Integrated pipelines have accelerated continuous deployment and improved incident response
The powerful thing about Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is for deploying how to install our application, how to deploy it, and it is easy to work with this platform to do DevOps or CI/CD. It is easy to do CI/CD with this platform and to add functionality in our application. We can add functionality in our application easily with this platform. We can go quickly from dev testing, integrating, and deploying quickly with this platform. The integrated CI/CD pipelines of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform have a time-saving impact on our development process. When we use the CI/CD functionality, the main saving is really important compared to combining many other tools to have the same result. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, you have everything integrated, but in other platforms, you have to set up many tools to have the same output. In Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, it is ready to set up, or almost set up; you only have to configure it. Time-saving is one of the important things.

Automated updates have streamlined deployments and now support consistent multi‑cloud replication
Replicated offers features that help reduce the implementation time, which is why we are considering using it. I used it for testing the environment with our use case. We were running in a cloud and used the Kubernetes options. We replicated it to host our web page and then removed it to the Kubernetes cluster again, which was working fine. I did not have any problems during that process. The automated update is a good feature because you do not lose a lot of time during the entire process, and there is no stop phase or anything that could fail. When initially installing the product and then applying patches, we do not have any problems. We tried to integrate Replicated with DevOps tools. We tested integrating with Azure DevOps and GitHub, and we did not have any problems at that time. We did not have GitLab or any other tool available.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features include high availability, scalability, and security. Other features like advanced cluster management, advanced cluster security, and Red Hat Quay make it powerful for businesses. It also comes with features like OpenShift Virtualization."
"The software is user-friendly and straightforward to use, which is favorable to a developer."
"The auto scalability feature, which is based on smart agendas, determined from pre-prepared rules is the most valuable feature. You can also create different routes for deployment. Deployment types can be provided with an identifier, such as an ARB deployment. This really helped in rolling out releases without disrupting services for the end-users."
"It's a good tool and a very comprehensive tool."
"If I summarize the main benefit of this solution for my customers, it is the management of both virtualized and containerized environments, where the containerization will be more focused in the future."
"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."
"The console or the GUI of OpenShift is awesome. You can do a lot of things from there. You can perform administration tasks as well as development tasks."
"The architecture is the best, and the solution is scalable if you are on a container-based solution."
"Replicated is a good tool that enables all software vendors that want to package over the web."
 

Cons

"In my experience, the issues are not always simply technical. They do stem from technical challenges, but they struggle with the topic of adoption. When you encounter all of the customer pull, there are normally several tiers of your client pop that can adopt either the fundamental features or a little more advanced ones. The majority of the time, the challenge is determining how to drive adoption, how to sell the product to the customer, and how much time they can spend to really utilize those advanced features. If we get into much more detail, but this is from my perspective as the platform engineer and not the end customer, the ability of the end user to be able to debug potential issues with their application That is arguably the most important, let's say, work throughput in my area."
"The price must be improved."
"The interface has numerous UI bugs that need addressing."
"It can take 10 to 15 minutes to deploy a microservice. The CI/CD process takes a long time, and if it's because of OCP, that is something that can be changed."
"The setup process is not great and could be better."
"The pricing is quite high. It would be nice if they could make it more competitive."
"Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform needs some improvements, for example, in upgrade time, as normally, an extended upgrade method should be allowed, but sometimes if anyone clicks twice, it tries to upgrade the second level and gets stuck, so that area should be enhanced."
"We are not big customers of Red Hat, but sometimes, we have severe bugs. We are very innovative, and sometimes, we have to wait for a long time to get proper attention. Red Hat should improve on that."
"The licensing cost could be improved, as some of the entitlements do not fit with the copies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We currently have an annual license renewal."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than expected."
"I'm not familiar with pricing or financial aspects. In terms of effort versus benefit, it's worth it."
"The product pricing is competitive and structured around vCPU subscriptions, aligning with our application requirements."
"The pricing is expensive for licensing."
"The pricing and licensing are handled on an upper management level, and I'm not involved in that, but I understand the solution to be somewhat pricey."
"The solution is expensive, and I rate it an eight out of ten. There is a subscription called OpenShift Plus, which offers additional features and products the vendor provides to complement the OpenShift Container Platform. These include ACM, Red Hat Quay, and Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation."
"The license to use the OpenShift Container Platform is free. If you are capable with Java you can modify it."
