Cons
"The documentation and community are lacking for this product.""The support for the Indian region is not as good as compared to the support that is offered to the regions in Europe.""Data consumption of the device could be improved.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""I would like a simpler deployment tool on laptops.

We know how to do it, but it could be easier to deploy it on laptops.""Some features of runtime don't work well in App Engine.""I think there's still a lot that can be done with Google Meet and the video conferencing part of it. It could be more dynamic in terms of what can be done with it.""Difficult to assess how pricing is managed."

"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors.""Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products.""The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do."
