Pros
"Mirantis Container Cloud operates similarly to how we interact with databases. It provides a comprehensive platform for deploying and managing containerized applications across cloud environments.""This solution has cut down on our development time and allows us to spin off new instances for inner development, testing, productions, and security testing.""The solution containerizes software.""The UI is very useful.""I think the volume binding is a really interesting feature.""The most valuable aspect is the excellent support. In addition, the billing system is really easy to understand.""The product's most valuable feature is cloud simulation to predict application behavior on the cloud.""I use Docker in combination with Kubernetes. Management of software packages is easy. It also can be done fast. Rolling out new software updates is smoother and faster due to Mirantis Container Cloud."

"Qualys VM is very stable.""It's stable and quite reliable.""Qualys VM has allowed us to know the vulnerabilities we need to prioritize based on the threat levels and the possible impact if there's an intrusion.""I am impressed with the VMDR feature.""It is a simple solution that makes scanning easy. You just give it a scheduled task, and it will do everything for you.""Vulnerability management is the most valuable one and it’s a must in every organization.""It is very easy to use and there are lots of options. We can usually easily go through it and all of the things we want to configure, and we can configure everything to our specifications very easily.""The most valuable features of Qualys VM are its ability to do proper vulnerability assessment. It has a lot of updates for all the vulnerability databases from all over the globe. It's an amazing solution when it comes to the versatility of the features it has. Additionally, the reports are very good. It generates very detailed reports about the vulnerabilities inside the environment"

Cons
"The solution's stability could be improved.""I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world.""In my previous years, I have brainstormed about the development of Container software. I have recently shifted focus, but the knowledge gained from those were really helpful. In my experience, Containers have their own complexities and to implement them, open source information is crucial. A software with new features would be beneficial. I suggest to implement a flow-based approach for container sequences, similar to Google Cloud's machine learning. The current process of deploying containers involves too many steps, and a more streamlined method would be appreciated. I've even automated deployment using APIs. Overall, simplifying container management and deployment processes would be valuable.""The solution would benefit in improvements made to the storage, cleaning up information from the disk, and reading logs.""I find Docker easier to use, but I gave it to an inexperienced developer and it took him a lot of time to understand.""Sometimes the basic support is a bit difficult if you have a firewall and cloud servers behind the firewall and then try to implement the backup solution, it is a bit difficult to do by yourself.""With the Mirantis runtime being removed from Kubernetes, which is the industry-wide standard for orchestration of containers, I think it's going in a direction that is not super scalable.""I feel that the product lacks to offer a proper health status of the images which are running, making it an area where improvements are required."

"Qualys does have an on-prem solution, but it is very expensive.""What we have found is that the solution is not closely tied with the patch management. It is okay with newer ones, like Windows 10 machines; it gives the correct patch. But for Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008, it does not give us the correct patch so we have to manually identify the patches. This is a major problem.""I would like to see this solution more developed and competitive in the Cloud space.""The tool needs to improve the adding assets and report generation features. I would like to see the policy scan of offline appliances in the product's future releases.""I would like to have CSPM, a continuous scan-like cloud added to the solution.""Qualys VM could improve by having more skilled support personnel.""Qualys VM's vulnerability scan could be improved, especially the number of CVE numbers it can manage at a time.""It is more expensive vs. other products on the market."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Mirantis Container Cloud stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Two major ones are its deployment of images and the portability of its containers. PeerSpot users take note of the advantages of these features in their reviews:

    Cristina C., Test Architect at a tech services company, writes of the solution, “The idea that you can configure an image, deploy it, and it can be reused and redeployed with the same setup over and over again is a valuable feature.

    A DevOps Engineer at a tech services company, notes, “I like that Mirantis’ main products of containers are very portable. Any possible issues, problems, or troubles are fixed with improvements of the platform itself. Any constraints that Mirantis [has], have been fixed with other products or features that Mirantis provides.”
