It provide support to lot of services. We can use the GCP for multiple services like compute engnie,app engine, cloud functions, AI platform, Kubernetes engine, Dataflow, Data proc, Bigquery, bigtable, cloud sql,datastore and many more. We can host our services in a private network i.e vpc and use a load balancer to expose our services. via cloud DNS. We can manage iam roles as custom roles for users for security. We can manage billing by notifying via stackdriver. All the logs can be viewed by stack driver logging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Cloud Console - Made my life easier!"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

Google Cloud Console has made easier to access the multiple projects within Google cloud hosting. One can create a private Map with radius highlighting different locations, I can create my apps, testing and perhaps rollout to production. Same dashboard enables me to cloud hosting for Db hosting, backup, testing, staging server and production. If someone is looking to explore Big Data and AI - Google Cloud is the most efficient and easy option to evaluate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

Google Cloud Console gives you one year of free credits to explore - after that you have to have a credit card mapped on the dashboard to make the payments! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Cloud Console: The Future Of Cloud Computing"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

What I love best with Google Cloud Console is that our options are limitless. We could generate any type of instance as per our requirements and scale (RAM, Hard Disk and CPU) the instance as the need came. Google Cloud Console centralized dashboard as well as its fully comprehensive and easy to use interface, makes it on of the best Cloud provider in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

No.1: I find the pricing a little high as compared to its competitors. No.2: Considerable IT knowledge is required to fully and securely operate Google Cloud Platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best cloud platform I have ever used. Surely its No:1"
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

Easy to use interface makes google cloud outstanding when compared with other service providers like amazon ec2 and IBM.

Google cloud instances are so fast and there won't be any major network delay even if you host it in distant regions.

Changing memory and CPU is so easy and anyone with basic knowledge can do it quickly. All the cloud options are listed under the single window like Firewall, Billing, Manage Instances and API etc,

I feel lots of comforts when using google cloud console rather than using Amazon ec2 console.

We can manage user access by directly adding ssh keys from the Google Cloud Platform itself. It is a nice feature since I can allow or disallow user access directly from the Platform.

And regarding the pricing, I heard amazon ec2 is little cheaper than Google Cloud, but in my case, Amazon ec2 is too difficult to set up and manage when comparing to Google cloud. So I always prefer easy and quick solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

Didn't experience or notice anything yet. I never had downtime after migrating to google cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast platform with very expensive customer support "
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

Google Cloud Console is very open to its public, anyone can try this excellent platform that keeps servers always up and with few drops of connection. In the hosting of web pages has given an excellent power to my sites so I recommend its use for these jobs. The processing speed is brutal and the interface to control these operations is as simple as Gmail, thanks to Google for making this simplification. With respect to graphics processing and app building Google Cloud Console meets the expectations but I prefer Amazon AWS for these operations because the cost structure is more user friendly.

The trial version of $300 has allowed me to try almost all the functions of Google Cloud Console because what I decided to host several of my websites and was subscribed in a modest plan, so far I have not had major problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

Sometimes I have data conflict problems, several of my colleagues have told me this and for now has not been resolved by the technical team that charges very expensive to advise on such problems. The access is anchored to Gmail and this represents a breach in the security of Google Cloud Console because if someone has access to your password could make changes to your data. This problem occurs with all Google products, they are very centralized when it comes to logging in. I would also like to see an increase in website management functions as this market is very broad and that is what I use the Google Cloud for. It also requires the incorporation of more free advice as online tutorials due to the high cost of support on this platform. And as every service on Google is centralized in a context menu and visual appearance very similar to any of its services, this is good to remember the brand but plays against an environment that is completely separate from the normal Google environment as Google Docs, Google Drive, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A solid and stable infrastructure "
What do you like best about Google Cloud Console?

Goolgle as an iconic company will always make us unconsciously trust their products to support the operations of our company. Google Cloud Console achieves this objective not only by the brand behind it, but also by an infrastructure that is being updated and expanded every day. I like the design of the main page, very attractive and easy to register with only a gmail account, another positive aspect are the flexible prices with no upfront costs and very interesting free credits. Being a massively used platform the changes are very constant and this guarantees a sustainable development of the platform. The speed of data processing is incredibly fast especially when you need to process faster graphics, data analysis or whatever. For this reason it is highly recommended for handling large volumes of data, e-commerce, game development and IoT.

The location of google data centers is great and considerably reduces latency and this is appreciated in the continued handling of many data that needs to be dispatched in milliseconds. The native application that I have used the most is CloudFunctions that have allowed me to create APIs through Phyton that have allowed me to create very complex processes and the results have been satisfactory.

We have also migrated part of our infrastructure to Google Cloud Console and as a result we have obtained very fast, stable and secure websites that have allowed us to get more customers and sales. There are many advantages beyond the cheap service and is that using one of the largest networks in the world we expose ourselves to less latency and data processing in less time, coupled with this a high security and performance of the latest technology that is capable of handling thousands of simultaneous connections thanks to a large network of servers worldwide that ensure the security of our company's information even in the event of catastrophes.

The web console is easy to use but you should familiarize yourself with it because if you are looking to manage a single function such as file storage, you will find many functions that only a trained professional will understand. OAuth is a security sale but should be debugged to make access faster than the typical two-factor authentication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Console?

Although it is common that technical support is not free in this type of platforms, you have to pay a few hundred dollars to be able to have email support, for telephone support you must pay a few hundred additional dollars. You can also support yourself in google forums or take specialized courses so that you do not depend on technical support. The above and lack of truly comprehensive courses to learn to manage the google platform in the cloud are the biggest deficiencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
