Cons
"I am yet to explore a lot of features that are present in this solution. However, it would be good if more documentation is available for this solution.

We do the labs for 20 or 25 minutes, but we can't capture and download anything.""Google Cloud SQL still needs better connectivity to outside, existing data sources.""The only thing that could be better is the pricing.""The customer support should be improved.""To create a seamless data integration, the title integration of these databases with the data integration platforms is essential.

It was not integrated with the databases, and the documentation lacks clarity.""As a customer, you can't see the boot messages of your virtualized guest machines.""We had some problems in the developer's environment.
