"User friendly interface"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

1. Able to access all the resources in a few steps or we have multiple ways to access the resources

2. Easy to understand any new resources with minimal description provided in the console.

3. Provides recommendation on most used services.

4. Provide easy access to notification and cloud shell.

5. Comparison to other cloud providers implementation or use of any resources have more advantages in GCP.

1. Sometimes we see lags while interacting with the console.

2. Only GCP organization accounts have access to contact support.

3. There are some resources in GCP that provide the same service, but we have 2 different services. Choosing between them and providing the best to the customer is somewhat difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most flexible, intuitive, approachable major cloud"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

You can build your infra here, get all the insights about settings and parameter, you can even have automated advises about permission scopes and cost-effective decisions out of the box. Customer support is really great. Very easy to implement infrastructure, even with complex things like isolation and service meshes for Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

Google Workspace integration. Sometimes it's hard to build a bridge between groups and IaM, lack of org-wide service accounts, billing can be a bit more approachable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Impactful practical experience with Google Cloud Console"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

Google Cloud Console helps us to improve our command line knowledge with its facility of several integrated frameworks and libraries. It comes up with built-in features which makes me feel easy to work on linux CLI, Bash CLI, working on python related commands, getting a hands-on docker and kubernetes experience and so on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

While practising the challenge labs in google cloud console, sometimes it used to feel that the console would take a bit more time to finish the running status of a command entered. This is one of the drawbacks I had faced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google cloud is great for engineers"
4/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

The Google Cloud console is good and intuitive. One gets all the information of the cloud infrastructure in a single view as a single pane of glass. One also gets to create, manage all components of their infra on the Google console. The security components can also be managed, logs can be seen on the Google console. Google also provides Customer Support and hand holds its customers to get onboarded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

The Google console can be a little overwhelming for new users, but the search functionality is great and will guide you to the product component in the infrastructure. Once inside the component, the right pane has a help column and shares detail of the working of the component. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very easy to work with"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

I liked that it was very easy to get pricing for cloud time and that most menus are fairly easy to navigate, with some exceptions. As a whole, I like Google Cloud because if I exceed my initial computing capacity (at least the last time I used it), the console asks if I need more, and I do not need to close it out and reinstall everything and reset the IP number in the file share. It's very convenient.

I also like that you can set up separate project folders in the console. It's is great for handling multiple projects and keeping them separated, much like keeping separate folders or notebooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

I do not have too much to say about the console that I really dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Had a smooth experience setting up instances in GCP and also with cluster setup in GKE"
5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

The insights which showed how my VMs can be configured the right way in order to save on billing. That's the authenticity and customer centric approach I liked the most.The help manuals available make it more easy to use and implement. Facing any queries, the support team helps quick though I'm not a high revenue client. Its vast number of features and super easy integrations make it more frequent to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

The UI accessibility can be made a bit better like AWS. Navigation between different marketplace items can be improvised more to give the user a smooth experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Interact"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

The best thing is it is user-friendly, even a beginner/novice can work their way around the console which makes it a good product in terms of marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

I worked my way around the Google console, and have observed this: Whenever I open the cloud shell, there is a delay and sometimes I have to close the other services to work on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
