Simple to get started with and offers integration features in multiple programming languages
The product provides integration features in multiple languages, such as Python, JavaScript, Golang, and all other languages. Google Firebase has documentation, which might seem a bit confusing, but one with decent knowledge can easily explore and get started with Firebase quickly. Before jumping into any cloud infrastructure, the tool should analyze how much it would cost to run the database. Google Firebase provides a certain number of reads and writes per day, which is approximately 40,000 reads and writes. If there are more than 200 to 300 active users per day, there will be plenty of reads and writes to the database. In such a case, one can't use Google Firebase and has to upgrade to Spark, which is where it is based on usage. The tool is fairly simple to get started with. Utilize all the features can get very complicated. One must be a pretty good developer who has a lot of experience to be able to utilize the best features. It gets really complicated over time. The basic functionality and basic usage are easy to use and easy to get started. There are plenty of deprecated versions, and frequently upgrading them causes inconvenience. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Excellent support but it is a costly solution
The solution is working okay. But we are facing issues with the network because in our country, Yemen, we have some trouble. The country is very crazy because of the war we have. So, we are facing issues with the network. Most of the customers complain about the network communicating with the Cloud. We went with the Oracle solution for Interconnect because they are the preferred solution for that. But it is very unstable and the customer refuses to deal with it. They cannot do anything because Oracle recommends a stable network but we do not have that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I found the flexibility of handling and dealing with database through EDL to be very useful."
"The most valuable features of Google Firebase have been Analytics, Remote Config, and Crashlytics. Additionally, a lot of companies have used push notifications which is important. There is little maintenance required."
"The most beautiful feature of Google Firebase is that it gives you a lot of functionalities out of the box, without you having to develop or having to complete a solution. For example, identity management is integrated, and security is out of the box, particularly security for the user and the ability of each user to see his data. I also like that Google Firebase has a really good performance and is comparable to MongoDB. It's on the same level, and sometimes, it's on an even higher level than MongoDB. Other functions that Google Firebase has that I find valuable include information dissemination, mail automation, and SMS, available out of the box. Another valuable feature of the solution is that it allows you to develop some functionalities on the server side, so you can write JavaScript functions on the server side and use those functions quite easily. Google Firebase gives you almost a full backend environment out of the box without you having to do any deployments or a lot of administration because all administration is given out of the box."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that its storage can be easily used in our mobile applications."
"Google Firebase has a lot of services like storage, Firestore, and push notifications."
"It is a completely reliable product."
"It is a stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature I like is about the realtime. Updates are also very fast."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
 

Cons

"We use Firebase for media processing and we are growing more. As we grow, the pricing goes high and it's high compared to competitors. The solution is expensive."
"As we are a small team, we have only utilized some features, however, all those features have been very useful, and there is no problem."
"In terms of DevOps, such as CI/CD deployments and integrating webhooks with GitHub, GitLab, or other platforms, Firebase does not offer those capabilities at that level."
"They have discontinued some very valuable features, including the Firebase UI that I used to log in."
"The initial setup is not exactly straightforward."
"What I hate most about Google Firebase is that it has many different versions and releases new ones frequently."
"The product's user interface for developers needs improvement."
"The solution could improve by providing an improved SDK tool and automatic indexing for databases."
"Most of the customers complain about the network communicating with the Cloud."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate Google Firebase a seven or eight out of ten for pricing."
"We are using the free version of Google Firebase."
"The pricing plans indicate it can get very expensive."
"They have a free tier that will cover most projects. For more intensive use, you pay as you use it, but the price is very cheap."
"My company makes very minimal payments toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"The tool is affordable."
"The monthly cost is based on writing data and queries to the database."
"The solution's price is based on the number of consumers."
