We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Administering App Engine is simple; it has intuitive UIs and a very scalable app engine.""The product's setup and deployment phases are easy.""Seurity features - unauthorized individuals are unable to access certain applications.""Google App Engine's most valuable feature is self-management. You do not have to manage the infrastructure underneath where all the functions are happening, such as load balancing deployment and version management, they are managed by the system itself.""The WhatApp feature is the most valuable.""It is simple to use. It is much simpler than AWS. It is also very powerful.""The solution is serverless, so we don't have to operate it.""Its ability to integrate with most devices helps users who have different or old devices."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is the high level of performance for the databases.""The pricing of the solution is pretty good.""The main benefit is that you're getting all of the resources you require on a subscription base.

Cons
"The documentation and community are lacking for this product.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops. It is a bit complicated at the moment. We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops.""The support for the Indian region is not as good as compared to the support that is offered to the regions in Europe.""I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five.""There needs to be more directions in terms of how to use the solution.""Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine.""Data consumption of the device could be improved."

More Google App Engine Cons →

"Oracle Cloud could improve AI. The design elements could be done better.""With Oracle you have to create your own roles and it is more complex.""Areas that need improvement are the pricing and the support.""The product's resilience is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The solution requires tighter integration capabilities.""The Oracle Cloud platform remains complex, and despite the abundance of resources available, significant challenges can still arise during the migration process from a legacy or on-premise system. Conversely, smaller companies with less complicated systems, such as those with a two million budget, can migrate more easily.""It takes more time to release resources than one of its competitors.""In the next release, I would like to see more automation."
