Considering the scope of the product's use in my company, I can't comment much on the tool's scalability.

Around 500 people in my company use the product.

There is no plan to increase product usage in our company.

I rate the tool’s scalability an eight out of ten. We have 21 users. Few of them work remotely.

I've not experienced scalability. It's a new app, and the number of users is not that much, so we haven't seen scalability in action. 

That said, I have noted that the response of the server is not very good. The APIs sometimes take ten seconds to return data. It's running slow. Normally, people expect the data to be returned within two seconds.

We have five developers using the solution right now. It is still a new system. Since the response time is slow, we likely won't be expanding usage.

I wouldn't describe it as a highly scalable product. Firebase is more of a set of essential services provided by Google for building various applications. Its scalability depends on the specific services and resources you choose within Firebase to meet your application's needs.

I don't have much experience with scaling. My understanding is it can only be used in Google servers and within the Google environment, so you can't scale beyond Google. 

I'm not sure how many people in my organization use it. 

The solution would be a fit for small or medium-sized companies thanks to the ease of development.

I have not used the product extensively, and there is presently no user base for the product in my company.

Only a few test users in my company use Google Firebase since we have not rolled out the product in the market for customers.

I rate the solution's scalability as six and a half. Its orchestration tools need to be fixed for deployment. It becomes challenging to determine the scaling capabilities.

The scalability of Google Firebase is good, but there are some limitations. For example, once you are set up, there's no way you can delete the data or change the settings. It's durable, handles many loads, and pushes the data when the user is not aware.

Google Firebase felt like it was scalable to a point with our solution. But when we went a bit further with our databases, we ran into some problems.

We had a concept where we were white labeling and had different speeds. As soon as we connected six different apps to the same backend, we started having problems. Then we had to split into duplicate databases, and that wasn't perfect.

I also found that we hadn't used the real-time database in the BI component, and we used the Firestore component. Originally, we had a real-time database, and we migrated to the Google Cloud Firestore database. I found that I could easily migrate that into Google BigQuery. But there's a couple of steps. First, you have to do the backup, and then you have to import these backups into Google BigQuery.

I did that about six months ago and was slightly annoyed that there were no streaming functions. Scheduling the import was very difficult with Firestore. We had to use a couple of other tools to create schedulers to import. But the import on the Google BigQuery and the Firestore component was still a manual process, which was a bit annoying.

Technical Team Lead at AuthentiCode

The solution is scalable and easy to use. As a developer, when I'm working on it, I know what I want out of my database. We can add the APIs and WAP services that we use with ease. We can build both a front end and back end with it. It's also fast. It can be used for both apps and web development as well. It's flexible.

We have five people at our organization that use it. There are two developers on iOS and two on Android and then we have a developer for the backend tool.

We haven't tested the scalability performance of this platform. We did not do any stress or any other load tests. Although I have not tested this myself, I have read that there are some problems with the scalability.
