## Reviews

### "Cloud Run - the deploy at once method for busy developers" — 5.0/5

> **Leonardo** | *24 October 2025* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Managed infra, autoscale, pay per use, integration with my build/deploy pipelines. Warn starts, is quick to start any apps. Cloud Run Functions is even more useful.
> 
> **Cons**: Wish to have sometimes a bit of control of the infra under it, add some more memory etc. More granular access controls as well.
> 
> Always enjoy working with Google Cloud Run. Big diff compared to having a virtual machine and running apps in webservers there. The fact that it goes from zero to active traffic without any extra configuration made me feel confident that I could focus on building features. The pricing model also made sense to me because I only paid when the service is actually running.

### "Google Cloud Run overall revivew" — 5.0/5

> **Shaan** | *18 July 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I found it to be user friendly and the websites created with the help of it looks professional, which is benificial for a working professional to a business owner who is looking to up their game with a strong and authentic websites.
> 
> **Cons**: only thing i kind of found to be the con of the Google Cloud Run was that it is not free which for some of us might be the the biggest CON.
> 
> created a personal website with the help of it and having some experience using platforms like wix and shopify i found out too be genuinely easy to use .

-----

### "Evolution of App Engine" — 5.0/5

> **Simone** | *22 February 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It can be considered a natural evolution of Google App Engine, when the deployed product becomes more and more complex
> 
> **Cons**: On the other hand, if you have a simple MVP (minimum viable product) to present or deploy, the complexity introduced by GCR can be sometimes overwhelming
> 
> It provides the advantages of a serverless environment in the Google Cloud, but with faster scaling possibilities and a more advanced setup

### "Wish I found it sooner\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 August 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a wonderful place to queue elements of your workflows and it's great value for money and extremely secure.
> 
> **Cons**: In all honesty, there isn't much room for improvement based off of what I've seen. Maybe having a student discount would be a nice added touch
> 
> It's super easy to use and to deploy your custom api's to. I love the fact that it is automatically programmed to take frequent snapshots in case you lose your data

### "easy to use server" — 5.0/5

> **Kenny** | *6 October 2025* | Program Development | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like is that I have Google protection and it gives me all the options so that my website can run well within the Cloud Run servers and it also gives me good, very fast support for any errors.
> 
> **Cons**: The only bad thing is that I had never heard of Google Cloud Run before until I discovered it while searching for the best services Google offers.
> 
> My experience has been excellent. I haven't had any complaints when using this Google server. The support service is very good, it runs on any programming language, and is easy to use.
