Google is leaps and bounds preferable in my experience than Microsoft. I agree with the above. A Microsoft shop isn’t a guarantee the company culture is bad, but it’s correlated enough to be a flag.


Until one needs to reach out to support.


G workspaces support has always been at least decent in my experience. MS support, less so.

Oracle support took the cake however, but that was with a commercial support license and a weird bug triggered by a newly released feature (never do that!) in Oracle DB, many years ago. ORA-600 errors for the ‘win’.


Google's support for their business clients is considered pretty top of class.

The "Google lacks support" chorus we hear frequently is more associated with their free tier.


Where I am we're kind of Dual Stack for various reasons with GCP and Azure.

Microsoft support has been very good. Google support was abysmal and very "you're dumb, we're smart because we're Google" style.

And we pay money for support to both organizations.


That wasn't my experience on the only project I took part on GCP.
