"Easy to Implement, Secure, and Integrates Smoothly—Great Free Tier"

5/5

What do you like best about Google App Engine?

The free tier is very useful. It’s straightforward to implement, which lets us focus on fixing issues in the code instead of spending time on infrastructure. It also integrates smoothly with other services. Overall, it’s very easy to use and provides plenty of security options, including firewalls and IAP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google App Engine?

The pricing might not be the best fit if your app runs 24/7, but in most other cases it should be fine - especially if your uptime is closer to 50%. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
