For a company that operates at such massive scale for their own services, Google has some glaring oversights when it comes to enterprise services.
I have a friend who volunteers as a webmaster for a charity org and they kept getting notices about their impending shut down of G Suite and the need to move to Google Workspace. The problem seemed to be a credit card and yet, when my friend was showing me on his laptop, there was no place for them to enter credit card information. They ended up losing all their email and Drive & Docs access for days and couldn't even get an email or phone address - paid or not - to address the issue.
After getting burned at a mid-sized business I used to work at with Angular 1.x and Google Glass, I learned that Google apparently sees business services as experiments rather than long-term investments.
- christophilus 4y agoWas Angular 1.x an official Google thing? I always thought it was just a Google employee’s project.
- skybrian 4y agoI doubt it was ever an official Google product because open source packages generally aren't. But there was a team at Google working on it when Angular 1.x was big.
- alphaomegacode 4y agoI'm not sure if it was ever an official thing but I remember accessing their pages and speaking to their reps at conferences regarding Angular. For example, if you look at the Angular 1.2 docs, look at the bottom of the page here and you'll see Google included their copyright on those docs https://code.angularjs.org/1.2.27/docs/guide/ie https://code.angularjs.org/1.2.27/docs/guide/ie
