Google Cloud Code Reviews & Product Details

If you have worked on Google cloud platform(GCP), it is a bit difficult to manage codes, and infrastructure, and deploying together. Google cloud code brings the plugins for Cloud run and many other GCP features right in the IDE. The best thing is that you can use this in the Google Cloud Shell IDE, as well as your local IDEs such as Visual Studio Code, or IntelliJ, so you are not bound to the GCP as such.

Right now the APIs provided are in language Java, NodeJS, and Python, which I agree are the most popular languages used, But I'd like to have more backend languages under the arsenal just for the ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

By using Google Cloud Code, I was able to access and manage my cloud resources directly from my development environment. This saves a considerable amount of time, as I don't need to switch platforms to perform tasks such as deploying applications or managing databases.One feature that really impressed me was the support for Kubernetes and the ability to develop, debug and deploy applications to a Kubernetes cluster with ease. The automatic configuration and templates provided for different programming languages are also a big plus, allowing developers to get started quickly without having to set everything up from scratch.

Google Cloud Code offers a lot of functionality, it can be a bit overwhelming for someone unfamiliar with Google Cloud Platform or integrated development environments (IDEs). I also noticed that occasionally updates and new features can have bugs that take time to fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the best thing is the integration part. It allows integration with VS Code which is one of the most used code editor IDE and make the use easy for beginners and is easy to implement as well. It offers hints and suggestions making us code faster, also making debugging easier. As we can integrate it with IDEs, it supports the local development and testing speeding up the process. Also, let's not forget the good documentation and a supportive cummunity to help us always whenever we are stuck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the most distasteful thing is that we need to learn quite a lot of stuff before using Google Cloud code, as there are lots of features which can overwhelme any beginner in cloud. As being a google product, it is not a big help while working with other cloud providers while using their services.Also, being dependent on google cloud, it might cause some slow performance issues for few users working on big projects or on low resources.

1. Easy acces to GCP cloud environemnt and the resources.

2. Supports multiple IDE and environments

3. End to end devlopment of kubernetes applications

4. Support for AI assitance for quick reference and completion Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Coming from other cloud environments the sheer number of features can take longer to learn.

2. AI assistance can be better in code support.

3. Cloud code has good integration with GCP might not be better for other vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are using it and can say it is easy to implement, easy to understand, handy and can be used for even production environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have not encountered any disadvantages of this software so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Seamless Integration: Google Cloud Code perfectly synchronizes with other services provided by GCP, making Google Cloud Code the only platform you might need for cloud-native development.

Intelligent Code Completion: Lastly, the intelligent code completion is a major fundamental for increasing development speed by exploring correct suggestions depending on context. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Google Cloud Code is generally excellent, there are a few areas where it could improve:

Limited Customization: Certainly, it is highly beneficial to get the list of features, but there can be certain restrictions in regard to customization to the certain type of work or personal convenience.

Dependency on Google Cloud Platform: That is why it is worth mentioning that getting used to Google Cloud Code might be challenging if you are heavily involved in other cloud platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing i like about it is its seamless integration as it integrates easily with google cloud services and also the IDE is quite usefull too along with its smart code completion feature.It also provide debugging features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only thing i dislike about it is its cost for advance features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Google Cloud Code has been a fantastic addition to my development environment. It seamlessly integrates with my IDE (both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ, although I use it with VS Code only), making it easy to develop, debug, and deploy cloud-native applications. The setup is quite straightforward, and it provides built-in templates for Kubernetes and Google Cloud Functions, which are incredibly helpful for getting started quickly.

One of the standout features is the live debugging support, which allows you to diagnose issues in your applications while they're running in Kubernetes. The Cloud Run integration also makes deploying serverless workloads a breeze. I love how Cloud Code manages my configurations and keeps everything organized, reducing the time I need to spend on setting up dev environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

However, I do find the documentation could be more detailed for some advanced use cases. It would be great if there were more examples on customizing workflows for complex projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Intergration is pretty simple to implement once you get the hang of it and the trainging literature is good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a bit clunky to work through when first starting (as techies we like things to be intuitive so we dont need to look at instructions but to be fair the instructions are very good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It provides examples for a newbie like myself to get a jump start on creating new designs/configurations. It's simple and direct Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a ton of options as I ran into a few situations where I was restricted Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
