Ease of use: Google Sheets over Firebase by a lot  
Security: I’ve heard Firebase is more secure

You would use cloud variables where the name of the cloud variable is the full path to the property in the Firebase Realtime Database.

It took me a while to feel comfortable using Firebase. But it’s flexible and fast.
