Find out in this report how the two Container Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is easy to manage. You can get everything in a single platform. It is also easy to work with Terraform as a code."
"We can do a lot of provisioning."
"The most valuable features of the Nutanix Kubernetes Engine (NKE) are its simplicity and efficiency during the initial cluster creation phase."
"The product integrates well with our infrastructure."
"The solution is embedded in the hypervisor and there are no deployment costs."
"We can add some add-ons and plugins to the product if we need to."
"The technical support is excellent."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable are security features, particularly when operating in the cloud."
"The solution's security throughout the stack and the software supply chain is very reliable. When it was on-prem, it was by default secured by our company firewalls and security tools, and now it's in the cloud, which has its security and systems in place. This provides stability to our infrastructure."
"I think it's a pretty scalable tool...The solution's technical support has been pretty good."
"The usability and the developer experience. The platform has a centralized consultant that is easy to use for our development, operations and security teams."
"OpenShift is a user-friendly container platform with a solid GUI that helps you follow what is going on and gives you an overview of all your clusters. It's more user-friendly than the Kubernetes itself. The interface helps you learn the platform and provides access to some features or specific comments."
"The best feature is the management for the port life cycle, which automatically recycles, pulls, and scales up and down based on needs and requests."
"Dashboards... give us all the details we need to see about the microservices."
"The platform is easy to scale as it supports Windows worker node."
"I have issues with the product's interoperability."
"There have been challenges related to software bugs, especially regarding long-term licensing options and issues within our customer network."
"The product lacks some virtualization capabilities, making it an area for improvement where the solution can focus on providing users with more virtualization capabilities related to disk systems."
"We need a backup of production clusters."
"Areas for improvement in Nutanix Kubernetes Engine (NKE) include upgrading management capabilities and enhancing the user interface for improved usability."
"In the next release, I would like to have automatic dynamic scaling, both upscaling and downscaling."
"I would like to have more nodes for availability and storage."
"GUI lacks sufficient information to help with understanding the installation and process."
"The product monitoring tool does not work for us."
"The UI could be more user-friendly to drive tasks more effectively through the interface."
"We've encountered challenges when transitioning applications between these environments."
"The setup process is not great."
"OpenShift has a pretty steep learning curve. It's not an easy tool to use. It's not only OpenShift but Kubernetes itself. The good thing is that Red Hat provides specific targeted training. There are five or six pieces of training where you can get certifications. The licenses for OpenShift are pretty expensive, so they could be cheaper because the competition isn't sleeping, and Red Hat must take that into account."
"The solution does not work on a route-wise NFS."
"It is difficult to deploy the OpenShift cluster in a bare-metal environment."
"Things are there and the documentation is there, however, there still needs to be quick guides available."
