Google Cloud Storage Reviews

In my company, we have a multi-cloud environment in which we are using AWS and Google. So, we are using a mix of services, in which some of our work is on AWS, while the others are on Google. Mostly, we are using certain DevOps tools in our company since I am not a part of the team that handles the infrastructure.

In my department, Kubernetes, Docker, and some other DevOps-related stuff, like containers, are what we have been using on Google Cloud Storage. However, there might be some other teams who are using the infrastructure as well.

Although I cannot provide a detailed analysis of the solution's valuable features, I can say that its storage capacity is adequate based on my team's experience. We used to consult with our cloud team to get the storage, mainly related to volumes on the Kubernetes side, and they were able to align those things for us. So, I won't be able to specifically speak about its storage since when it comes to Kubernetes, there is also an open-source version available in the market. The service-based Kubernetes from Google is quite secure and helpful, specifically the GUI of the solution.

In my previous company, we used Google. More precisely, we were involved with it because earlier, I was using Azure, which we were specifically using AKS, which is Azure Kubernetes Service. So, AKS was a solution that was well-managed by both cloud providers. But compared to AKS, Google Kubernetes is better, especially its GUI and user-friendliness, because one doesn't have to search too much to find a solution.

Solutions from Amazon and AWS are quite better compared to Google Cloud Storage since they offer more services than Google. When compared to one of its competitors, Google Cloud Storage does not have or offer a lot of services to its users. So, this is one of the downsides of the solution. This might be because AWS has been there a long while Google has just come up in the last five years.

I have experience with Google Cloud Storage for three to four months. Also, I am using the solution's latest version. My company has a partnership with Google. The solution is a Google-managed service.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Google is quite scalable, especially Google Kubernetes. But again, it depends on why we are using the solution.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten since the services provided by the solution are good. More than a hundred people in my organization are using the solution. From an admin point of view, around ten to fifteen engineers work on the solution. We also have an engineering department with users using it for their applications and other work

The solution's customer service and support are helpful since they are responsive. I rate the solution's technical support a nine out of ten.

If we use a managed service, then Google takes care of the maintenance part. However, if we use an infra one, we manage the maintenance part. I can't say how many people are involved in the maintenance phase because we have multiple applications, and people are involved from the application side and the IT side. So, it depends, and it is situational in nature, like if we are using infrastructure service, then it's all managed by us. Only the VM is managed by the cloud. However, if the application is installed, then the application is managed by the application team. And if any storage or network is associated, then that is all managed by us.

The deployment model for the solution consists of AWS, Amazon, and Google. To some extent, I think we also use Azure for O365 or M365, like Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and Outlook.

There were no complexities involved in the installation of the solution. In our company, we only had to use the online services provided by Google to install the solution. Though most of the installation can be done online, we are dependent on certain deployment tools like Terraform and Ansible for easy deployment and integration.

Regarding the cost of the solution, Google offers its users a pay-as-you-go model pricing. The cost of the solution is handled by the department handling billing and procurement in the company. So, they used to come to us if they received any extra bills. Then, they used to ask us the reason for extra usage of the services since they always used to compare the solution's current usage with its usage in the past few months.

I previously used Microsoft Azure.

I am not sure if I would recommend the solution to others since I am not involved in the infrastructure side, where they actually use the solution for storage purposes. Since I am a part of the DevOps team, I use it to manage services like Kubernetes and containerization. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We basically use this solution to store our data, run our mobiles, and link our data. 

What I like about this program, is that it's quite fast, because you pay for your usage. What's more, it is an easy solution to use. It has many tools that you can use, and you can put as much information as you like on there because you pay according to usage.

The scalability of this solution is also very valuable for us.

I would like to see an improvement in data visualization as well as new tools to manage storage in any platform. I think Google already has this solution for management. If you have a data set in Amazon, you must be able to manage it with a Google tool and that's a good improvement. 

I would also like to be able to use my own tools and packages within this solution and also have a tool to visualize the data with graphics.

