Google cloud is well suited to access and collaborate on documents where more than 2 people are required to contribute and in instances where feedback from individuals is captured on the document itself. If a team is working on an end of year report for funders, a few key members may need to finalise a report by offering suggestions that can be viewed and resolved by other team members. Housing documents on Google Cloud is the most appropriate platform I have ever used for tasks like these. If minimal collaboration needs engagement from just 2 individuals, it may be easier to simply email the information between each other, rather than using time to create a folder, ensure access control and upload the information to Google Cloud for collaborative input

This is exceptionally simple to utilize in the event that you are as of now utilizing Google Cloud Services or you are important for the Google Ecosystem as of now. I accept this is likely the primary goal of Google Cloud DNS, to give a more complete set-up of devices to Google Cloud clients. Consequently, I would rate convenience a 9.

In the event that you are utilizing Google Cloud Platform as your cloud supplier, Google Cloud DNS is unquestionably the DNS supplier to utilize.
I haven't required help for it yet, notwithstanding, in my experience, Google Support is incredible.

Amazon Route 53 offers almost equal or slightly more features than Google Cloud DNS; we selected Google Cloud DNS because the rest of our projects use Google Cloud Platform.
Also, since AWS is a bigger service provider, their pricing is also higher; since Google Cloud DNS pricing is better, we went for it.
