Google Cloud DNS is simple to set up, records move quickly, and it's integrated with the majority of the Google Cloud Services that we use. With its rapid record spread and ease of use, Google Cloud DNS has helped us in the acceleration of server migrations.

We’re a “set it and forget it” company for many of our IT solutions, and Google Cloud DNS fit that description well, once we were able to complete the implementation. The ability to test it free and a price scaled to our usage made it easy to try and cost-justify.

It works great with other apps and services. Can easily view, edit and correct DNS records. It is well suited for multifaceted business, with robust internet search interactivity and rotating customer users. It works best with IT professionals or those who can learn the ins-and-outs of DNS lingo. It is not that needed for education/non-profits, unless you are actively recruiting or fundraising.

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.

Google domains we feel is well suited for just about any organization out there because it's so user-friendly, easy to navigate and make updates quickly, extremely affordable which was paramount for us as a smaller nonprofit when we were starting out and it integrates so well with other Google products and our overall techstack.

With Google Cloud DNS, transitioning documents from one pace to another is easier and much more efficient. We are able to have our own private VPN network in order to minimize risk of exposure. The split horizon dns specifically helps us to keep our network secure, especially since we have lots of people in and out of the entire building day after day. We need this extra layer of security.

Google Cloud DNS is well suited in most cases - it has a clean interface, plenty of configuration options, available to view and edit on the Google console.
It may not be as well suited for novice users since the documentation about the various fields is not always available near where the fields need to be set.

It is good for users to manage routing domain names to IP for websites. One can easily manage DNS setup using it. It is very fast and reliable. It may be a bit confusing for a less technical person to handle. We do not have any downtime from the day we shifted to google cloud DNS. Google Cloud does not break a sweat managing small to high amount of users. There are some drawbacks [that] can be rectified but it is not a deal-breaker.

I truly like the dependability and low-dormancy admittance to the framework. In more straightforward words, admittance to our Google worker or foundation is worldwide and we have 100% accessibility to the Authoritative Name Servers. We likewise have full authority over your DNS settings and these are no longer at the control of any outsider enlisting our areas. This further upgrades our IT framework security. Valuing is incredible besides.

Google Cloud DNS incorporates with different devices, for example, terraform very well in this way empowering simple expansion and evacuation of DNS records. It additionally coordinates well with other Google Cloud stage items.

Documentation and simplicity of use is first class for Google Cloud DNS.

I believe Google Cloud DNS is well suited if you are already using some Google Cloud services such as Compute Engine. It may be less appropriate for people who are not currently part of the Google ecosystem as it may require some extra unnecessary account setup. As well, it may not be the best suited for less "techy" people.
