"The documentation and community are lacking for this product."
"The only concern is that there is a number of the offerings which are built on their own proprietary technologies. With some of the offerings in Google Cloud, it's difficult to have a path to migrate to other cloud providers."
"Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine."
"It doesn't offer Elastic IP like AWS. And also we can't configure our server based on region."
