Bettercloud makes GSuite Management much easier

Reviewed 4 years ago

We have thought of going without Bettercloud, but everytime we recognized the high value it provides - it would be tough to live without it.

Pros

Bettercloud was a life saver when we moved over to GSuite- the Google Admin just wasn't cutting it with all the features and needs we had, but Bettercloud provides everything we need.

Cons

The user interphase took a little getting used to, but once I located what I needed, it's been great

Extremely useful knowledge Base

Reviewed 4 months ago

Our business teams utilize BetterCloud to automate onboarding and offboarding processes as well as to start adding one-off automation that makes life easier for the team. Changes to calendars, email groups, and shared files as well as personnel relocation between locations are all now automatic. Receiving alerts, seeing reports, and taking proper action are all made simple when alerts are sent for things like  PII data, credit card information, and HIPPA items. Remediation can be completed more quickly and easily because it can be done without requiring regular manual log reviews, for example.

Pros

BetterCloud is frequently simpler than using some of the consoles offered by the providers we interact with. Workflows can incorporate alerts,  enabling us to start a workflow in response to an alert event.  Automating the time-consuming onboarding and offboarding processes. improved user administration and bulk updating options in Google Workspace.  Oversight and control over document sharing in numerous well-known apps. Granular automation for Salesforce user roles, permission sets, and profiles.

Cons

It may take some time to finish any road-mapped improvements. There are still some  Google integrations that must be managed in the original interface designed for Google integration because they are not in the main console. There are certification programs available, but I don't believe BetterCloud certificates are well-known in the IT sector just yet. Finding and exploring workflows might be challenging; the search function needs improvement. A separate website from the main app has Google's DLP  controls. The reporting of automated failures can be enhanced.

Ok tool, but Buyer Beware

Reviewed 6 years ago

I WOULD NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN - BUYER BEWARE! We have a standard Google for Business domain, which they never fully integrated with. Most of their so-called tools, didn't work right and the one that did kind of work was the email monitoring, but even then, the users' email that you are monitoring is simply the tool sending you a TXT file of incoming and outgoing emails, it's can't un decrypt...

Pros

No pros were added to this review

Cons

Horrible customer service Integration with the Google Domain was poor at best

BetterCloud Review

Reviewed 2 years ago

I have seen the evolution of BetterCloud from the beginning of the company and the product was many versions ago that only supported Google. The evolution of this product is allowing administrators to have overall insight into all of their SaaS apps. Companies today need to focus on business process improvement from a sys admin standpoint and BetterCloud is a key player in this for those who cannot afford tools that require heavy security and management.

Pros

This software is great for having a central management point for many of your SaaS applications. Currently, BetterCloud integrates with 60+ SaaS apps that are popular in today's world. The best thing about this is streamlining your onboarding and offboarding processes for all of these apps via workflows. System administrators have difficult times with many SaaS apps and understanding who has access to what. BetterCloud's workflows make it easy to do minimal amounts of clicks to de-provision users in a secure manner, confirm that data is not loss, and save on licensing.

Cons

I use BetterCloud a lot for Google Workspace administration. The tool is still lacking in some areas such as Shared Drives and using groups to control the access that hasn't been developed yet in BetterCloud. Google Workspace has stepped up its playing field with management via security groups and BetterCloud needs to do this as well.

The Better way to manage Google Apps For Business

Reviewed 6 years ago

Single Pane of Google Apps for Business management without the "Pain" of using google's admin page.

Pros

Simpler to use than the google Admin page. This package allows for multiple users with varying levels of access. It is hooked into the Google API and makes it easy for my admins to make needed account changes.

Cons

Sometimes sync with Google can be slow when performing many transactions. Also the "May I help You?" popups can be annowing. If I want to chat with someone I'll chat with someone. You need to assume that anyone using this software is saavy enough to hit the help button when they need to.

A nice app for gsuite management

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

As a gsuite admin it was nice to be able to see at a quick glance if people were sharing docs or forwarding emails they shouldnt' be and to have the ability to setup alerts when it happened. It had a nice UI that made setting up and navigating these changes a breeze.

Cons

They are always updating and adding new features, some are included other are pay to use type of upgrades. Same with integrations often we'd find an integration we wanted to utilize only to be told by our success manager it was considered an addon.

Poor Customer Service

Reviewed 7 years ago

I have found working with this company to be extremely frustrating. On 8/9/15 I was told by email that their rates would be going up. The message said: Should you wish to make changes to your subscription, written confirmation is required 30 days prior to renewal. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us - our first priority is agreeing to a fair price for both our companies. So I wrote on 8/12/15...

Pros

Unknown - I don't use their service, but that doesn't stop them from charging my credit card

Cons

They take your money without authorization

Expensive & better options out there

Reviewed 3 years ago

- Watch your contract. They will raise prices, sometimes double your renewal. - Make sure you give them the full 30 days if you want to cancel otherwise they will lock you in for another year. - They told me they normally don't negotiate with orgs as small as mine.

Pros

- Improved workflow - Great reporting - Easy deprovisions - decent alerting

Cons

- Very expensive, inconsistent pricing - Features behind industry - Clunky UI

Bettercloud helpt om Management beter te laten werken

Reviewed 7 months ago

is goed programma binnen mijn bedrijf

Pros

helpt goed met data te verwerken collega's zijn er blij mee

Cons

Een van de nadelen van BetterCloud kan ook als een Pro worden beschouwd. BetterCloud is voortdurend bezig met het updaten en toevoegen van extra functies, waardoor het moeilijk kan zijn om recente wijzigingen bij te houden
