Those features helped me specifically during my project by making it more stable since it used fewer resources, resulting in a cost-efficient deployment, as the machines that I deployed it on used less of the resources than I thought they needed.

Crashes are the main issue I see. I realize that when it comes to disk space utilization, it really goes up so fast, and the main issue comes from running out of space; that is when crashes happen, and that is the only thing I have seen as an area for improvement in Docker.

Docker sometimes has some network-related issues, such as the host network not working, so we switch to a different type of network, and regarding CentOS, we are not using any support since it is freeware, relying only on documentation which serves as our support.

Docker on CentOS can be improved by addressing security concerns, such as sharing the kernel, which leads to weaker isolation than VMs.

I have not seen a return on investment because the deprecation made it so there was none, and if anything, the ROI would have been negative since money and time were spent using something that did not progress.

To achieve a higher rating of 9 or 10, they might need more automation features.

However, documentation could be improved. Documentation could be made more accessible, more readable, and all those things.
