DeepakReddy - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr.Devops engineer at Scaler
Unified CI/CD and multi-cluster control have transformed how we manage Kubernetes workloads
The best feature that Devtron Enterprise offers is the Kubernetes-native CI/CD integration, allowing me to build my CI/CD pipeline on Kubernetes natively. It already includes Kubernetes controllers and operators, which are written by Devtron and provided to me. With the help of that, I build CI/CD pipelines and deployment pipelines, and I can also do GitOps using it, which performs rollbacks and multi-stage approval. I can conduct blue-green deployment, canary deployment, and AB deployment or AB testing—all achievable using that. Regarding the features, security has many valuable aspects. By default, Kubernetes provides RBAC and all that, and on top of it, Devtron Enterprise provides many other functions such as policy management, compliance controls, audit logs, and single sign-on. Everything can be done using Devtron Enterprise, and observability can also be performed through a built-in dashboard where I can see all the logs of pods and deployments, including metrics and events. It easily integrates with Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki, and it just takes some time to follow the documentation to integrate with all these tools.

Cloud Infrastructure Engineer at Safaricom Ethiopia plc
Has supported container-based deployments and improved infrastructure visibility through monitoring tools
Aria Operations, formerly known as VMware vRealize Operations, has been renamed to vROps. We are currently using this for monitoring purposes. For orchestration, we are using VCD to automate Telco Cloud. VCD is an automation tool, and we are also using VMware Tanzu Platform for the Kubernetes environment, alongside TKG, Tanzu Kubernetes Grid. These are also other solutions for the Tanzu Kubernetes environment. For Telco Cloud, we are using it to automate our company's operations, which is for a telecom company. We are familiar with these products, especially vCenter, ESXi, VCD, vCF, and vROps. It is very easy to integrate applications when we deploy vCenter and ESXi since we can enable vSphere with Tanzu feature. We can build namespaces and provide application developers the platform to deploy their applications on pods within containerization. We can easily manage, pull results, and create containers efficiently, making it a simple way to handle applications. We provide namespace labels for application developers, and we can manage their resources along with other aspects easily. Regarding security, we use many tools such as CDX and LDAP, AD for integrating our Kubernetes cluster with the developer teams. We can manage roles and permissions simply. It is very straightforward to integrate with EDX and other third-party tools, Active Directory, to the Kubernetes cluster, allowing easy access and management.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Devtron Enterprise provides an all-in-one solution that combines cost optimization, cluster management, and all of that, which is why I continued with it."
"Devtron Enterprise has significantly simplified my Kubernetes deployment workflow."
"The most valuable feature of VMware Tanzu Mission Control is the management functionality of the cluster life cycle. Additionally, the solution integrates well with other vendors, such as Velero for backups and Sonobuoy for compliance. Additionally, it works well in multi-cluster environments."
"The support from VMware is very good."
"The most popular feature of VMware Tanzu Mission Control is its graphical user interface for describing network policies on the Service Mesh, which is highly integrable with other tools commonly used in supply chains such as security."
"I have multiple Kubernetes environments within my environment, and TMC gives me a single pane view, which is good for managing everything."
"The observability platform and end-to-end service portal provided by Tanzu are the most valuable features."
"Tazu is a developer-friendly and highly mature product."
"A feature we find valuable is that other products can also be integrated with Mission Control. This means that we can see the status of specific clusters, as well as view the monitoring application logs all from one point."
"It has provided us with one central point where we can easily track our product QA, and our project resources, across multiple projects and multiple business units."
 

Cons

"Devtron Enterprise can be improved by enhancing customization options for complex enterprise workflows."
"One area for improvement in Devtron Enterprise is that I find the UI somewhat complex, and it can be improved."
"The biggest gap for me was just that the solution is relatively tied to Cloud Foundry. If you have anything you need to deploy outside of that, it becomes burdensome."
"This product doesn't have a GUI. In order to use it properly, I need to connect it to a new GUI or build a GUI to manage it — it's pretty difficult."
"The price is very high compared to other Kubernetes environments because Kubernetes is open source."
"Cost is always a concern. Smaller companies might find the price a bigger issue."
"The solution is currently focused on VMware infrastructure and I would like to see more options made available."
"The implementation is not easy, it is very complex and can take a day or two to complete."
"The disaster recovery feature could be improved to provide better tracking of issues. I would also like to see the introduction of a dashboard view, for even further integration of all the areas that Mission Control looks at."
"I would like to see additional support for things outside of Cloud Foundry."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is not the most expensive option, and I believe the capabilities align well with the value it provides."
"The solution is bundled in with Cloud Foundry so the pricing is not independent."
"The product is not expensive, but it is not cheap."
"The licensing cost is expensive."
"There are different licenses available. You have to upgrade your license if you want to scale the solution more."
"The least expensive licensing cost for VMware is around $350 per core."
"Since we were at a large data center, the price might not have been a concern for us."
"Its pricing is very competitive. We get around 70% or 75%, sometimes even 80%, discount on the product. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing."
