User interface consistency facilitates seamless project planning and design for specialized tasks
While Google has made efforts to address SAP loads, the company lacks a product specialist focus. They cover a broad range of products, which might affect their ability to compete well in certain niches. Google's strength lies in their adapted approach to specific tasks, as seen with SAP loads. Generally, their focus is widespread.
Wondwossen Abebe Kebede - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable platform that integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems
The product integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems in the telecom sector. Our partners manage services, including detailed integration and migration-related operations. The platform upholds the uptime and reliability of our business applications. We classify our systems into different tiers, ranging from machine-critical to business-critical, and FusionStorage helps us run all the services. It delivers a remarkable uptime of 99.9%. With our expectations for continuous service availability, we are operating 24/7. In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's easy to use."
"Google Cloud Storage has proven most valuable for our data management needs due to its bandwidth speed for backing up and restoring data."
"The most valuable features of Google Cloud Storage are flexibility and sustainability."
"The most valuable features are Pub/Sub, Data Explorer, BigQuery, and Data Transfer."
"The most valuable feature of Google Cloud Storage is that I can link with my PC."
"The most valuable features of Google Cloud Storage include easy API integration for querying, downloading, and uploading files."
"Google Cloud Storage is very convenient to use."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is its performance."
"Huawei FusionStorage does well in its basic functions and offers broad utility."
"In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels."
"It is a stable solution."
"Provides easy access to our data."
"The product has a very simple GUI-based management platform and it is very simple to use. There is a very easy step-by-step configuration procedure that guides you through, and you can configure it very easily."
 

Cons

"They need more enhancements in the security features."
"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."
"One area for product improvement would be better synchronization across regions."
"When compared to one of its competitors, Google Cloud Storage does not have or offer a lot of services to its users. So, this is one of the downsides of the solution."
"The main area for improvement would be providing a local setup or working area. Currently, developers need to commit code to test changes. A lower-cost option for this would be beneficial."
"Sometimes, I'm not too fond of privacy policies, especially when using certain features like Gemini AI, where agreeing to the terms might mean losing access to your history. One area for improvement is document retrieval—sometimes, it's hard to find documents because the file names aren't always recognizable, and the preview feature could be more efficient. Maintenance for Google Cloud Storage is minimal, but it would be helpful to have a tool that automatically removes duplicate versions of files to save space. The file management in Google Cloud and Workspace isn't very straightforward, which could be improved."
"Google Cloud Storage can improve by having better integration and migration tools."
"It was a little more complicated when compared to Apple."
"Their cloud services could be improved."
"The initial setup and installation is not that straightforward. It should be made easier and the time to install should be reduced."
"The product needs improvement in terms of affordability."
"I hope for improvements in the product's processing ability and performance."
"The problem with Huawei is that it generally oversells. As a principle, Huawei does not educate the partner or the end user enough to scale up their solution correctly."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The product is subscription-based. When you pay, you will get more storage."
"The price could be cheaper."
"It's about nearly $10,000 USD to use the services on GCP, however, Google gave us a good deal which is why we originally went with them."
"I am paying a yearly subscription fee."
"We pay a monthly subscription."
"The solution is free."
"There are no licensing fees."
"It is expensive but might be optimal based on the partnership."
"If one is a cheap solution and ten means it is a very expensive product, I would rate the price as two or three."
