2. It has been in the market for a long time, but is still not as compatible with third-party tools as other cloud platforms.

3. The marketplace of Google does not provide many options to create built-in images.

4. The Platform is not available in many regions services like GPU or TPU are limited to a very small number of regions.

5. The platform is not cost-effective for small businesses.

6. Sometimes the VMs take a longer time to boot as compared to VMs on other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Used it in LinkedIn Premium to tailor resumes, write cover letters, and InMails to hiring teams -it was quick and content, context was relevant to my profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After generating some responses, it was repeated all over again -No new versions of the same response were available. If every click can produce a different response. It would be more helpful in selecting what would be the best suitable response for that specific requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how flexible Google Compute Engine is when it comes to setting up Virtual machines, It's easy to choose the right machine type for the Workload and Scaling up down is smooth. The performance is very reliable, and the integration with other Google Cloud products like BigQuery and Cloud Storage makes things seamless. Pricing is also fair, especially with discounts for long term use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup can feel a little complicated, especially around networking and IAM permissions. Also, If you are not careful about monitoring resources, the costs can rise pretty quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing I like about Compute Engine is ability to choose among a lot of instance type. It has different machine configuration that suits all kind of workload. if you have a smaller workload, just choose a smaller VM. VMs with GPUs are also available on this platform.

The booting time of GCP's Compute Engine Instance is more. AWS's EC2 is better on this front. When configured in managed instance group, during scale up, it can cause some delay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Google Cloud is one of the most reliable cloud hosting provider, I have been using it for the past 2 years and so far I did not face any issues. Mostly I use Google Cloud Virtual Machine with Static IP, they charge for the ingress and egress charges through that IP Address, the configuration I choose for the VM comes under always free tier and I don't have to may anything for the VM.

They don't have any dedicated technical support which I feel is a must for a cloud hosting provider Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GCP Computing engine is best computing engine I have ever used , and the best I liked in it is it's ease of creation and the speed of the process at all . if you want to connect to GCP VM instance it is an instant process after clicking the button. which is not in other cloud platforms.

I haven't encountered any downside through my experience with GCP Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is reliable and runs fast. The virtual machines start up quickly and I can scale the resources when I need to. I also like that I can choose the CPU and memory as per my requirement instead of only fixed machine types. It works well with other Google services like storage and Kubernetes.

The pricing is sometimes confusing and hard to track. If you are new, the setup can feel a little complex, especially networking and permissions. Also, if you don’t monitor usage closely, the bill can go high without you noticing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Google compute engine supports Managed instance group , which makes vms to autoscale based on the load . supports custom healthcheck , GCEs are highly reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GCE sometimes feels super costly if you are running multiple vms, the cost breakdown dashboard are not so easy to understand to the new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
