"I love Firebase's notifications, crash analytics, and bug tracking. It gives you detailed reporting about app usage and users."
"What I like most about Google Firebase is that it's one of the easier options to host a website or app quickly."
"Google Firebase is one I like a lot because it gives us a little bit more power and accessibility when it comes to publishing apps a lot quicker and for the needs that we have."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable features of Google Firebase have been Analytics, Remote Config, and Crashlytics. Additionally, a lot of companies have used push notifications which is important. There is little maintenance required."
"If there's data added to the solution, there's a good record of it so it's easy to track everything."
"It's a reasonably priced solution."
"In terms of computer resource management and reduced cost, it is very, very effective. In large environments, it gives you a lot of flexibility to provide different services, like disaster recovery and business continuity with simple and great options because you don't have to spend a lot of time for maintenance, upgrades, and security."
"Microsoft Azure has a large scope, it can do many things."
"Technical support has been good over the years."
"The application services are the most valuable in Microsoft Azure. I'm not using them directly but I am using the function and the web applications. I don't need to pay a lot for the maintenance. I do not need to have a DevOps employee."
"There is the potential to scale."
"I appreciate that everything is basically shift forward from a security standpoint."
"If you're interested in going with Microsoft, my advice would be to do it. Everybody's using Microsoft."
"I would like to see faster data migration and some support for other languages in the next release."
"The only thing that I won't do on Firebase is the hosting side of things for a progressive web app because it feels like you actually still need to download the app first before you can actually get into the functionality of the app."
"The solution could improve by providing an improved SDK tool and automatic indexing for databases."
"Firebase's real-time information isn't technically real-time. It takes a while to upload user activity into the app. It's not as fast as Datadog, the other solution we use."
"Google Firebase could improve the ability to create our own reports, other than what's available on the dashboard. For example, if we want to customize the report or export the data, this is a large task."
"The solution needs to offer capabilities to work offline. Like Firestore, we should be able to do insertion, updating, and deletion offline."
"It should have cost optimization tools. Customers are required to use third-party applications to avoid usage complications."
"Technical support is lacking right now. It needs to be better."
"I would say an improvement could be allowing for more external, third-party tools. However, I think that's their vision, how they develop the product."
"Ease of use could be improved."
"The price could be improved as well as the interface speed, and technical support."
"There are so many services available that the interface is a little bit messy, and when you're looking for a specific service, you have to know exactly where to search."
"The cost of the product is too high. It would be ideal if they could lower it a bit for their customers."
"The response time and stability of Microsoft Azure need to be improved."
