"Good documentation and very straightforward to implement and use."
"The most valuable feature is that the solution can be deployed in the cloud which removes the expense of a server."
"The most valuable feature for me in the OpenShift Container Platform is the option to manage different containers and environments and also being able to switch among them."
"The most valuable features are the monitoring and logging functionalities."
"The product is stable, reliable, and easy to use, from a well-known company, has a large volume handling capacity, and more and more organizations are moving to OpenShift."
"Autoscaling is an excellent feature that makes it very simple to scale our applications as required."
"The architecture is the best. The solution is scalable if you are on a container-based solution."
