Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Everything is simple and useful. The initial setup is not challenging.""The support for ephemeral instances has been particularly valuable for me. It allows me to significantly reduce costs for temporary virtual machines by automatically destroying them once they are no longer needed, which can result in cost savings of up to 90 percent. Additionally, the solution is easy to use.""Google is managing all hardware. You don't need to provision or pre-provision your computer engine.""The solution helps to direct SSH into the machine at the click of a button. It also helps to deploy container images right from the UI. There is no need to manage the containers on the machine. I also like the tool’s Spot provision model.""One of GCE's best features is the managed instance groups.""The main motive for choosing Google Compute Engine is pricing.""The most valuable feature is auto-scaling.""From a feature perspective, I find API integration, automation capabilities, and features like preemptive and Spot instances valuable. Migration tools have also been useful."

"The initial setup process is more accessible than one of its competitors.""The pricing and services that surround the solution are great. For example, if we need to find a partner in a country where they do not have a cloud, they will help us find that partner. Solutions such as Amazon and Oracle do not offer this level of service."

Cons
"There have been instances when a customer has tried to deploy a certain number of VMs inside a project, and they come across quota issues.""It is not very user-friendly for non-experienced users""Google Compute Engine needs to have multi-region support. It would also be nice to have a tracking mechanism.""Google Compute Engine does not have many options at a lower tier level. If they had more options it will be better. For example, Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure, have more options and different types of instances, of VMs we can select.""The licensing process is not a very straightforward process.""It would be better if there was an option to change the background. Like in Gmail, there's an option to change your theme.""The biggest problem is that it's got a very archaean and complex security environment that has to be very carefully set up and is easy to break.""I rate the product's stability around five to six out of ten."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It's $60,000 to $70,000 a month to replace about $10,000 a month in data center costs."
  • "Google Compute Engine is not the least expensive solution. Microsoft Azure, and Microsoft One, are offering a less expensive solution. The price is based on usage. Whenever we use it, we have to pay for only usage. It is a pay-as-you-go model."
  • "Google Compute Engine's pricing is flexible and the best of all other alternatives."
  • "In terms of improvement, one is definitely the licensing piece. So there is a feature, the BYOL (Bring Your Own License) licensing piece, to bring your own license. It is not that straightforward. It requires some support from Google to get it sorted, access those licenses, and configure those licenses."
  • "I rate GCE's pricing a five out of ten since it's affordable."
  • "Google is providing money for learning Google Compute Engine. They offer a $300 free trial to new customers. Any beginner can easily get started."
