Likelihood to Recommend

It might be not suitable for you if you do not have any technical background.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We have started using Google Cloud CDN in the last three months. It's a start-up project for our whole organization. By using Google Cloud CDN, we avoid commitments to one vendor. We can quickly build new apps and update our existing ones. The platform always stays consistent and it provides comprehensive data analysis.
Pros and Cons
  • The building and modernizing of apps
  • Data analysis
  • Security
  • Work with other integrations such as Smartphones
  • Monitoring and usage reporting
  • Support
Likelihood to Recommend
It allows us to build and maintain original applications which can then be published from the web. It addresses the business need for enterprises. The pay structure also allows us to pay as we go, thereby we don't have to pay monthly. It also allows us to borrow the analytics and not come up with them on our own.
Most Important Features
  • Anayltics
  • Pricing
  • Ease of Use
Return on Investment
  • Easy to use
  • Saved money
  • We don't have to maintain our own data center
Alternatives Considered
We have limited software developers and don't have the need for a big cloud service provider along with their costs. Google Cloud CDN brings to usr, reliability and brand familiarity. Google Cloud CDN also doesn't bother us with pitches or 1000 emails about the products. We went and signed up for it, without dealing with a pushy salesperson.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
The software is very easy to use with an intuitive interface. This also increases my delivery performance. I like the fact that it improves my application performance by having the data cached decentrally on a node that is close to the client. Allowing the use of a global load balancer is also very easy.
Pros and Cons
  • Speed
  • Good transfer between different servers.
  • Software is easy to use with a intuitive interface.
  • Slightly expensive
  • Complicated cache
  • Error messages
Likelihood to Recommend
It is a complete CDN for all types of use, with an unprecedented network for the delivery and distribution of content at a speed unmatched in the market. Thanks to the network servers that Amazon has, this is something that is not found in any other platform that claims to offer integration services in the cloud. The transfer between the different servers is impressive and speeds up the display on different search engines. In this way, we are always at the top of the searches that interest us.
Most Important Features
  • We are always at the top of the searches that interest us.
Return on Investment
  • Permission model.
  • Product philosophy.
  • Global and regional.
Alternatives Considered

AWS is definitely cheaper than the Google Cloud platform for VM instances. In terms of progression, it is clear that Google Cloud is making significant improvements to the platform. Google Cloud offers the option of a free tier on a wide range of their products. It gives you a predefined amount of resources for a certain time, it is perfect if you want to test a service.

It is easy to set up and configure and only takes a few steps to get it up and running. It increases the performance of our applications and also has built-in security (SSL). It allows us to scale our applications using the load balancer. It is available in many locations in the world and offers one of the best availability and reliability. Highly recommended.
Pros and Cons

  • Easy to setup
  • Offers security and load balancing
  • Nothing to dislike
Likelihood to Recommend
Google Cloud CDN is well suited if you are already using other Google services. It is very easy to set up with just a few clicks to get running. It is also useful if you do not wish to be bothered with maintaining your own SSL cert and want to automate the management of your SSL security.
Most Important Features
  • High availability and reliability
  • Easy to use
Return on Investment
