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."The solution has proven to be quite stable so far."
"It very quickly provisions servers, infrastructure, and apps on the fly and complies with security requirements and data safety."
"The solution is similar to a plug-and-play system, it is easy to use."
"The cycle development time is pretty fast, and there's very good coupling within the whole set of Microsoft tools, from database to the ETL engine, ingestion through Azure Data Factory, then modeling Synapse Analytics, and reporting through Power BI."
"We can easily access and integrate data sources from other platforms."
"The most valuable feature is the interface."
"Being able to set up, change and configure VMs is easy - a lot easier than in AWS."
"We didn't have any problems setting it up."
"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 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."
"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."
"The portability, moving from one platform to another, is easy."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The solution offers the most robust Kubernetes orchestration available."
"The platform should be available at the same price worldwide."
"I believe that some of the services need to be available on the on-premises version and not only based on the cloud."
"Improvements are needed in Azure to enhance integration tools and support for effectively migrating and managing third-party dependencies."
"The solution is less mature than AWS."
"Dashboards and reporting could be improved."
"The documentation can be outdated and is not as clear in Microsoft Azure as it is in AWS or Google."
"We have reported some bugs we encountered, and it would be good if those bugs were resolved more quickly."
"Technical support could be improved."
"Making it even more cost-effective could be explored."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in cluster-based queue monitoring and autoscaling."
"The general purpose solution tries to cater to too many customers so it is heavy."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"The service mesh integrations could improve the solution."
"The installation and configuration procedure should be simplified."
