Leveraging Google's own fiber-optic network ensures consistently low latency and high hit ratios across all regions. It works flawlessly with cloud load balancing and cloud storage, allowing us to enable cloud CDN with a single checkbox. The ease of of pairing the CDN with Google Cloud Armor for WAF and DDoS protection provides peace of mind without needing to reroute traffic to a separate security provider.
1. Blazing fast delivery - Latency drops a ton compared to our old setup 2. Super easy integration 3. Strong cache control and invalidation tools
Integration is GREAT when using the Google platform, it's very easy to use out of the box, no complex setup required. The ability to integrate with our backend databases/platforms and the ease of access to the API is great,as we a re using other Google tools and platforms, this simplifies all of oru processes.
Pricing models can be difficult to forecast accurately, which can lead to unexpected billing fluctuations during traffic spikes. While deployment is easy, the options for more complex cache key manipulation and header modification at the edge are more limited compared to some specialized competitors. The Dashboard for real-time traffic monitoring and cache-hit ratios is somewhat basic and could be more visually intuitive for quick troubleshooting.
1. The UI feels clunky and outdated - too many click to do basic tasks. 2. Customer support takes a while to respond and when they do, it's generic copy-paste answers. 3. Pricing jumps way up after the first year with barely any warning.
At times the prices we are charged change and then we have to re-charge internally to the business units, creating a complex challenge to achieve the correct ratio of charges. So much so that we had to use other tool to clarify and work out where the charges need to go. Billing is the main issue, but we have now adapted the recharge system to cater for the fluctuations in charges to be catered for on a monthly basis, this smooths out the highs and lows of price changes.
