Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Provides visibility into the performance uptime.""I like the monitoring feature.""Google's technical support is very good.""It's easy to use.""The features that I have found most valuable are its graphs - if I need any statistics, in Kubernetes or Kong level or VPN level, I can quickly get the reports.""The cloud login enables us to get our logs from the different platforms that we currently use.""The most valuable feature is the multi-cloud integration, where there is support for both GCP and AWS.""Our company has a corporate account for Google Cloud and so our systems and clusters integrate really well."

"Automates processes and allows reports and statistics to improve the speed at which changes and assets are managed.""The stability has been very good over the years."

Cons
"It could be even more automated.""Lacking sufficient operations documentation.""The logging functionality could be better.""It could be more stable.""While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace.""If I want to track any round-trip or breakdowns of my response times, I'm not able to get it. My request goes through various levels of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and comes back to my client machine. Suppose that my request has taken 10 seconds overall, so if I want to break it down, to see where the delay is happening within my architecture, I am not able to find that out using Stackdriver.""This solution could be improved if it offered the ability to analyze charts, such as a solution like Kibana.""The product provides minimal metrics that are insufficient."

"The solution should offer better integration with other tools from a service management perspective.""Product documentation is lacking, and sometimes, incorrect. Having better documentation will allow business analysts and data center personnel to rely on the Micro Focus help desk less."
