The solution's pricing is cheaper compared to other solutions. On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a two or three out of ten.

There are two types of pricing: the storage price and the processing price. Storage is very, very cheap compared to Teradata. But processing, it depends, like, how much of an amount of data you are processing. They charge the query you run on the big query.

The pricing is adaptable, ensuring that organizations can tailor their usage and costs based on their specific requirements and configurations within the Google Cloud Platform. You don't need multiple licenses; a single GCP BigQuery license suffices. Once you have this license in place, you will be billed according to your chosen pricing model. Google offers flexibility in pricing models to accommodate the unique needs of different customers, making it a versatile and customer-centric solution.
Price-wise, I think that is very reasonable. Like, I don't use a ton of computing when it comes to the platform, so I haven't ever really had to pay when it comes to the product. I really don't have to pay from month to month.

The costing model is a bit expensive as compared to its equivalent partners. If they can optimize the cost, it would be much better. Otherwise, people would step back. I would rate it a seven on a scale of one to ten, where ten is for the cheapest, and one is for being high priced.
BigQuery pricing can increase quickly. It's a high-priced solution. It would help if you researched how to reduce the price. It would take some time to find out how to set up BigQuery in a way that reduces its pricing.

In my previous company, we were not spending that much. You give more money away to the other tools from GCP. We paid maybe €200 or something like that and no more than that. This year, we pay €170 a month.

The price could be better. Usually, you need to buy the license for a year. Whenever you want more, you can subscribe to it, and you can use it. Otherwise, you can terminate the license. You can use it daily or monthly, and we use it based on a project's requirements.
One terabyte of data costs $20 to $22 per month for storage on BigQuery and $25 on Snowflake. Snowflake is costlier for one terabyte, but BigQuery charges based on how much data is inserted into the tables. BigQuery charges you based on the amount of data that you handle and not the time in which you handle it. This is why the pricing models are different and it becomes a key consideration in the decision of which platform to use.

I have tried my own setup using my Gmail ID, and I think it had a $300 limit for free for a new user. That's what Google is offering, and we can register and create a project.
BigQuery is an enterprise data warehouse that solves this problem by enabling super-fast SQL queries using the processing power of Google's infrastructure. ... You can control access to both the project and your data based on your business needs, such as giving others the ability to view or query your data.
