Overall, Birst is a great reporting tool that makes it easier for IT department to create / deploy new reports.

So if you have a small team that is spread thing or have limited knowledge the TAM program eliminates this issue but it does add to the cost.

Great tool that will give you great insights very recommended to medium - Large Business Needs.

Tons of Features, Fantastic Support, Frustrating omissions of basic development functionality.

Overall experience with Birst is good as a developer. Great visualization capabilities and faster analytics with huge amount of data.

Lagging time when processing Medium to large Data Sets. Very expensive compared to other BI Solutions.

It may seem like we don't like the tool, but it is very good.

The actual reporting and dashboard tools are very easy to use and users can be quickly trained on how to create reports.

Having a fully integrated data store and data warehouse is a great value. Data connectivity is also very powerful while simple.

And you cannot overstate the importance of their terrific customer support - especially the Birst Community.

Have many features to improve the time to make the works functional. Very good performance in the  gathering of data, security and possibility of learning.

Easy integration with 3rd party data, great visualizations and it comes with ETL capabilities.

Ease of use for users as well as as easy management for system administrators.

Great support from Birst and the Birst community. Good BItools getting better every three months.

Interface looks nice for the final user and relatively easy to use after a brief training. Looks also powerful and easy to prepare new dashboard.

Definitely use the user guide; it is chock full of amazing helpful tools.

Ability to pull or push data into other Systems. Developing rapidly specially after being Acquired by infor.

Scalable, moderately priced, functionality is better than other platforms, great for SMB and enterprise audiences.

The ease to create new dashboard is really impressive and simplicity to gather data and make them available to end-users are key factors for projects success.

The cons are mostly pain felt by the developers. End users will not notice an issue.

Graphical representation of the data is what attracted us to the Birst.

Limited reporting and dash boarding capabilities. Bugs that lead to erroneous results, without giving and error.

There is a large misconception that building a BI dashboard is easy. Using Birst to do this IS somewhat easy, but invest in your data model.

You're missing a lot of creation/deletion functions and you must always access a space command window to do so. Therefore you have troubles to mass create/delete users without using the API.

Overall, I am impressed by how simple Birst makes something that can otherwise be complex.

It can get very confusing especially for new users. Sometimes you can pinpoint a HEX Color, in other cases, you have only a choice between 5 predetermined colors.

Easy to Implement and integrate with other Systems.

The ability to deploy a new warehouse with its own set of reports and dashboards in short order has been one of the best features for us to date.

Configuration of permissions can be a bit confusing at times.

Excellent suite with a lot of tools to manage your space and invite others to collaborate with you on the same pages.

Google cloud platform is fantastic! it keeps all of the wonderful google apps in one useful place.

Google Cloud is easy to learn, simple to use, and provides comfort that the things important to you are safe and secure.

The ease with which Google Cloud Platform uses it great. Creating events and having our people use the platform is very easy and very streamlined.

Google Cloud is a cost effective alternative to S3 and continually improving -watch this space.

In case you have low Internet speed at your workplace, you will surely struggle with this platform.

Sometimes the security system finds suspicious activity on the server. Alarms always turn out to be false, but it is impossible to use the platform during such failures.

Awesome platform and one I would highly recommend. Easy to use and having google backing it is a huge upside.

I love how I can store everything in separate folders,the display and navigation are so easy to use and very nice looking.

Customer support is the best. Web-based console to manage your account.

Have liked what I was able to use if for in my small business, better priced.

Guides Provided by Google is also very good and easy to understand. Ability to create your own ML model and train it without doing it on your own PCs.

Things are very well managed, I use BigQuery to analyse the data. Things are great there, the integrations/options are great.

The number of tools that this platform offers is great, very easy to integrate with other Google services if you make use of them, such as Gmail and youtube.

It is true that currently its on number 3 , but with growth and features added I am confident it will be.

It is super easy to use it, almost like natural. I have an android phone, and I am basically doing a transition to rely on google apps for convenience.

It is charged in dollar which makes it very expensive for people living in countries where the local currency is weak compared to the US dollar.

And the reputation of Google precedes. But the most interesting thing that caught me is the flexible pricing that is both affordable and scalable.

I love the amount of storage I get compared to the low prices that I'm paying. I love how well it is organized and always backed up.

Below are some of the best and most reliable services you will be getting along with this platform. Google Kubernetes Engine: is one of the best managed K8s engine.

What I dislike is that there are some features which are not available and that's what make it unfeasible. Plus, the billing options are not front and center.

Overall this has been great for my needs. The many possibilities offered through Google apis and GCP products actually helped me thinking of new ways to solve some issues I was facing.

I really like the free tier of the many softwares and the easy integration of, for example, App engine. The sync with Firebase is awesome too.

What I loved the most about this program is its ease of use, it is also very cost friendly.

I hate knowing that my stuff is just sitting on a cloud and can be hacked one day. It is scary to know that it is on the internet.

I like the ease of use, and the integration with my other Google products. Its seamless, and meshes perfectly with my way of doing things.

What I lean toward least about this product is that occasionally records are frequently incidentally lost. It can turn out to be extremely hard to search out some of my archives.

The customer care are also very helpful and give a prompt solution.

I like having a safe and secure space to save all my media information. It is user friendly once you play around with it a little.

I do worry about things disappearing, breaches, or crashes. Maybe that's a little paranoia on my part, but we have no guarantees.

Besides the customer support, which is actually really hard to find in any hosting company, the product is good.

I think the cost is quite good depending on your requisites, and the global availability of the platform is fantastic.

I love the ease of storage. This is great for me as a student to store my work easily and safely.

Amazing experience, easy, cheap and customer support are helpful and friendly.

I think as with other Google products, it's the best you can get. The features are great and it's so easy to use.

Google cloud has been very user friendly and I love being able to back up my photos and data.

Navigation on the pages can be confusing at times and some information is not updated for the latest version.

The best platform for Cloud Computing, very robust, with all services that you need for you application.

I love how confident I am in Google to protect and keep all my files, pictures, documents secure.
