We performed a comparison between Docker and VMware Tanzu Mission Control based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Docker is perfect for what I do...The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature is Docker has a fast learning curve."
"The solution is easy to install."
"I think that with Docker, it is easy to deploy it on different platforms."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is automation. When I deploy the solution I am confident it will work anywhere. It is reliable and easy to use."
"We find the auto scaling and auto healing functionality of this solution very good."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the Dockerfile, which makes the life of developers easy. Developers get a real understanding of container creation."
"The current version is quite good with our application."
"The most important thing about the solution is its flexibility."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Defining security metrics has proven beneficial for customers in maintaining a safe environment."
"The multi-tenancy with the VCD is great."
"I have multiple Kubernetes environments within my environment. TMC gives me a single pane view, which is good for managing everything."
"VMware Tanzu Mission Control has many valuable features, such as ease of use and customization."
"A feature we find valuable is that other products can also be integrated with Mission Control. This means that we can see the status of specific clusters, as well as view the monitoring application logs all from one point."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Tanzu Mission Control is the management functionality of the cluster life cycle. Additionally, the solution integrates well with other vendors, such as Velero for backups and Sonobuoy for compliance. Additionally, it works well in multi-cluster environments."
"Stability is an area with a shortcoming."
"The security layer is very vulnerable, although they are working to improve the system hardening and email hardening."
"Unfortunately, base images are not currently available."
"The volumes for persistent storage could be more user friendly right out of the box."
"They should provide proper documentation to understand the solution's cgroup process."
"Owing to a few shortcomings in its stability, I would say that its stability can be improved."
"One item that could be improved is the overall stability of Docker."
"The product does not have an extensive documentation. The tool does not have good scenarios. We have to go through the GitHub repository and investigate similar scenarios. Also, if you are copying multiple things, then you can jeopardize the copy number. The copying aspect also lacks a UI part. We also need to limit the memory."
"It is not easy to build a solution with containers. It has a graphical user interface, but you need to have a lot of knowledge of Linux and how to work in the command mode. Its support can also be improved. Currently, its biggest disadvantage is that it is a new product, and the clients prefer to go for a solution that has been in the market for a long time. There are not that many people who know this product."
"LYNX is a managed cluster solution that takes care of specific details within a cluster, such as sequences or services. I haven't seen this feature in Tanzu Mission Control."
"The solution could improve by having better integration with other solutions such as HPE."
"The disaster recovery feature could be improved to provide better tracking of issues. I would also like to see the introduction of a dashboard view, for even further integration of all the areas that Mission Control looks at."
"The network control and security policies must be improved."
"Cost is always a concern. Smaller companies might find the price a bigger issue."
"Tanzu provides better manageability as compared to OCP, but when it comes to tagging it with other products, it's a bit rigid. If I have to bring in any new product or something out of the box from a different vendor, working with Tanzu becomes a little difficult. For example, if I want to use the F5 services, I have to add one more layer of Avi, but I don't want to do that. If I have a list of the products that I want to use, such as for firewall services, with Tanzu, I will have to go through another layer, which creates complexity."
"Having a unified dashboard to manage all infrastructure, whether it involves additional IT infrastructure or modern apps, would be highly advantageous"
