Google Scale Reviews & Product Details

The idea of browse based Virtual Machines is in itself a fantastic thing. Not only is google scale a very innovative platform, it is incredibly good even though it is operating in somewhat of a niche corner of the internet.

Setting up the virtual machines was a breeze, and very intuitive. Thanks to this, having them go live and be commercially available was as easy as 1 2 3.

Switching between projects is also very convenient (and easily overlooked, after trying some alternatives in which going project to project was a bit of a hassle, the simple and obvious toggle is very much appreciated).

£300 free credit to try the platform is also very welcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not a fan of the (somewhat sly seeming) billing system.

What each function and thing is going to cost is not too clear from the get go, and with the billings page being separate it makes accurately and precisely forecasting costs kind of hard. The £300 free credit gives you a good indication of what will cost what, but it is by no means obvious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The entire idea of using a browser for creating instances of virtual machines and configuring them is just amazing. The user can use Google's GUI to edit and add configurations to the VM instance, and deploy them straight to the cloud for commercial use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to be honest. It takes a little time to start up the instance every single time Google Cloud Platform page is loaded or the VM instance is restarted, but that is obvious due to the fact that the VMs are super heavy processes to run on a browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very efficient and your options are simple but effective, being able to export the file in a wide variety of formats is very useful besides being able to share it quickly with only having the mail of the colleague to whom the document will be sent.This program has really been very useful for me, it has helped me a lot to obtain what I am looking for both in my work environment and in my field of studies.

There is very little to dislike about this solution. Every solution has a few missing features or quirks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I like the most about Scale is its ability to predict. I know there are algorithms that they have gathered from recent searches but I like how quick they are to anticipate what I will need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing that I do not like is the fact that there are so many advertisements once the search is compelted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple and yet very integrative system, very easy to use. I really like that it creates VM and configures them. It's a very precise program. Useful in both inside of work and out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not dislike much, but i think it does take a while to familiarize with. Also, it's very hard to find. I tried to recommend it to a friend and they had difficulty location where they could try it out. Maybe offering a free trial for 10 days would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
