We performed a comparison between Red Hat OpenShift and Virtuozzo Application Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The developers seem to like the source-to-image feature. That makes it easy for them to deploy an application from code into containers, so they don't have to think about things. They take it straight from their code into a containerized application. If you don't have OpenShift, you have to build the container and then deploy the container to, say, EKS or something like that."
"This solution helps us to account for peak seasons involving higher demand than usual. It also gives us confidence in the security of our overall systems."
"The security features of OpenShift are strong when in use of role-based access."
"OpenShift offers robust tools for monitoring application traffic, allowing us to analyze client requests and other business-related metrics."
"Great integration with Jenkins for constant integration and development. Supports all the major languages and environments - PHP, Java, Node.js, Ruby, etc."
"There is a quick deployment of the application, and we can scale out efficiently."
"I love to automate everything and OpenShift was been born for that. It takes care of the network layer itself and I don't need to dive into it; I can work on a top level. Our project has numerous services designed to run in Docker containers, and we have run almost all pieces in OpenShift."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is the great customer service and the ability for our team to get assistance when we need it."
"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
"The solution is scalable, and that is what we are looking at. There is no learning curve as we have not done much research."
"The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions."
"Room for improvement is around the offerings that come as a bundle with the container platform. The packaging of the platform should be done such that customers do not have to purchase additional licenses."
"The metrics in OpenShift can use improvement."
"We experienced issues around desktop security, that stopped us implementing a new feature that had been developed."
"The tool lacks some features to make it compliant with Kubernetes"
"There is no orchestration platform in OpenShift."
"The area for improvement is mostly in support for legacy applications."
"My team has found some bugs in OpenShift due to continuous integration, and this is an area for improvement in the platform. RedHat should fix the bugs. Another area for improvement in OpenShift is that upgrading clusters can be challenging, resulting in downtime. Application support also needs improvement in OpenShift because the platform doesn't support all applications in the cloud. I'd like upgraded storage in the next release of OpenShift, especially when I need to do a DR exercise. It would also be good if the platform allows mirroring with another cluster, or more portability in terms of moving applications to another cluster."
"OpenShift can improve monitoring. Sometimes there are issues. Additionally, the solution could benefit from protective tools if something was to happen in our network."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
"Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."
"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."
