What do you like best about Google Cloud?

As an ITIL Consultant, what stands out most is Google Cloud’s reliability, scalability, and alignment with modern ITSM principles. GCP’s services like Cloud Monitoring, Logging, and Operations Suite enable clear visibility and traceability — key for incident and problem management.

The platform makes it easy to implement service automation, infrastructure-as-code, and CI/CD pipelines while maintaining robust governance through IAM and policy-based controls.

It also integrates well with ITSM tools like ServiceNow, Jira, and others, which is critical in environments where operational maturity and SLAs are core. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used multiple Google Cloud services, be it there Compute Engine, Firestore and the Kubernetes Engine. I really like how easy it is to spin up a machine and deploy your application and User Interface is quite simple and straightforward. I had also used other Cloud Platforms but what impressed me was the BigQuery and how it makes data analysis on massive data so fast and simple. I have used Firestore services like Storage and Realtime database for my app developments, and like how smoothly they integrate and interact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
