Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Portainer ensures secure delivery of containers and reliability while tracking the managed containers. I like the fact it offers free 5 nodes for the Business Edition to allow, the developers to test Portainer before making a move. The speed at which it operates while uploading images and management of projects. It is easy to master because of its intuitive design (UI). It is also easy to understand docker, containers, and Kubernetes if you are new to the cloud.
  • With the Portainer Business version you have the ability to manage your container cluster like never before, it allows you to use very advanced features such as RBAC to control the roles of Kubernetes nodes, it also allows you to use Helm Charts that makes the deployment of container images very fast, also the option of higher levels of authentication such as oAuth, authentication connecting your Active Directory server for greater robust security.

Cons

  • So far I haven't experienced any setback so far for performance.
  • Using Portainer for more than two years I have not found any difficulties of use, on the contrary it has facilitated my day to day in my DevOps area.
