"GCP BigQuery - Great for Advanced Analytics"

5/5

What do you like best about Google Cloud BigQuery?

For me, BigQuery is very good at handling huge datasets (Petabytes). Since, it uses satndard SQL, it becomes very easy for me to query data with ease. The pricing model is also flexible as it charges based on data processed and stored. I can easily integrate this to platforms like PowerBI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is often difficult to navigate the interface, especially if there is a greater amount of content coming in to manage. Consequently, the invoicing and the pricing to manage this content increases which can become overwhelming and difficult to track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
