Google Cloud Storage Reviews

We use the product to build applications. 

The combination of Firebase features, including storage, the Firebase database, and authentication, has been the most valuable. Firebase offers Google authentication, which is convenient for our needs. Additionally, Firebase provides email authentication and Gmail authentication, which are easy to set up and integrate into our applications.

We utilize Google Cloud Storag's automated backup functionality for data backup. Once enabled, it automatically backs up our data at regular intervals. It is integrated with other services, such as Stripe, for collecting payments, and SendGrid for email communication.

It's easy to use Google Cloud Storage to manage data. You can create buckets and interact with the storage easily. However, we primarily use it in conjunction with other features, particularly Firebase, which provides storage options integrated within it. We haven't logged into GCP specifically to create buckets because the functionalities we need are already available within Firebase.

The tool should be cheaper. 

I have been using the product for four years. 

Google Cloud Storage is stable. 

Since using managed storage solutions, scalability hasn't been an issue. My company has 500 users. 

For deployment, we've been using Firebase, specifically Firebase Cloud Storage. Since it's a managed service, we didn't have to handle the deployment process ourselves. This aligns well with our design methodology of building the product, testing it, gathering user feedback, and making changes based on that feedback. You need a team of ten resources to handle the deployment. 

Before deciding on Google Cloud Storage, we evaluated other options. However, we ultimately chose Firebase, which includes Google Cloud Storage as part of its integrated package.

I rate the product an eight out of ten. 

My primary use case of this solution is file storage. You can store almost everything in there—files of all formats—and the storage capacity is pretty good. I believe the drive capacity is 15GB or so. This is a cloud-based solution, so you're always using the latest version. 

Some of the most valuable features are how convenient and easy to use this solution is. It's very user-friendly and meets all my requirements. 

Google Cloud Storage could be improved by increasing the drive capacity. 

I have been using this solution for many years now. 

This solution is stable. 

This solution is scalable. The drive could have more capacity. There is easily a minimum of around 70% to 75% of users in my organization who use this Google Cloud Storage. 

I have never contacted technical support, but I know friends who have. My friends gave me very positive feedback about getting immediate support. I've heard Google's support is very good. 

I have used Dropbox too, but I usually prefer Google Cloud Storage. When I started using Google Cloud Storage, it was easy to use and met all my requirements, so I haven't switched back since. 

Since this is a cloud-based solution, installation is pretty straightforward.

I implemented this solution myself. 

I use the free version and have never paid for any extra storage. I have been able to manage in whatever free spaces are given. 

I rate this solution a 9.5 to 10 out of 10. 

We primarily use the solution for storage.

It's helpful for storage. It makes collaboration with colleagues easy.

The workspace is quite convenient.

We also use Google Meet to handle meetings.

It can be used anywhere at any time. The access is very helpful.

It is stable.

The solution is scalable.

The internal functionality is very good. 

It is easy to set up.

The capacity could be improved. We'd like more storage and hope they reduce the costs for increased storage.

We have some people not using storage at all and some who are using all of their allotment. We'd like to be able to have a certain amount, and those that need more have access to more, and those that need less can have their allotment shared with those that need more. The way it is spread should be more flexible. 

It is hard to migrate to another product if we want to.

I've been using the solution for two years.

It is a very stable solution. There are no bugs or glitches. The uptime is around 100%.

The solution can scale well. However, we'd like it to be easier to scale so that people can have more flexible storage amounts. 

We have around 100 people using the solution.

We do not have plans to increase usage. 

We did use Office 365 previously. It wasn't really part of an enterprise experience. However, Google and Microsoft have similar applications on their clouds. 

The initial setup could be simple. We can set up the solution and then open up the console and configure it how we want. We have one person that can deploy the solution. It doesn't take a large team. If you have DNS skills, it's an easy task.

We used a team in-house to deploy the solution.

This is a cloud-based solution, and we are always using the latest version.

I wouldn't recommend the solution. If it was easy to migrate to another solution, I'd be more likely to recommend it.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

I use the tool for storage. I use it for personal use cases.

The tool enables me to share the storage space with four other users. I share the space with my family members. The solution is easy to use and easy to manage.

The product must provide less frequent updates.

I have been using the solution for more than three years.

The product is very stable.

It is easy to increase the storage. We have to pay more to get more storage.

The solution is very cheap. I pay around INR 2000 per year. I rate the pricing a ten out of ten. The tool is affordable.

We can use the tool for a wide number of applications, like Google Docs and Google Sheets. The most important thing I am using it for is Google Photos. It is the best solution available in the market.

Overall, I rate the product a ten out of ten.

We primarily use the platform as a backend for our mobile applications. 

One area for product improvement would be better synchronization across regions. Currently, the performance can be slow if you access storage from different global locations.

I have been using Google Cloud Storage for more than ten years.

I rate the product stability a nine. 

The platform is scalable, and I have not encountered limits on the amount of data. However, scalability for regional access can be an issue, as performance may vary depending on the user's location relative to the storage region.

The initial setup process is straightforward. 

The product pricing is reasonable. 

We integrate Google Cloud Storage with Google Firebase. Firebase provides an SDK to develop mobile applications and store files in Google Cloud Storage.

As a technical person, I find managing data within the platform easy. I would rate it as a nine. It is both fast and secure.

We use the solution for Firestore. We used a cloud call to run the database. We also use BigQuery for data logs.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I use Google Cloud Storage in my company for email purposes, meaning we use it to manage our corporate emails.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is a good product that we use with two exchange servers in place. My company doesn't use Google Classroom.

The product's user interface is an area of concern where improvements are required. The tool could be more user-friendly and offer more designs to users as it is currently very plain and straightforward.

I have been using Google Cloud Storage for six months. I use the solution's latest version, which is quite good.

From a stability standpoint, the solution is excellent. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

It is a very scalable solution.

Around 200 people in my company use the solution.

If new employees join our organization, then we may expand the use of the product.

The product's initial setup phase is very easy.

One person from the IT team who operates from the headquarters of our company situated in Istanbul deals with the deployment process of the product and speaks with the company's employees, making the whole process easy without any complaints.

Only IT staff members are required to take care of the product's deployment process.

The solution can be deployed in a month.

The in-house personnel of my company carried out the product's installation phase

The product works completely fine, and because of that, the return on investment is very good.

Approximately 800 to 1,000 USD is paid towards the licensing costs of the solution. The solution is neither expensive nor cheap, meaning it is moderately priced. There are no extra costs apart from the licensing costs of the solution.

I recommend the solution to those who plan to use it.

I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

We used the solution for Persistent Disk. It was integral because the input data was stored via the solution. This data was then fetched via self-made software. It was part of a processing chain.

I could store any type of file using the solution. The product could be implemented into my code. Also, I trust Google products. It was the most important factor in why I used the solution. It had every feature that we needed.

It was not easy to reach the storage because there were different network zones. We were able to implement things, but it was not that easy.

I have been using the product since 2020.

The product was running smoothly. Sometimes the product had issues syncing the visualization, but it was not related to the cloud storage. I could run the whole pipeline with my input. I rate the tool’s stability a ten out of ten.

The solution was scalable enough. We didn’t have massive use cases, so it took a few milliseconds to run. I rate the product’s scalability a ten out of ten.

We had the best support ever.

The initial setup was easy. I deployed the tool myself.

The solution was very cheap compared to other products. I rate the solution’s pricing a ten on a scale of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap.

I used the product three months ago. Nowadays, they have a dedicated line through which we can connect directly. The use cases are automated and dependable. We had a good experience getting back to this product. Overall, I rate the tool a ten out of ten.
