Find out what your peers are saying about Red Hat, Amazon Web Services (AWS), VMware and others in Container Management."Portainer comes with the ability to take the information of docker definition. Using it, I can visually observe how the container has been created. It allows me to create networks. I can also visually generate volumes and working stacks."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and logging functionalities."
"The console or the GUI of OpenShift is awesome. You can do a lot of things from there. You can perform administration tasks as well as development tasks."
"The stack in the software supply chain is one of the main reasons that we use OpenShift. When I came to this company, we bought hardware from IBM named Bluemix, and they used ICP, which stands for IBM Cloud Private."
"Autoscaling is an excellent feature that makes it very simple to scale our applications as required."
"Red Hat's security throughout the stack and software supply chain is good. It is a lightweight operating system. You don't have to worry about the security patches on the system. You can update the entire environment with security patches, which is a nice feature."
"The banking transactions, inquiries, and account opening have been the most valuable."
"Centralized control of container resources is most valuable."
"The platform is easy to scale as it supports Windows worker node."
"Portainer needs to be more intuitive."
"OpenShift Container Platform could improve by having better integration."
"One area for improvement is that we can't currently run Docker inside a container, as it clashes with security consents. It would be good if we could change that."
"OpenShift Container Platform is an expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"The monitoring and logging could be improved."
"There is room for improvement with integration."
"My impression is that this solution is pretty expensive so I think the pricing plan could improve."
"OpenShift has certain restrictions in terms of managing the cluster when it's running on a public cloud. For example, identity and access management integration with the IM of AWS is quite difficult. It requires some open-source tools to integrate. This is one area where I always see room for improvement."
"The price needs to be improved in OpenShift Container Platform. When I choose this, the product is the first factor that we have to make a long analysis to compare the real cost for the other services. However, price is high."
