Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat OpenShift

We are looking to have it replace over time our ESXI as well as allow for more seamless containerization.

Pros

  • Integration with podman
  • Visibility into the entire infrastructure from a single pane
  • Deployment of test environments

Cons

  • Find a way to use cloudinit
  • A more simplified setup for groups of servers
  • More point and click setups for non-kubernetes and linux users.
  • Projected to save us considerably over VMWare
  • Lower time cost for admin staff
  • Reach advancement goals earlier.
They do, and usually with less resource draw than a standard install on VMs
Rancher has an easier install, but less responsive controls.

Do you think Red Hat OpenShift delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Yes

Did Red Hat OpenShift live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Red Hat OpenShift go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Red Hat OpenShift again?

Yes

I would recommend it, especially after the broadcom merger with vmware, to anyone that is now prices out of their software, or simply not willing to deal with the new VMWare terms. Additionally, I would recommend it to anyone trying to step into container based networks.