The solution is very stable and we've had no issues with it so far.

Scalability is one of the most important features for us because we use this feature for our mobile docs. Google Cloud Storage is used by four to five people in our company daily and it is scalable enough for us. The query function is one of the main tools we use. We definitely plan to keep using this product in the future.

We have our own technical department so whenever I have an issue, I contact them and they fix my problem. So I haven't used the Google support team yet. 

Previously, I used my phone for data and analytics. I think that Amazon has more features and it is easier to find people who have worked with the phone tools before. However, for data analytics, I prefer Google Cloud because I think it's a stronger solution for data and analytics.

The initial setup was really straightforward. We've had more than one deployment because we use this solution for deployments every month.

I rate this solution nine out of ten. The reason why I don't give it a ten is because of the data visualization. In the next version, I would like to have a tool to visualize the data with graphics and so on.

I use the solution to store photographs and documents. 

Everything I store in the solution is available on all of my devices. I assume the solution is secure because I often get security notices. 

The solution works fine.

I have been using the free solution for years and the paid solution for one year. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. You just pay for the storage you need. 

I previously used OneDrive. 

There is no setup for the solution, you just sign up and start using it. 

My requirements are minimal, but the cost of additional storage could be cheaper. 

I rate the solution an eight to nine. 

We are using Google Cloud Storage mainly for our document management. We have its latest version.

It is stable and scalable.

Its security should be better from the data security point of view. It should be more secure, and it should get tightly integrated with products such as Google Docs and Google Sheets. Microsoft covers different kinds of tools such as Microsoft Office, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel.

It is scalable. You can scale based on your users. We have more than a thousand users, and it allows me to share across my team.

We don't need any support.

We tried using other tools from AWS and Microsoft. We have a very limited number of users on Microsoft Azure. Office 365 is only for the senior leadership.

Being a cloud solution, it doesn't require installation. I can also use it offline. To use it offline, I need to install an app on my machine that allows me to work offline and gets synced without my server.

It is completely cloud-managed. We don't need a separate team to maintain it. We only have our regular IT team that creates the users, and they automatically get signed up to Google Storage.

Its price is fine. 

I would recommend this solution to others. We plan to keep using this solution.

I would rate Google Cloud Storage a nine out of ten.

I've used it as my personal online drive, just to store and easily locate files on the go.

It's easy to use. It is directly linked to my email ID, et cetera.

You do not need to install anything. 

The product is stable.

It's scalable.

I'd like the solution to integrate better with other clouds, including the Apple cloud. 

I've been using the solution for five to ten years. I've used it for a while. 

The product is stable. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. Its performance is reliable. 

The solution is scalable. You can expand it easily.

Our company is not using Google Cloud. I more or less use it for personal files, et cetera. 

I've never had the need to contact technical support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they would be. 

I use both Apple and Google. Google doesn't cost anything, whereas I have to pay for Apple.

There is no installation required. It's very easy to get up and running. 

The solution is free to use up to a certain point. 

I'm a customer and end-user.

If you are a personal user, if you are looking for something for free with limited data, you should go ahead with Google. If you're using it on an Apple platform, if you use the Mac platform, there is no other option rather than using iCloud.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

I would rate Google Cloud Storage a nine out of ten.

Before I joined the bank, I was working as a consultant. All my documents are on the cloud so that they are available to me from any location. 

The most valuable feature of Google Cloud Storage is that I can link it with my PC. Everything syncs locally. Because they are on the cloud, I can access them from any device at any time. This includes my mobile. 

The solution is good, however, it would benefit from increased storage without the additional cost.

I have been using Google Cloud Storage for more than 10 years.

The solution is stable and secure.

Google Cloud Storage is scalable. Currently, my wife and I are using it for our personal needs.

The purpose of Google Storage is to sell it. The product is subscription-based. When you pay, you will get more storage.

Anyone looking at using Google Cloud Storage should go ahead and implement the solution. Overall, I rate Google Cloud Storage a nine out of 10.
