Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform Reviews

It's a good tool and a very comprehensive tool. There are a lot of things to explore. I'm still exploring, I'm not done with it yet.

The UI is good.

It’s user-friendly.

The product offers good customization.

There will be things that can improve, however, at this stage I cannot give a point or two. Maybe after a few months, I can give more details.

One improvement I can suggest is for the people who are not very competent with technology, for the product to give some tips on the screen, to make it easier for them. Things are there and the documentation is there, however, there still needs to be quick guides available. Then it will be easier for people to adapt and learn. Rather than going to big documentation, if there is some quick help or quick guide available and then it would help people to quickly adapt and learn.

It still has to improve compatibility with a couple of more platforms. It works with many however we are still trying to improvise more on a couple of other platforms. Integration seems to take a little bit of time. It would be nice if it was expanded and simplified a bit.

I’ve been using the solution for the last five or six months.

The solution is stable. It works for me. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn’t crash or freeze.

It is a scalable product. So far, we are not using it in production, so we currently have below 50 users. When it will be in production then there will be more.

If the testing goes well we do plan to increase usage.

I’m getting good support so far. I am happy with them.

We did previously use a different solution. Both are good products. They each have their own benefits.

I don’t have a license. I don’t deal with licensing directly.

I’d rate the solution seven out of ten. We haven’t used it too long. It’s still in production. After six months, we’ll likely have a better idea of how it is going.

The complexity of the installation could be reduced. While we got the necessary support, the instructions could be clearer.

We started using OpenShift recently.

It is quite stable.

In terms of scalability, I don't see any challenges.

Technical support is good; they are fast and reliable.

The initial setup is complex, but we got the necessary support. So, there were no major issues or challenges.

The price is slightly on the higher side. It is something that can be worked on because most of the businesses now have margins.

You should map the requirements of the solution that you're looking for before jumping into a container platform, but if you are looking for a container platform, OpenShift is a good option. I would rate it at eight on a scale from one to ten.

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.

OpenShift's documentation could be better. It's difficult to document everything you need in a specific use case. You have to seek some support or spend a few minutes trying to figure out what's going on.

Another thing that bugs me is that they removed the software in NFS storage. I don't understand why because this is a common type of storage. I am having problems with that, so I wish they would put it back. 

I've been dealing with the OpenShift Container Platform for about two years. I am not an end-user, but I develop solutions with it. I test, make proofs of concept, and design solutions that run on top of it, like Cloud Pak.

OpenShift has great technicians who work with developers. It's nice to have access to real product developers when you contact tech support.

I rate OpenShift Container Platform eight out of 10. It's an excellent solution. It might be a bit more difficult to maintain than some solutions, but it brings you a lot of value. 

OpenShift Container Platform could improve by having better integration.

I have been using the OpenShift Container Platform for approximately one month.

The solution is stable. However, it depends on the integrations of the solution on how stable it will be, such as what tools you integrate with.

I have not contacted support.

The license to use the OpenShift Container Platform is free. If you are capable with Java you can modify it.

OpenShift Container Platform is an open-source solution. My advice to others is to get to the basics, the similar the better.

I rate OpenShift Container Platform a six out of ten.
