We performed a comparison between Cisco Container Platform and Kubernetes based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Red Hat, Amazon Web Services (AWS), VMware and others in Container Management."The most valuable feature is definitely the fact that you can use a single platform to deploy to different resource providers. Right now, the version I'm using has vSphere and AWS, but I know in the future they're planning on adding more. The ability to deploy clusters on-prem or to any number of public cloud providers is really valuable because you don't need to relearn or switch platforms to switch resource providers."
"Kubernetes offers a lot of great features such as scalability and great portability of applications."
"This solution provides a comprehensive way to scale up our ports and containers, without having to use multiple products."
"The scanning and support network."
"The best thing about Kubernetes is that most of the containerized applications are centralized."
"I like the replication center and the configuration."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the scalability."
"You have different pods that interact with each other, so you can identify problems with one pod and replace it."
"It has a complete loading feature set for replica site deployment."
"One thing that is a little bit annoying about Cisco Container Platform is that for each cluster you create you have to go through the same web form each time. If you're creating two identical clusters, you still have to go through that web form twice."
"The price is something they need to improve."
"I think that the GUI dashboard in Kubernetes is very simple and that there are no great options."
"There is a feature called Terraform and, based on the reviews I have read, it could be improved."
"There are several areas where Kubernetes could improve."
"It would be nice if they could make it easier for developers and infrastructure staff to automate some of the pieces that they have to do manually at the moment."
"Kubernetes could improve security. The security is really hard to deploy with proxies and other elements. Additionally, We have had some issues downloading repos and libraries."
"The pricing could be improved. It would be ideal if it was a bit less."
"The tool needs to improve its UI. The tool is very complex and basic."
