We performed a comparison between Google Cloud Storage and Google Cloud Storage Nearline based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Public Cloud Storage Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"You do not need to install anything."
"The most valuable features are the ease and accessibility of information."
"We are mostly doing telephony and generic web services in the telephony."
"Easy to use object storage solution that's scalable and stable. Its technical support team is customer-friendly."
"Google Cloud Storage is very convenient to use."
"It’s very stable."
"Google Cloud Storage performs well and it's easy to use."
"It provides the necessary support and flexibility to manage data storage effectively, especially during times of variable data flow."
"The capacity and space on offer are excellent."
"The data structure and the types of data that are supported are very good."
"The most valuable feature of Nearline is the access. It's helpful to move data that is generated once a month, such as salary information, to Nearline."
"Nearline is highly stable."
"I find the flexibility in storing documents or data and the ease of retrieval valuable with this solution."
"Google is always introducing new features and tends to have a new release every month."
"It can isolate files and stop them from corrupting other files."
"What would make Google Cloud Storage better is if it provided more storage."
"The solution must provide some accessibility features."
"In the next release, if improvements are made to the GPU instances for machine learning, for example, it would be helpful."
"It would be helpful to offer more packages to increase the storage."
"The solution is good, however, it would benefit from increased storage without the additional cost."
"My use case of this solution is fairly minimal. However, I am concerned about privacy on a cloud platform. Many people are not migrating to a cloud service because they are still concerned about putting data in cloud-based storage."
"The solution should improve its security and accountability."
"While the solution seems to be secure, I worry that, with the cloud, there is a chance of hacking. It would be ideal if they could be more transparent about the processes they go through to keep our data secure in the cloud and on their systems."
"The UI could be a little bit more effective."
"The solution needs to offer better System Information and Event Management (SEIM). I'd like to discover how we could implement something like that within Google's cloud."
"They should provide more options or flexibility in terms of pricing."
"They need a better, more visual, user interface for folders and files."
"The pricing is quite high."
"Nearline security could be better. The solution could integrate better with SEIM tools."
"The interface for managing file storage in the buckets could be improved."
"The suggestion for improvement primarily revolves around cost efficiency."
