Google Cloud Scheduler Reviews & Product Details

Cloud Scheduler allows us to schedule cron jobs in an incredibly easy way through either a graphical interface or the gcloud API. It solves the need for us to set up these cron jobs within GCP instead of our application, which is ideal for us for serverless resources we currently operate.

Google Cloud Scheduler is an easy solution in various scenarios, but it may be worse in the case of always-on services (e.g. a Kubernetes cluster), where the cron job logic living in a separate service makes things more complex. In this scenario we'd opt for a Kubernetes cron job schedule to keep things simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most is how simple it is to set up and just let it run. We use it to trigger a Cloud Function that moves daily SFTP files from our 3PL partners and retailers into GCS, and it’s been very reliable. The configuration is straightforward, and once it’s in place, there’s very little maintenance needed. It does exactly what you expect without overcomplicating things.

The UI feels a bit bare-bones. I wish there was better at‑a‑glance visibility into job history without digging into logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Google Cloud Scheduler provides a Graphical User Interface for creating and managing jobs which makes it easier to manage and create new jobs whereas the default batch job of linux might need prior technical knowledge to run. It provides 3 jobs per month for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The number of free jobs per month is much less, that is only 3, It is good for testing purposes but if you planning on using it you gotta pay for it and it is currently $0.10 per job run after 3 free jobs which in my opinion is costly, whereas linux batch job does not need any fees to run.

Best thing I like about is the easy setup, It is very easy to setup with rest endpoint as well as pubsub, also the monitoring part of this is very clear and robust Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only problem we noticed in cloud scheduler is a lack of customization, while we are having very complex and specialized scheduler requirements then it becomes very difficult, often we need to create multiple schedulers for that and as per the pay-per-use system it becomes expensive.

I like the feature of scheduling a job based on specific timezone which is cool because we have specific pipelines that needs to be run based on the given time of every region we handle and it's very handy to know that we can easily select the proper timing for that one.

The frequency parameter. I know it's some kind of standard with other tools as well to use series of numbers and asterisk to determine the frequency of the job. But it could be improved by adding an option for dropdown options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
