Featured Reviews

Manimaran Tannimalai - PeerSpot reviewer
User interface consistency facilitates seamless project planning and design for specialized tasks
While Google has made efforts to address SAP loads, the company lacks a product specialist focus. They cover a broad range of products, which might affect their ability to compete well in certain niches. Google's strength lies in their adapted approach to specific tasks, as seen with SAP loads. Generally, their focus is widespread.
PriyankShrivastava - PeerSpot reviewer
A workhorse that enables high availability but support has room for improvement
There is always room for improvement. When a product is marketed, many claims are made, but in reality, it does not always perform as expected. The usability and real-time capabilities could be enhanced. The product can be difficult to use compared to how it is marketed. Technical support also lacks a timely response.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The solution is flexible and very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of Google Cloud Storage is that I can link with my PC."
"The solution is already stable and I have not encountered problems in this regard."
"The most valuable feature is the cryptographic technology."
"Its performance and security features are valuable."
"I would recommend Google Cloud Storage based on our experience, as it is fully reliable."
"What I like about this program, is that it's quite fast, because you pay for your usage."
"Access your files from anywhere, no installation necessary"
"We use it mostly in the cloud. It is stable, requires high availability, and works with large datasets seamlessly."
"The solution's most valuable features are its speed, unlimited space, and simplicity of use."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage is valuable for storing unstructured data, such as text documents and word documents."
"One key feature is that you can make buckets private, requiring pre-authentication and using a specific URL for access. Additionally, the buckets are encrypted by default. The flexibility of public or private buckets and how you grant access are vital security features."
"It is stable, requires high availability, and works with large datasets seamlessly."
"The most valuable features of the tool are scalability and security."
"The technical support for the solution was very nice."
 

Cons

"I would like the storage to be less expensive."
"The solution should improve its security and accountability."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"What would make Google Cloud Storage better is if it provided more storage."
"Google Cloud Storage could improve by having better integration with Microsoft Office files. When I open a Google document I would like it to be able to be opened with Microsoft. You can already open Google documents in Microsoft Office."
"This solution could be improved by increasing integration with other tools, like Microsoft."
"The solution must provide some accessibility features."
"The solution is good, however, it would benefit from increased storage without the additional cost."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage needs to have an additional bucket for security."
"Cost-wise, it is not an affordable tool if you allocate space, and try to use it some other day."
"I could not find a load balancer in OCI similar to the support provided by Microsoft Azure and AWS."
"The usability and real-time capabilities could be enhanced."
"Sometimes, there are glitches with applying policies. Even when the policy is correct, it might not work consistently. We need to troubleshoot to see if it's a user error or if the policy itself needs adjustment. It usually works after refreshing, but that inconsistency is a minor complexity."
"The product can be difficult to use compared to how it is marketed. Technical support also lacks a timely response."
"The solution should provide more customization and the possibility of doing more manual tasks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution was very cheap compared to other products."
"I pay a yearly subscription fee."
"We pay a monthly subscription."
"The price of Google Cloud Storage is reasonable when compared to other similar solutions."
"Its price is fine."
"The solution is free unless you want to increase the GB data allowance. There is a cost if you want to increase the size of storage space which is expensive."
"We do not have to pay for a license for Google Cloud Storage but there is a subscription that needs to be paid."
"Oracle Cloud Object Storage might not be that expensive compared to on-premises solutions."
"We have a yearly subscription for the product."
"Disaster recovery (DR) can be expensive."
