    [Google Domains is] very simplistic and easy to use, so it's very straightforward to register a new domain but it doesn't have some features that other services provide. Also, the integration with other Google Services and domain search tool is amazing.

    Cons
    Google
    • Google Domains is pretty good at pre-solving email faux pas such as reply all mishaps. Perhaps a built-in email monitoring tool such as knowing when a customer opens up an email would be good. You can get these features with integrations, but what if it was an internal Google product? Might be nice
    • Email masking was a bit difficult to figure out, but nothing you can't discover with a few Google sessions.
    • I wish I could see more insight into time zones that my customers are in, or scheduling calls on Gcal with timezone awareness. I know this is super hard to code around though.

    Usability
    Google
    Because it is intuitively easy to use, like all of their products. The integration with other apps works seamlessly, and you can have a professional website within hours, rather than days, as with most hosting companies. The templates on the website builder for just about every business make it so simple that even I can do it!

    Support Rating
    Google
    I've never actually had to use support because everything has been very straightforward and I have not had a glitch. I have used Google's support for other items so I can only imagine that it's probably the same support which is decent. They do take a while to get back to you.

    GoDaddy is great, but what I really like about Google Domains when compared to GoDaddy is the ease of centralization. Our email, calendar, accounts, domain, etc was all handled in one place and that made things really easy. You could also access domains easily and quickly by being logged into your email, instead of worrying about yet another log in.

    vmgen is simple and intuitive, has clear pricing and is easy to use. We didn't need to employ a DevOps Engineer to configure it. The cost of vmgen is predictable and cost-effective.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • Being able to host my URL with Google Domains is one less thing I have to worry about in my writing career.
    • I'm sure having my URL, which is my name, with Google Domains also helps people find me via Google's search engine.
    • Its ease of integration with other Google products, especially Google Apps for Business, is a huge plus for marketing and day-to-day work.
