We are using Firebase Authentication for backend services authentication and for users to authenticate on our app. We were facing an issue with backend services authentication.
Pros
Authentication for Services.
Authentication for users on the app.
It is a very easy to use SDKs.
Cons
I feel its pricing should be taken as a part of consideration.
We faced issue with the ingestion logs.
Some of the sources apart from google are not able to send data.
Likelihood to Recommend
Firebase is very well suited for authenticating backend services & for authenticating users on your app.
We use Firebase as a company portal for the creation, execution, authentication, and development of web and mobile applications. The implementation of the platform is fast and simple, it offers excellent functions so that the process with our applications is functional and effective. It currently integrates with more than 100 platforms, such as Slack, Google Ads, Play Store, and BigQuery, tools that we frequently use for different processes.
Pros
Simple, scalable and intuitive UX/UI.
Multiple interactions, including social media platforms.
Creation and successful execution of applications.
Ability to supervise and monitor application performance.
Cons
Firebase is a powerful platform, it provides simple and intuitive access control.
Likelihood to Recommend
Firebase works very well with other tools, thanks to its many integrations. We frequently integrate it with Slack and Jira, our team's main project planning and communication tools. The implementation is simple and we use it for projects such as application modernization, that is, to convert applications to microservices or container-based applications.

Firebase is used as a storage service in the organization. There is less time required for managing the servers. It is a managed service. It is very easy to integrate with the blackened. The user login feature uses firebase as the blackened. It is also integrated with the google cloud function service.
Pros
Database storage.
Config store.
Authentication.
Cons
Real time data base.
Paging in web application.
Versioning and dependency.
Likelihood to Recommend
Firebase is well suited for applications that the user wants to use for authentication, web storage, or real-time storage for web applications. It works really well for backend storage for web applications. It is less suitable for use cases for big data analytics or running ETL pipelines. It is not suitable for machine learning pipelines for storing vectors.
Our mobile team is currently using Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics and very recently expanding our usage to include RemoteConfig.
With the RemoteConfig, we are using to configure feature flags remotely. The online console is very intuitive and the SDK is easy to implement. This address the problem of being able to toggle on/off features remotely without having to make a new release.
Likely for Crashlytics and Analytics, we find the SDK incredibly easy to use and with plenty of public resources/tutorials available.
Pros
SDK is incredibly well documented and stable
Excellent public resource on stackoverflow
Most app already uses a part of Firebase in one way or another, so adding the other toolsets is incredibly straightforward.
Cons
Part of the source code may still be written in Obj-C it would be nice to migrate over completely to Swift.
Likelihood to Recommend
Firebase is well established in the mobile space, SDK is easy to implement, and documentation is well written. I would strongly recommend Firebase for any production application where the developer is interested in trucking crashes, their occurrence frequencies.
Analytic is another one of those tools where it's been used in almost every production app that I work on.

Firebase was a great choice for us to build our apps. Since it provides Mobile Backend as a Service it helps us to save our time. For our project, we needed a remote database in the cloud. After comparing most of the cloud solutions, finally, we decided to go with firebase because of its good with overall performance, great documentation and, of course, its a product by the Google brand. It was easy to use and just needed basic coding skills. It is powerful enough to make you satisfied.
Pros
Data is structured in a simple understandable manner.
The free version is nearly similar to premium version.
Provides authentication services such as Google, Facebook, and email to authenticate user.
Cons
In the free version there are a limitations on number of simultaneous connections.
If u need relational, complicated queries, its not the best solution.

Best cloud solution for mobile application development. It made it so easy to build real-time apps. It's the ultimate solution for so many problems that we've been going through for a long time. It is really easy to integrate with the development application. There are a lot of guides and tutorials to learn Firebase in less time.
