Kubernetes and Docker services are also important and very much cost-effective, and helpful for developers. If we compare Oracle to other cloud services providers, they'll also be cost-effective. The financial involvement is also a good point because other cloud services charge for Docker and Kubernetes solutions. Oracle's offering is almost free. They only charge for the VM or virtual machine. This is also an interesting part for the developers as well."
"The solution's technical support is really good."
"With the multi-tenant architecture, you can migrate many databases to one instance. This saves a lot of money and administrative work."
 

Cons

"The analytics that they have are very focused. It serves Google and not really the client."
"The price can be lowered significantly."
"I would like to see Google Cloud become more competitive when it comes to price."
"The storage available for this solution could be improved, especially compared to a solution like Microsoft which offers 1 TB of storage. Google cloud offers only 30 GB."
"Lower pricing would make Google Cloud better."
"The product could always be a little bit less expensive."
"Workload management could be better. Their pricing could also be more flexible."
"Integration is always something that can be improved."
"t would be better if the open-source databases were managed. Some managed services for open-source databases are available in other cloud solutions, but Oracle doesn't have any. They should provision more managed services for open-source databases like MongoDB and PostgreSQL. These types of managed database services should be available in Oracle Cloud Service and others. There are other technical issues like the CDN network that is not directly configured to Oracle and needs support from a third party. There are also some services available in AWS and Azure that should be included in Oracle Cloud Service."
"Sometimes, I lose the cursor in the editor, and it disappears for no reason. It's hard to guess where I'm in the text, and I feel a bit lost."
"Improvements are needed in terms of the usage of the map chart and risk management services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the tool's price as an eight."
"The price of Google Cloud is affordable compared to others services. I pay monthly for the service."
"The solution is cheaper than Azure."
"This solution is worth the money we are paying. I would rate the pricing a three out of five."
"Pricing for Google Cloud could be improved. It would be better if it were lower."
"They provide user-based licensing plans. Its plan could be less expensive."
"Google Cloud is on the expensive side for us. I don't have exact figures on the cost per year or month."
"We pay for a license."
"I rate the pricing two on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Oracle Developer Cloud Service isn't an expensive product. It's definitely cheaper than any other enterprise cloud solution."
