Cons

  • While Gcore Cloud provides an excellent service overall, the billing information is somewhat unclear and complicated, which could use some improvements for a smoother user experience.
  • During implementation, webinars would have been beneficial to accelerate integration. The pricing structure may not be optimal for smaller companies. Introducing flexible tariffs or simplified versions could make the product more accessible to small businesses.
  • Limited Reporting Features: The reporting capabilities of Security+ could be more advanced and comprehensive. We would appreciate more detailed reports and analytics to gain deeper insights into our security posture. Pricing Structure: The pricing structure of the software could be more flexible and transparent, as it currently lacks options that cater to different budget sizes or scalability requirements.
  • Steep Learning Curve: Due to the complexity of the security industry, it took some time for our team to fully grasp all the features and functionalities of the software. A more streamlined onboarding process or additional training resources would have been beneficial. Pricing Structure: The cost of Security software can be quite high, especially for small businesses or startups with limited budgets. It would be helpful if the pricing options were more flexible or offered tiered plans to accommodate organizations of different sizes.
  • Restrictions on the free plan, no warning about server shutdown
