We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud 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."Good information protection feature."
"Data analytics is one of the efficient features as well."
"Being cloud-based saves the provisioning aspect of an on-premises solution."
"I use a virtual machine for remote desktop and Microsoft Azure is user-friendly."
"Offers many data security features including securing network access."
"We have found the user interface to be intuitive. Microsoft is a master at UI."
"One of the features I have found to be valuable is the scale set feature."
"My experience with technical support so far is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud is the UI console. We are able to receive the resources from the console directly."
"Our pipeline integrates various monitoring tools like Fortify for security checks. Once the pipeline processes the code, the finished product is deployed on Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud. We ensure application setup and recovery by utilizing two separate clusters on OpenShift."
"The portability, moving from one platform to another, is easy."
"The solution offers the most robust Kubernetes orchestration available."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The deployment mechanism has become more dynamic with the use of the product."
"In general, customers appreciate its ability to run different workloads, manage applications through CI/CD pipelines like Jenkins, and leverage tools like Helm charts and Kako."
"Azure could be improved with better security. The world is changing and their security could be better. Compared to five years ago, many of these cloud systems are a lot better, especially since you can set up a private cloud and configure your services to make it more secure."
"The solution's email hosting pricing could be improved."
"Any time you use a cloud service, there are increased security risks. If you want more security, you have to have private hosting."
"The solution should emulate what MuleSoft is doing. At the moment MuleSoft has a lot of other features compared to Azure API integration."
"The security of the solution could always be much better."
"I would prefer Microsoft Azure to increase the free trial, then developers can take advantage, and it could increase their sales."
"There are times when using a service in Microsoft Azure can be confusing because you have four or five options that do similar operations. It would be helpful if there was a clear decision tree around those features. Microsoft does provide a lot of decision trees around a lot of their services, but it's not for everything."
"Technical support needs improvement."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"The service mesh integrations could improve the solution."
"The installation and configuration procedure should be simplified."
"The effectiveness is satisfactory, and there haven't been any additional fees due to meeting demands. However, there's room for improvement in pricing, performance, and stability. Regarding the UI, it could be more user-friendly and integrated with various platforms. Currently, the UI lacks user-friendliness, especially for developers unfamiliar with container technology. Expecting them to create YAML files for security purposes is unrealistic without proper guidance or experience. This aspect needs improvement."
"The general purpose solution tries to cater to too many customers so it is heavy."
"Making it even more cost-effective could be explored."
"There is room for improvement in cluster-based queue monitoring and autoscaling."
