What differentiates Firebase from other similar products?
Firebase stands out from other backend platforms thanks to its deep integration with Google services, real-time capabilities (like Firestore and Realtime Database), seamless cross-platform SDKs, and a unified suite that covers everything from hosting and authentication to analytics and machine learning—all without needing to manage infrastructure.

What do you dislike most about this product?

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you're considering Firebase, start small and take advantage of its integrated tools like Authentication and Firestore to rapidly prototype—just be mindful of pricing as you scale, learn how security rules work early on, and evaluate whether its serverless model fits your app's complexity and future needs.
