It has different APIs for different projects which is really impressive. It also has IoT API which is new and really great to have that console. It has its own machine learning interface which is really easy to use and also it has made data analysis really easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

Everything comes with a price. Cloud platform can give some portion (upto 1 GB I guess) for free. But anyone can buy storage with little price per month. It is not that costly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Google Cloud Source Repositories:

Anyone wants to have an experience in IoT or in machine learning should be using this platform. Google cloud platform offers different plug ins for several applications. In some cases, machine learning algorithms needs high capacity to run. Google cloud platform can be a very good solution for that. Also, most of the IoT devices don't have any IDE to develop. Google cloud server can take care of that as well. For beginners, it is a great opportunity to work and learn new programming platforms through Google. So use google. Because, It is good, it is easy, and its google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The breadth of options, the ease of implementing the software and customizing it to make it your own and give it the professional signature of your business, and the approachable nature of customer service are just a few components that make Google Cloud so phenomenal.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

I can’t really pinpoint much of an area I dislike to any degree, but the one suggestion I do have would be to consider implementing more software updates on a timelier schedule. I think it would solve a few headaches from time to time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Google Cloud Source Repositories solving and how is that benefiting you?

In terms of data, we now have almost limitless storage capacity and a plethora of outlets from which to choose to assign storage. Google has made my company more organized, more structured and about a thousand times more stable and secure. Now that we have acclimated to a cloud state of being, I don’t see how we could ever go back. Public, private, hybrid - everything makes more sense with Google Cloud.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Code in the git repository cloud"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

Being a google is a question that is very safe, you can open your repository for free, it has related tools to check the debug data along with the code during the execution time of the application. It has a built-in code browser where you can view your source code from the cloud, you can have several private repositories, it has integration with several repositories such as git and bitbucket, so you can transfer your already created repositories to the google cloud repository. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

I think that currently it does not enjoy the popularity or the popularity of several repositories like git or bitbucket, but in spite of this I do not see any weak point. Basically with having a gmail account you can have access to open an account and create your repository... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Google Cloud Source Repositories:

Connect your old bitbucket or git repositories with the google cloud, since the integration between the google cloud platforms are already taking over the market, besides the diagnostic tools that Cloud Platform has, like Debugger and Error Reporting, can use the code of your Git repositories to locate specific errors in the code deployed without the users suffering slowdowns. It enjoys a very reliable storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Google Cloud Source Repositories solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having everything centralized in google servers is a great advantage because it is much safer to have your projects on google servers and you can connect with all the services in the google cloud, which is easier integration between platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's still new but looks like it will be coming strong"

3/5

What do you like best about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

It's made by Google and its solid servers and it can put Bitbucket and GitHub in one place so that's a plus I guess Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Source Repositories?

The lack of Pull Request support on the Google Source Repository is quite a deal breaker for proper big projects, and the lack of integration with third-party CIs and tools. Still can't beat GitHub Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Google Cloud Source Repositories:

This is simply an issue of whatever floats your boat, all of these companies give the same thing so it's just a matter of who has the prettiest interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Google Cloud Source Repositories solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cost-wise it's cheaper to use, costing about $1 per project user, and it's backed by Google's infrastructure which is a plus so no downtime. But since it's still fairly new, until they get it perfect, I might stick to GitHub for familiarity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
