"The solution is easy to install.""I think that with Docker, it is easy to deploy it on different platforms.""The most valuable features of Docker are its security, detailed documentation, and ease of use, and the Docker Swarm is not as complex as Kubernetes.""There are ways of using Docker where you have absolutely no dependencies on the environment that you work in.

Cons
"The main issue that we found with Dome9 is that we have a default rule set with better recommendations that we want to use. So, you do a clone of that rule set, then you do some tweaks and customizations, but there is a problem. When they activate the default rule set with the recommendations and new security measures, it doesn't apply the new security measures to your clones profile. Therefore, you need to clone the profile again. We are already writing a report to Check Point.""I would like to see Test B functions at the application access level.""We have had some issues with the performance. In some cases, the performance of CloudGuard CNAPP is impacted. Particularly during the intensive security scans in high-traffic environments, there has been a performance impact.""We're looking for a solution that can incorporate legacy infrastructure for some of our business needs.""Reporting should have more options.""The product must provide different features like antivirus.""We were demotivated by the lack of native automation modules for the Terraform and Ansible tools.""The tool has a lot of potential, but today, it lacks a lot of Scripts/Bots for Azure."

"The volumes for persistent storage could be more user friendly right out of the box.""Docker could improve by providing the ability to use the GPU for parallel processing. If there was the capability of using the GPU it would improve the machine learning that I want to use.""There are elements of stability that are problematic. One of the most recent upgrades created a major incident on our cloud, whereby the containers were not restarting automatically.""Docker could improve by having security vulnerability reports.""The command line interface could be more intuitive. I constantly struggle with it.""They should provide proper documentation to understand the solution's cgroup process.""The solution could improve with a GUI instead of only a command line interface. Having to use the command line interface can be a hassle.""Marketing of Docker is one area that needs to improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "​They support either annual licensing or hourly. At the time of our last negotiation, it was either one or the other, you could not mix or match. I would have liked to mix/match. ​"
  • "I would advise taking into account the existing number of devices and add a forecast of the number of devices to be added in the coming year or two, to obtain better pricing."
  • "It is a very straightforward licensing model that is based on the number of assets you are discovering and managing with the solution."
  • "The licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads (number of instances) within one license with no additional nor hidden charges. If you want to have 200 workloads under Dome9, then you need to take out two licenses for that. Also, it does not have any impact on cloud billing, as data is shared using the API call. This is well within the limit of free API calls provided by the cloud provider."
  • "I suggest that you pay attention to the product pricing because while there are no tricks, and the licensing model is transparent, the final numbers may surprise you."
  • "Right now, we have licenses on 500 machines, and they are not cheap."
  • "The pricing is tremendous and super cheap. It is shockingly cheap for what you get out of it. I am happy with that. I hope that doesn't get reported back and they increase the prices. I love the pricing and the licensing makes sense. It is just assets: The more stuff that you have, the more you pay."
  • "Licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads within one license and no additional charges."

  • "Docker is a free open-source solution. However, there is the Docker Enterprise which is a paid solution."
  • "There is a license needed to use Docker."
  • "We are using the open-source version of the solution."
  • "Docker is a free open-source solution."
  • "The current cost for us is nothing as an open source."
  • "This is an open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
  • "Docker is cost-effective and open-source."
  • "For commercial use, it's about $30 per month. The license itself isn't expensive, but if there are many users, the price becomes high."
