Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Google App Engine's most valuable feature is self-management. You do not have to manage the infrastructure underneath where all the functions are happening, such as load balancing deployment and version management, they are managed by the system itself."
"The product's setup and deployment phases are easy."
"The initial setup is okay. It's not too complex. Deployment took about one day."
"Seurity features - unauthorized individuals are unable to access certain applications."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward, considering that there is good documentation explaining the implementation part of it."
"Administering App Engine is simple; it has intuitive UIs and a very scalable app engine."
"I've found that all of the features are valuable, especially the shared drive and the ability for multiple people to use their documents at the same time."
"The WhatApp feature is the most valuable."
"The features I found most valuable are the integration options."
"The solution has a lot of great features."

"The most valuable feature is integration."
"It's suitable for various sizes of companies. I have used it with big companies and with small ones as well."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"The maintenance part can be outsourced easily."
"The support for the Indian region is not as good as compared to the support that is offered to the regions in Europe."
"The only concern is that there is a number of the offerings which are built on their own proprietary technologies. With some of the offerings in Google Cloud, it's difficult to have a path to migrate to other cloud providers."
"Data consumption of the device could be improved."
"I think there's still a lot that can be done with Google Meet and the video conferencing part of it. It could be more dynamic in terms of what can be done with it."

"The documentation and community are lacking for this product."
"I am limited to sending a photo to five people. I want to be able to send a photo to many people, not just five."

"When I started looking at the client's IT architecture, I started by doing a study of their services, DVM, data volume, and management services. According to the results, they could be a lot better at this."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing."
"The addition of more industry use cases would be an improvement."
"The main problem is that there aren't any easy migrations from SAP PO to SAP CPI, so from process orchestration to cloud platform integration."
"One crucial aspect where SAP lags behind in flexibility is customization to suit specific business requirements. SAP needs to understand that customization is inevitable and should be more supportive of business-driven customization."
"I can’t speak to features that may be missing."
"Shows errors without providing any analysis."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
