We performed a comparison between Mirantis Container Cloud and Symantec Data Center Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Virtualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Main products are portable."
"The product is easy to use."
"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."
"I think the volume binding is a really interesting feature."
"If we compare legacy application support to Docker, it's a superior product."
"The initial setup was really easy and the deployment was fast and straightforward."
"You need to make an architectural runway before actually starting to implement Docker Compose, especially in a distributed environment."
"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 real strength lies in its straightforward approach, offering just two key policies: prevention and detection."
"We use the product to prevent unauthorized access to data, systems, and servers. It provides essential features for data center security."
"The most valuable feature is the centralized console, which can handle different products that we have."
"The console and tools are very user-friendly."
"The granularity of applying the policies is valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the endpoint protection system."
"The monitoring in the management console allows us to find out what is going wrong, and it gets reports even before the user reports it."
"The tool will then detect any anomalies, such as an intruder who has breached the network, which can trigger the system lockdown feature if it's enabled and meets the defined threshold."
"There could be an automation feature included in the product. It will speed up application processes and will not require scripting codes."
"I think this solution needs better security due to more risks from the outside world."
"This product will only be useful if it can successfully run legacy applications in the cloud."
"Areas for improvement are the privacy of container management and the documentation. In the next release, I would like to see best practices on how to manage distributed containers and networks."
"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."
"There are a couple of things. Firstly, the vaultStore database within Container isn't as efficient as a standalone Container vault. This needs improvement."
"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."
"This solution is open-source and they need to focus on improving the Linux Operating Systems' GUI. It does not have a GUI making it not user-friendly. Additionally, the containers need to improve security and compliance."
"Could have better reporting capabilities and better support."
"It would be advantageous if Symantec or Broadcom, given the rebranding, could simplify the process, enabling users to leverage the antivirus functionality more easily."
"The support is very bad. They're not fast at all. Trend Micro's support is much better."
"Adding more compatibility with common products like Microsoft would be a plus."
"There is room for improvement in enhancing its graphical user interface for a more user-friendly experience."
"The product blocks certain processes, even after allowlisting them."
"Agent management is a challenging task."
"There is plenty of room for improvement with this product, and it could start with platform metrics."
