Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/29/2023 "Using Cloud Run in connection with Cloud Functions" 2.5/5 What do you like best about Google Cloud Run? It operates effectively, I haven't had surprise issues with the product being able to handle a new function being created or swapping between connection points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Google Cloud Run? The UI is not as intuitive as other google products. There is a lot of information available when I open a Run instance and it is difficult for me to determine what is important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Google Cloud Run solving and how is that benefiting you? We use Cloud Run to be able to call and monitor our Cloud Functions, its use is kind of incidental to that goal. It is nice to be able to deploy a cloud function and have a connection to one of our data sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
