"Transparent Pricing, Easy Integration"
5/5

I like how Google Cloud APIs are transparent about costs, offering tons of options inside their plans and solutions. It's great that I can stop them anytime. I find the initial setup very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud APIs?

It has a library big enough to get lost in it. Many popular APIs share names so you can get confused if you don't know what you want Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Cloud APIs, a flexible way to incorporate functionalities into our applications."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud APIs?

One of the biggest advantages of Google Cloud APIs is that we can incorporate dozens of features and services that Google has developed directly into our applications. Even many of them do not require that we are using Google's cloud computing.

Some of the most used APIs in mobile applications are the ones we know to locate a location, such as the Maps suite, but there are also others such as Firebase for storage and that work on demand and for Google infrastructure clients.

Enabling a service is very simple, and we generally do it with a single click and if we are duly registered we can start making calls from our applications and Google will charge only on demand and when we have exceeded the free quota described in some services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud APIs?

Activating a Google API is really very simple, and as we know, no additional costs are generated, but while we are using the services we have configured, we will be able to see how our monthly billing grows. Normally Google's costs are really low, but it is important to monitor how much money Google bills us per day, especially when we are starting a new development or application, since sometimes by mistake of our programmers in configuring the use of services, the costs have skyrocketed significantly.

There is a lot of documentation for the use of the multiple APIs that are available, but we will always need experienced and well-prepared developers to use the available services and functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
