Cons
"Pivotal Cloud Foundry is not scalable, infinitely, because when you install it on a set of virtual machines it is very hard to scale. It's easy to scale on an application level, but not it is not similar to if you were using Amazon. Amazon you can scale thousands of applications.""I'd like to see a larger service offering.""Regarding the setup phase, every step is a hurdle. With Pivotal Cloud Foundry, I won't get any proper resources for that. Even if I Google it, there is no proper solution for Pivotal Cloud Foundry.""In the next release, they should offer additional applications for the databases, and improve the deployment experience.""It should offer more security features.""Something that can be done better is canary deployment. So, right now, we're using blue-green deployment. The support for canary deployment would be nice.""Pivotal Cloud Foundry could improve the documentation. They are good, but they could improve more. Additionally, it would be beneficial if there were more use case examples.""Pivotal Cloud Foundry could improve on the technology it is a bit complex."

More Pivotal Cloud Foundry Cons →

"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows.""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.""Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."

Pricing and Cost Advice

  • "The price of Pivotal Cloud Foundry is based on the customer's requirements. However, the price is comparable to other similar solutions."

  • "The pricing is on the higher side and there are cheaper options available."
  • "We do pay for the licensing cost because we have opted for a private cloud setup. So, it is a cloud setup, and we have to make payments based on the cloud size. I do not consider it very costly when comparing it to the market."
  • More Pivotal Cloud Foundry Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
