I like cloud firestore and firebase platform very much. It would be nice to have more query features. A simple "!=" is not possible.

Also an automatic backup would be nice (and can't be that hard to offer?).

We're looking at more comprehensive backup solutions, but in the meantime we have a fully managed export system you can schedule (https://cloud.google.com/firestore/docs/manage-data/export-i...) with the added benefit of this exports being importable into BigQuery for ad-hoc analytics (https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/loading-data-cloud-fi...)
