(26-35 of 35)Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why
- For a small enterprise with appropriate software engineer the ROI is excellent because the cost of GAE usage is very low compare to the quatity of information it can process in a day to day basis.
- GAE allows custom powerful API usage but this can be a double-edged sword because you are binding your application with this particular product.

Good App Engine (GAE)
- Increased employee efficiency.
- Less infrastructure maintenance time.
- Quick turnaround on building out an enterprise ready solution.
- Developers only need to worry about their code, and not need to worry about the hardware, load-balancing, high availability etc.
- Effective employee adoption through ease of use.
- Effective integration to other java based frameworks.
- Time to market is very quick. Build, test, deploy and use.
- The GAE Whitelist for java is an important resource to know what works and what does not. So use it. It would also be nice for Google to expand on items that are allowed on GAE platform.
