What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a highly stable product. I rate the stability a ten out of ten.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The product has reasonable pricing. It is an affordable solution but needs a learning effort to understand industrial-grade security.

What other advice do I have?

OpenShift facilitates DevOps practices and improves CI/CD workflows in terms of stability compared to Jenkins. We receive new versions of the plugin in timely intervals. If we do not upgrade the plugins, it introduces some security vulnerabilities at a corporate level.

I advise others to go for the product as it offers high security and reliability. I rate it an eight out of ten.
