Google Cloud Storage Reviews

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.

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. 

You would end up using Google Cloud storage for anything that has got to do with Google, for example, your Gmail, Google photos, your Google Drive and so on. It’s for storage.

I like the simplicity. It is seamlessly integrated with your Android. There’s no fuss, no hassle.

The solution is stable.

You can continue to add to your storage. You just have to pay and it will grow in size. It is also free up until 15GB.

It's used by a lot of people.

The solution only allows so much space for free. Later, they forced me to buy additional storage. Now I'm a paying Google customer. 

I'm not a fan of Gmail or the overall email viewing experience. I don’t like the interface. I prefer Microsoft and Outlook.

I'd like to see them improve on that product. They should declutter the UI and keep it simple so that, for example, the latest conversation comes at the top of Gmail and you don't need to really break your head to figure out where things are. 

My concern is that they could block me at any time for any reason. It’s not about security. It’s more about me being unsure how they can assure me of having access when I need my files. At some point, Google can just say “you’ve exhausted your storage” and you have to buy more to access to keep your files.

I've been using the solution for barely three months. 

I haven’t had any issues with stability. There’s been nothing so far that I can think about in terms of issues. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn’t crash or freeze. It’s reliable.

It’s my understanding that almost everybody uses the product. Very few are still in the paying segment as they still may not have exhausted their quotas. Unless you are an avid Apple fan, you'll end up using Google Cloud. After all, who doesn't have a Gmail account?

I don't recall any time in the recent past having contacted for support for a technical glitch.

As a cloud-based solution, there isn't really any setup process to go through. 

The solution is free at first, and then you have to pay. I've exhausted my quota of 15 GB which generally Google gives to every user.

I’d recommend the solution to other users.

I would rate the solution nine out of ten.

Primarily, I use the solution for all my documentation. Prior to this, I'd normally work three or four years in one company and take up an assignment, make things work there, and move out. All related documents I might share with someone physically. Now, all my documents are on the cloud and more easily accessible. 

It's simple to use. 

There's no implementation process.

I don't find the solution very user-friendly.

I've been using the solution for ten years now. 

The solution is stable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. it's reliable. 

For my personal needs, it's okay in terms of scalability. I don't see any challenges, however, I don't know how it would be for the commercial user.

We have about 150 people in the company using it. It used to be 400. We're actually using it less. 

We've never required technical support. 

Personally, I used Rackspace, I think five, six years back, which I found it much easier to use, much simpler, and much easier to use.

I'm using the product for my personal needs. In terms of Rackspace, I used to work for a development company, and there I used it for another client. The good part was that whenever I wanted to deploy the whole application, I got good technical support from them. In fact, their team in Hong Kong or Singapore, where they have a data center, that team had a lot of interaction with me on the deployment architecture. They finally suggested the whole solution, how it should be deployed, and how it could be scaled up and scaled down as the need arises. 

The solution does come as part of a bundle. 

There isn't a setup process. It's very easy to start using it. It's all in the cloud, ready to go. 

I'd recommend the solution to others.

I would rate it ten out of ten. If it was more intuitive, it would be even better.

We primarily use the solution for cloud storage.

Google Cloud Storage is very convenient to use. It is easy as it is linked to our mail ID. 

We can save the data there so that, wherever we log in, we can log into our drive to download any file. We can show it in our drive, so the drive is always linked.

It is easy to use and comfortable.

This is a stable product.

The scalability is great.

It offers free storage of up to 15GB and then you have to pay a reasonable fee. 

Technical support has been fine.

It's actually quite complete and we don't have any issues with the solution. 

I've used the solution for a few years at this point. It's been a while. 

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

I'd rate the scalability a ten out of ten. It's extremely scalable. 

Almost everyone uses the product. It's great. There are about 400 people on it.

We do not have plans to increase usage at this point. 

We've reached out to technical support once or twice, however, they easily provide the solutions.

We did not use a different solution previous to this. 

The solution does not need an elaborate setup as it is in the cloud. You don't need to deploy it. 

We do have to pay for additional storage, however, we don't mind paying. They do offer limited free storage up until 15GB, however, we are over that. There's a set payment per month.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

I don't have any advice as almost everyone might be using it in India. It's quite prevalent. We'd recommend the solution to anyone. 

The solution is only used for the storage and filing of personal items and documents.

The ease of operations is great. It makes everything easily accessible.

It’s very stable.

The stability is good.

The solution could always be more user-friendly.

I’ve been using the solution for the last couple of years.

The solution is very stable. It’s reliable. It doesn’t crash or freeze. There are no bugs or glitches.

If a company needs to scale the solution, it can do so.

I just use it for personal use. I do not have plans to scale.

I’ve never used technical support. I can’t speak to how helpful they would be.

There is no real installation required as the entire solution operates on the cloud.

I don’t have any information in regards to licensing.

I’d recommend the solution to other users.

I would rate the solution eight out of ten.

We use Google Cloud Storage to copy, and do machine learning, then we send the information back to Microsoft Azure.

Google Cloud Storage's most valuable feature is the native algorithms are available. Some of the algorithms are not available for the use cases that we had in Microsoft Azure. We didn't find any native algorithms and that's the reason why we decided to use the machine learning algorithms in GCP.

Google Cloud Storage could improve the integrations in a way Microsoft Azure is going about it. For Data Lake integrations, Microsoft Azure has a bunch of native pipelines available. All Google needs to do is add the same set or maybe even improve on the sets that they have. All the analytics, including the Data Lake, would then be able to sit in Google Cloud Storage.

I have been using Google Cloud Storage for approximately one year.

Google Cloud Storage is fairly stable. It's as stable as Microsoft Azure. Thankfully, those customers that we had weren't hit by any downtime, which Microsoft Azure and GCP did see last year. However, our particular customer was very lucky they didn't face any downtime on either service.

The scalability of Google Cloud Storage is similar to Microsoft Azure. The scalability between GCP, Microsoft Azure, and Amazon AWS, are all at par, all three providers have the same growth pattern that they want to look at. All of them are setting up new regions and new locations. They are as scalable as each other. I don't think you would be in a position to put one ahead of the other.

Machine learning is for a very specific use case and we have six people in our analytics team that are using this solution.

Google Cloud Storage setup is only a couple of clicks and there's no installation per se. As long as the data feed pipeline is there, that part of the solution keeps running on its own and it will produce results based on what it learned.

I would recommend this solution to others if their use case is compelling enough, such as for analytics.

I rate Google Cloud Storage an eight out of ten.

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

Google Cloud Storage is a top cloud product on the Google Cloud Platform.

We have used many Kubernetes clusters and run a GK and GKA with a pilot. It’s performance is good. It is flexible and simple to use.

The solution’s stability could be improved.

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

The product is stable.

The solution is scalable.

15 users are using this solution.

If we have the support ticket, we will get a quick response.

The initial setup is simple.

Google has the reliability and security.

I recommend the solution. It is very easy to manage the data.

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